FAQs

General Medicine & Surgery — Common Questions

What NEET PG rank for govt. MD/MS?+
MD DVL fills within rank ~500 (most competitive). General Medicine fills ~5,000–15,000. Pathology/Physiology more accessible. Our counsellors map your exact rank to realistic options.
What is the MD/MS stipend?+
Govt. MD/MS residents receive ₹50,000–₹80,000/month stipend depending on state and year. At AIIMS/PGIMER, stipends are higher. Effectively makes govt. PG near-free.
MD vs. DNB — which is better?+
DNB at premier hospital (Tata Memorial, Medanta, AIIMS-affiliated) can equal or exceed MD at mediocre private college in training quality. Patient volume is the key metric.
NEET PG rank for WB govt. MD seats?+
WBMCC PG fills MD General Medicine within rank 10,000–30,000 (General). SSKM/IPGMER fills earliest. Our counsellors provide precise WB-specific cutoff data.
Is bond service required at WB govt. colleges?+
WB govt. MD/MS: 1–2 years compulsory service at district hospitals after degree. Bond penalty: ₹5–25L for violation. We advise on bond terms per college.
DNB vs. MD in surgery?+
Both are equivalent for clinical practice and MCh eligibility. Training quality depends on hospital. High-volume hospitals (Tata, Apollo, AIIMS-affiliated) offer excellent DNB training.
