Subho Dasgupta

15 Jan 22

Kolkata Medical College and Madras Medical College both are well-reputed medical colleges. Here is a comparison of the institutes.

Both institutes offer decent academics. But due to immense political pressure in Kolkata, there are routine interferences.
There are multiple hostels at both medical colleges. Madras Medical College Hostels are under MCI scanner, so cleanliness is a priority there. At Kolkata Medical College, only the Main boy’s hostel is under MCI scanner.
Both colleges boast of having one of the best faculties in India.

Both medical colleges were established way back, thus the infrastructural facilities offered are similar.
