  • NEET Qualifying vs NEET Ranking (Very Important)
  • Many students misunderstand this.
  • High Rank → Required for Government MBBS seats in India
  • Qualifying NEET → Enough for MBBS abroad
For MBBS abroad:
  • You only need to qualify NEET
  • Rank does not matter
  • Marks do not affect admission quality abroad
  • This is why MBBS abroad is a practical option for students who miss Indian seats.
NEET Validity for MBBS Abroad
  • As per current NMC norms:
  • NEET qualification is valid for 3 years for MBBS abroad admissions

2. Why MBBS Abroad is a Government-Approved Option

India produces lakhs of NEET aspirants every year, but:

  • Government MBBS seats are very limited
  • Private medical colleges charge extremely high fees
  • Many capable students are forced to drop their dreams

To address this gap, the Government of India allows students to pursue MBBS abroad, under strict regulations.

MBBS abroad is:
  • Legal
  • Regulated
  • Recognised
  • Widely chosen by Indian students for decades

3. Role of NMC (National Medical Commission

The National Medical Commission (NMC) is the apex regulatory body for medical education in India.

  • Sets rules for MBBS in India and abroad
  • Defines eligibility, duration, syllabus, and internship norms
  • Decides whether a foreign medical degree is valid in India
NMC Guidelines for Foreign Medical Colleges
  • A foreign medical college is acceptable only if ALL conditions are met:
1. Recognition in Home Country
  • The university must be recognised by the medical authority of that country
  • The graduate should be eligible to practice medicine in that country
2. Course Duration
  • Minimum 54 months (4.5 years) of academic education
  • Mandatory 12 months internship
  • Total duration = 6 years
3. Medium of Instruction
  • Teaching must be in English
  • Clinical training also in English
4. Curriculum Standards
  • Subjects must match Indian MBBS syllabus
  • Para-clinical subjects
  • Clinical subjects
  • Adequate patient exposure is compulsory
5. Single-Window Education
  • No distance education
  • No part-time degrees
  • Entire course must be completed in one recognised university
  • Medfly works only with universities that fully comply with these rules.
