MBBS in Russia

Hello Medical Aspirants!
Welcome to this blog which will specially deal with medical opportunities in Russia.
Admissions to Russian universities has picked up after a six-year low following the amendment of the Indian Medical Council Act in March 2002.The act states that Indian students can seek admission to any state university in Russia listed in the directory of medical schools of the World Health Organization. Previously, only 11 universities offering bachelor of medicine/bachelor of surgery (MBBS) degree were recognized by the Indian government.

Fees for MBBS courses in Russia run from US$2,000 to US$3,000 depending on the institution. Only “leading” universities offer instruction in English.The Degree is recognised by WHO and the MBBS graduate can practice in India after clearing screening test by Medical Council of India.Fees in Medical Universities of China are almost same.
