Established in 1987 and recognised by the National Medical Commission (NMC), Pramukhswami Medical College has built a steady reputation. Bhaikaka University holds a NAAC 'A' grade, and in the NIRF 2023 rankings, the medical college secured the 43rd position among medical institutions in India, giving you a fair idea of its academic standing. The primary course here is the Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS), alongside several postgraduate MD and MS programs. Admission to the MBBS program is strictly based on your NEET UG score, with seats allocated through the state-level counselling conducted by ACPUGMEC, Gujarat. There is no direct admission or management quota in the traditional sense, as all seats are filled based on merit through the centralized process. For students planning for the 2025-2026 academic session, it's important to look at the recent fee structure. The annual tuition fee for government quota seats has been approximately ₹8.25 lakhs, while the management quota seats are priced significantly higher at around ₹18 lakhs per year. After completing the 4.5-year course, students undertake a mandatory one-year rotating internship, which is a standard practice for medical graduates. Specific stipend details for the 2025 and 2026 batches are not yet released, but this internship provides the crucial hands-on clinical experience required before you can get your license to practice.
