Presently INDIA has 90,825 MBBS seats in 533 medical colleges of which 50 ℅ are government colleges and rest are the Government approved private medical colleges. Every year almost 16 lakh students of medical aspirants appear for NEET –UG exam, out of which 50℅ students are qualified for UG- NEET. But only 10% of students get admission for MBBS every year. The rest of the students don’t get an opportunity to study MBBS in India due to the lack of MBBS seats. Therefore, most of the students prefer to go abroad for MBBS study. After completing their education there, they either get some placement there or come to India to practice in medical service. The statistical report says that around 4 lakhs Indian students get admission for MBBS study abroad.      

 Indian medical students do not treat the study MBBS abroad better than in India because of many reasons. But there is very high competition in India to get MBBS admission because of the availability of more talented students. So they prefer to study MBBS abroad to full fill their ambition. Also, many medical colleges abroad take MBBS admission according to NEET scores. Therefore, it is easy to get admission to MBBS courses for them.    

Most people in India think that a foreign MBBS degree is of the same value in India but the students who pass from foreign medical colleges have to take the FMGE exam to practice in the medical field in India. Students from India also have to take the USMEL exam if they want to do MBBS in India. Similarly, foreign medical students have to pass the licensing exam to work in India. 

All Indian medical students and foreign medical graduates have to face the NEXT (National Exit Test) which is provided as the licensure test and PG entrance test. NEXT-1 will be operated for the first time in 2022.
