Advice to Parents and Applicants:
Studying MBBS is very difficult and only those with genuine interest and the willingness to work extremely hard should attempt to study. Both candidates and parents are advised against choosing these subjects without proper thought.
Weak academic foundation and studying under family pressure against the interests of the candidates can lead to depression, drug addiction, dropouts, financial loss and sometimes suicides.
Parents are requested not to persuade their wards to study these subjects for their personal pride and satisfaction.
Studying medicine to please parents can be sometimes devastating to both parents and their wards. It is always wise to study a subject of your interest.
