Hello,
Nowadays, after completing an MD/MS, it is almost mandatory to pursue a DM/M.Ch as the number of PG seats available increases year after year, as does the competition. I'm listing here the MD/MS courses that students can take to get into the appropriate DM/M.Ch courses.
Varying states and institutes have different requirements for which super-specialty courses can be completed while completing which MD/MS courses. Because 90% of these conditions are the same in all institutes or states, students must manually check their local states' list of permitted super-specialty courses.
MCI Regulations are more significant than State and Institute rules. It describes all DM/ M. Ch courses as well as the prerequisite MD/ MD courses for a candidate to be qualified for super specialised courses.
According to MCI PG Medical Regulation 2000, the following MD courses are prerequisites for DM programmes.
