HELLO R SANTHOSH

First of all, I want to tell you that I don’t suggest Russia to anyone because of the Language issue which no one tells you about. First 3 years they teach in English and then they only teach in RUSSIAN language which is pretty much difficult.

Reading,learning and speaking Russian is not that difficulty but studying in some other language ? So, instead of spending 50–60 lacs INR just for the tuition fees and capitation amount for a private college where there are no teachers, no infrastructure, no opportunities to excel. Studying abroad is the best option in that case

most importantly you should consider these 3.

1. Your budget.

2. The Structure of Medical education.

3. Living standards of the particular country.

Rest all the reasons are secondary and they don't matter much.

1.Budget is really very crucial in deciding your destination. If you want the most economical then it has to be the Philippines as you won't get everything over there and you've to compromise with some things for sure because you just can't get everything. When you are paying the least, you can expect the best. Hope you're getting my point. If you have no issues with the budget then, Georgia would be the best choice for you. But if you want to go with the affordable option then Ukraine has an edge over all the countries.

Preference according to budget would be

Philippines > Ukraine > Georgia .

2. Structure of Medical education. By this I mean the number of years you have to study there for the MBBS. In Philippines it's 1.5+3+1, Basic sciences, MD and then internship respectively. As they're teaching all medical subjects in just 3 years in Philippines it becomes very difficult to cope up with the curriculum. For Georgia it's like 5+1, MD program is of 5 years and then 1 year internship and there also you've to study a lot to match up with the academics and your self studies and nowadays some of the universities in Georgia have started merging their curriculum with the USMLE database which helps students for their PG studies. In Ukraine it's 6 years of MD, why I prefer this is because it is pretty much relaxed if you want to concentrate more on your self studies and your PG preparation or FMGE. You get enough time to manage everything.

Preference according to structure of Medical education would be:

Georgia > Ukraine > Philippines .

3. Living standards : It certainly is very important because it is directly proportional to the resources and exposure you'll get whilst studying and staying there. None of these country is super developed but I can for sure give you an idea to make up an image and think accordingly. Ukraine being in the western side has more influence of European Union. Infrastructure is surely world class and you get all sorts of facilities over here. The opportunities and luxury which you get to attend the medical conferences all over the European union countries is a great thing to experience and cherish when you are in your undergraduate course. Georgia is a blend of Soviet union and European infrastructure and now they are even incorporating the latest technologies. For Philippines it's just ok ok as you can't expect much after paying that much but in the best universities like Emilio and Perpetual they are good to consider if you only want Philippines.

Preference according to the exposure and infrastructure should be like:

Ukraine > Georgia > Philippines

To sum it up I can say that,

if you are very tight in budget then opt for Philippines,

If you have no problem with the finances and ample money then Georgia is the best option for you,

But if you want a great quality in affordable price then Ukraine is waiting for you.

HOPE IT HELPS

ALL THE BEST
