Life of Indian students while studying MBBS in Bangladesh

The weather and culture of Bangladesh are the same as that of India. Food habits of people in Bangladesh are same as that of India. Indian food is easily available. Students going for MBBS in Bangladesh need not worry about food as both vegetarian and non-vegetarian food is easily accessible.

The language spoken in Bangladesh includes English, Bengali, Hindi, Urdu, Arabic. A large number of Tamil, Hindi, Punjabi, Oriya, Gujarati and Marathi speaking students are already studying in Bangladesh.

All these factors not only make it easier for Indian students to get acclimatised but also give them a feeling of being at home.

Bangladesh is safe for girls and boys alike and being in a group of native Indians will make it easier to get help in case of an emergency. Being a dry nation (no alcohol country and drug consumption is illegal) adds up to the safety factor while alleviating the fears of the parents. Parents can breathe easy and have a peace of mind sending their son/daughter for MBBS in Bangladesh.

There is separate hostel facility for boys and girls in every college and there are women-only colleges too in Bangladesh.

Since getting admission in India is getting increasingly difficult year after year with the number of candidates ever increasing and the number of seats not being able to keep pace, MBBS in Bangladesh is the best alternative for Indian MBBS aspirants to get their MBBS degree from.

MBBS in Bangladesh Review

Vyom Jayaswal has visited many medical colleges in Bangladesh and collected reviews from the Indian students who are studying there. The quality of education is excellent and students are happy with it. As far as living standards are concerned, Bangladesh is still behind India and countries such as Russia and Ukraine. However, you will get hostels and you are going there to study so these things do not matter much. Here are some MBBS in Bangladesh review videos:


MCI Screening Test Passing Percentage Bangladesh

Bangladesh is one of the most suitable countries for MBBS abroad for Indian students. There are many similarities between the medical education of India and Bangladesh. This is shown in the FMGE results of Indian students after MBBS in Bangladesh.

Between 2012-21, the overall MCI Screening Test passing percentage from Bangladesh was higher than the overall FMGE result of the following countries:

  • China
  • Malaysia
  • Germany
  • Kazakhstan
  • Nepal
  • Armenia
  • Belarus
  • Belize
  • Bulgaria
  • Kyrgyzstan
  • Latvia
  • Russia
  • Saint Kits & Nevis
  • Ukraine
  • Moldova
  • Netherlands
  • Philippines (in some years)
  • Romania
  • Saudi Arabia
  • St Lucia
  • Tajikistan
  • Uzbekistan

It does not mean that the other options are not good. There are good, average, and bad medical colleges in every country, even India and Bangladesh. Going to a good medical college in Ukraine will be better than going to a bad medical college in Bangladesh or the Philippines. The FMGE passing percentages of Bangladesh and the Philippines were almost the same.

There are also some countries where the MCI screening test passing percentage of not even one college or university was good, eg., Kazakhstan, Belarus, etc. If you are confused about which country or college will be best for you, then get in touch with us for admission counselling – 9899566002.
