M.S. Ramaiah Medical College (Banglore, Karnataka, India) put an ad in
the INDIA ABROAD stating that "You can join the Medical College after
passing high school with Physics, Chemistry and Biology. Only a few
seats are reserved for U.S. Students of Indian Origin and your seat can
be confirmed on first-come basis by the Authorised Representative."
How do donation medical (and engineering) colleges like M.S.Ramaiah
(above) rate facility-wise and faculty-wise? How much money must be
"donated" to get into these donation colleges? What other requirements
do these donation colleges have? What has the general reaction been
to these offers by the Indians (deshis) who live in the States? A
family friend's child who grew up in the US & Canada went to the
Dominican Republic to get his M.D. Won't the grads of these medical
colleges have trouble in the U.S.? How do they usually fare on the
ECFMG and on getting residency at hospitals? How are grads of donation
colleges treated in India for jobs? How do the state and federal
governments in India look at these colleges?
