Why Indian Students Choose MBBS Abroad

With over 24 lakh students competing for approximately 1,10,000 MBBS seats in India, thousands of NEET-qualified students explore MBBS abroad as a viable alternative. Countries like Russia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Philippines, Bangladesh, Nepal, and European nations offer WHO-recognized, NMC-listed medical programs at a fraction of Indian private college costs.
