What is the duration of MBBS at Kemerovo State Medical University?

International students are allowed to work a maximum of 20 hours per week or 4 hours a day in Russia. This is in line with the general part time work hour limit in other popular European countries. 

International students are advised to stay within the allowed part time work hour limit, as failing to do so, may lead to the revocation of their Russia study visa and consequently, deportation from the country.     

There's not much to seperate between Kemerovo State Medical University and Perm State Medical University, both offer a six year MBBS program, with five years of academics and one year of internships/placements.

Both universities are recognised by global medical bodies such as World Health Organization (WHO), National Medical Commission, and the Health Ministry of the Russian Government. 

However, KSMU Russia offers a more affordable option for MBBS in Russia, with a per year tuition cost: USD 4,500 (INR 3.94 L), while Perm State on the other hand charges an annual cost of USD 5,500 (INR 4.82 L). 

KSMU Russia had a very respectable FMGE pass percentage for the year 2023. The Kemerovo State Medical University FMGE pass percentage of Indian students stood at 40.91% for 2023, per the official data made available by the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences. 

Per the official stats, of the 22 students who appeared for the FMGE exam in 2023, 9 were able to successfully clear the same. 

Kemerovo State Medical University can be considered an ideal place to study for Indian students seeking affordable medical studies. 

The MBBS cost is way lower as compared to some reputed Indian medical institutions, and students are free to come back and practice in India, after the completion of their studies, after a successful clearance of the FMGE exam.

It also allows students to expand their horizons, gaining a good understanding of the European culture, and the standard of medical education in the world. 

Overall, KSMU Russia is certainly a viable option for Indian students seeking medical education abroad. 

The students applying to Kemerovo State Medical University are required to have Physics, Chemistry, Biology with minimum 50% in 12th class. 

Additionally, NEET is required as a standardized entrance test as part of KSMU application process.
