MBBSCouncil have come up with top 10 ranking factors for medical colleges, based on the Medical Council of India Assessment reports. Based on these rankings, you can come up with college choices during the online counselling.

Only top 40 colleges are listed in NIRF Ranking because not many medical colleges apply for NIRF evaluation. Last year, close to 120 medical colleges applied for evaluation out of the total 500+ medical colleges in India. Some of the premier state government medical colleges such as Stanley Medical College, Osmania Medical College, Gandhi Medical College, etc did not participate in the NIRF evaluation last year.

You are running this organization as a responsible citizen, which is a good cause intended to create awareness among the ignorant, less knowledgeable and less fortunate parents with some reasonable charges to help their dream medical career
Even though, every student have their own preference in choosing medical college, there are some common factors which can help MBBS aspirants and parents do judge the quality of medical college.
MBBSCouncil App contains College Ranking Facility which will help NEET aspirants to rank colleges based on various quality factors such as age of college, number PG courses conducted by the medical college, Average Patients Visiting Outpatients Per day, Total Teaching Beds, etc which will help them during choice filling to decide the order of preference.
The primary factor for college section is tuition fees charged by the medical colleges. Based on the types of medical college and chosen quota, tuition fees varies from Rs 1360 per year to Rs 50 lakhs/year.
Government college tuition fees itself varies from state to state and in some states like Uttar Pradesh, tuition fees varies from college to college. So candidate should rank colleges based on the tuition fees and pick the best ones based on other parameters such as location, patient flow, PG courses, etc
You can find tuition fees for all medical colleges in India under the college details section of the MBBSCouncil Android App. You can also rank colleges using the college ranking facility available for tuition fees under various quotas such as govt college, state govt quota, and management quota.
Many parents use age of medical college as one of their primary factor in ranking colleges situated in other states during All India Counselling. This also plays key role in determining the quality of private medical colleges. One needs to make sure that there is no debarment history when it comes to private medical colleges.
When it comes to deemed university medical colleges, you should check the year of establishment of the medical college rather than the deemed university. It is obvious that deemed university status would be given only after attaining educational excellence which takes minimum of 25 years.
It takes minimum of 5 years for medical colleges to be fully operational. This is the reason why Medical council of India gives permission to medical colleges for first few years and later convert their status to recognized after sufficient infrastructure and facility is setup.
The total number of MBBS Seats in Medical College also can be used to determine the quality of medical college. National Medical Commission(NMC) has norms which specifies the infrastructure, faculties, facilities, resident doctors based on the number of seats. To get approval for 150 MBBS Seats, it is mandatory to have 300 Beds and average patient flow of 300/day. Medical Colleges that have 250 MBBS seats can be considered as the best medical colleges which good infrastructure and facilities. These medical colleges would have more than 1200 beds and more than 2000 patients visit them everyday.
The number of PG courses in a medical college determines how many specialized departments are there in a medical college. More the number of departments, better for clinical practice. Doctors who study PG courses are called as junior interns during the post graduate course and senior residents after completing the course.
UG Students get guidance for clinical practice from junior as well as senior resident doctors. The number of super specialty courses and post graduate courses is one of the key ranking factor for choosing a particular medical college. If you are looking for PG course admission, then you need to check the number of DM/MCH super specialty courses conducted by the medical college.
Medical Education mainly depends on the clinical practice. Clinical Practice starts during the Anatomy class of Ist Year MBBS, so it is even more important to pick colleges which have high patient flow. There are many private medical colleges in many states that have poor patient flow resulting in temporary debarment of medical colleges to conduct MBBS Course. During 2018, 83 medical colleges were debarred from upgradation or lost is recognition status. You need to check if the medical college has any debarment history in the past and avoid them during college selection or choice filling.
Another important factor which can be used to judge the quality of clinical practice of medical college hospital is the total number of In-patient beds in the hospital. More than 500 beds in the affiliated hospital is considered to be good medical college. You need to add beds in each department of the medical hospital to calculate the total beds.
You need to know medical college types, college ranking, tuition fees, seat matrix, quota, reservation, domicile rules, counselling rounds, state rank list, choice filling, allotment rules, up-gradation rules, compulsory service bond, penalty, intern stipend, career prospects, last year closing rank cut off, in order to avoid making any mistake during counselling.
Central govt run Medical Colleges do not insist on compulsory rural service but many state governments asks medical UG students to sign bond for minimum of 1 year for compulsory rural service. The number of years varies from state to state. If you want to skip compulsory service, then you need to pay penalty ranging between Rs 5 lakhs and Rs 40 lakhs. ESI Medical Colleges mandates 1 year compulsory rural service and AFMC mandates 7 years compulsory service. Penalty amount in Armed Forces Medical College if you resign before 7 years is Rs 60 lakhs.
University college of Medical Sciences and Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University has 50% internal PG Quota for students who studied from the university in its affiliated colleges. JIPMER Puducherry, Aligarh Muslim University, Banaras Hindu University, Many Gujarat Universities, Armed Forces Medical College Pune also provides internal PG quota for its students. NEET PG cut off will be less through internal quota if PG to MBBS seat ratio is on the higher side.
Even though, it is not major factor while deciding college preference, many top scoring candidates say that internship stipend is biggest advantage of joining central government run medical colleges apart from the no bond for compulsory service.
After 4.5 years of study, you have to do 1 year internship training in the hospital. You will work in various departments and during that time, you will get stipend. The stipend amount varies from state to state and is given below.

Medical Colleges situated in heart of the city attracts lot of patients which gives exposure to spectrum of diseases during the study as well as during the clinical clerkship. Students who study far away from their native should make sure that there is air connectivity if they choose smaller towns.
Another important thing to consider medical colleges in cities is availability of PG coaching centers. Even-though there are plenty of options available for online coaching if you are keen to go for offline coaching, it would be wise to choose colleges located in big cities.
MBBSCouncil App contains College Ranking Facility which will help NEET aspirants to rank colleges based on various quality factors such as age of college, number PG courses conducted by the medical college, Average Patients Visiting Outpatients Per day, Total Teaching Beds, etc which will help them during choice filling to decide the order of preference.
