Suggestions for study tracker template

I am a medical student ( 2nd year ) and want to build a study tracker

I have three major subjects : pathology , pharmacology and microbiology and two minor subjects in focus : physiology ( from the year before ) and medicine ( that will come later on but I have decided to integrate it and start early )

Any suggestions for addition or improvement ?

( built this using claude )

Batchmate showed my msg to HOD

I'm a Batch CR. And as having a thing to break the toxicity of previous cr of just doing proxy of friends.....I started the culture of all present despite someone is my friend or not. And we were communicating really well. Finally a trust was building and everyone was getting out of selfishness to help and accomodate each other.

So In February a girl from my batch had attended a marriage for a week..... our ortho is very strict for posting attendance but I did mark her present whole week. Next week.... Comes the ward end on Saturday and in that week we also had a mass bunk on Thursday. And this girl is like no no I won't comply I will go ...teko jo karna hai krle in typical kathu accent gujju messages. And so I wrote in group that I will not do proxy next time onwards.

Fast forward this kathiywadi girl showed my message about not doing proxy to HOD saying I'm threatening to not let them attend. I had a very good rapport and all went downhill to thing that HOD now started being toxic to me. If I would not be there he would call me and ask why I'm taking a holiday.

So I caught her in front of whole batch and had a heated discussion....next comes her boyfriend to save her ass and he started acting like that I cannot give dhamki about proxy and got down some length of his jeans in front of class for showing that he is wearing underwear and not diaper to prove that he is a man and saying all with maturity and I'm immature for writing such messages . My batchmates have shot a video of it. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Lmao ....I mean people be 24 yr old in final year and acting like this. Moreover they both tried to get sign in batch for removing me only to there disappointment 12 ppl signed.

Dude thinking showing underwear makes them both play politics. They called previous CR 14 times on day of election and I had already resigned so it was all open.... Even previous CR asked to not get him involved in their mess. No one stood up and my Dean asked me to continue.... And hence they have to come everyday and sit there because obviously I will not do their proxy.

Occasionally I get very angry thoughts but I have made a peace that I cannot change people and thus now I have also become toxic. 🤣🤣🤣

T.S Misra: Where Students Are Treated Like Criminals

Hey guys 🫶🏻 long time no post regarding this college. Honestly, after the response and engagement from all of you on my previous posts the authorities actually came a little “in line” and improved a few things.
But as we always say:
“KUTTE KI DUM TEDHI KI TEDHI HI REHTI HAI.”
Because once again these people have started a brand new drama this time regarding carrying phones in lecture halls.
Look at the notice I attached. These geniuses have now decided that if your phone is found in class they can seize it and impose a ridiculous fine of ₹25,000. LIKE WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE? Is this a medical college or some North Korean military camp run by frustrated dictators!!
And yes they actually started surprise checking classes like some police raid. Around 20–25 phones were seized in just two days back.When students requested their phones back A.K. Srivastava proudly said
“This is your first warning, so I won’t impose fine, but I’ll keep your phones with me for 2–3 days.”
Seriously?? What kind of behavior is this? Most students have only one phone. How are we supposed to contact parents, handle OTPs, emergencies, banking work, or anything important? And if anything happens to the phone while it’s with them, who takes responsibility? Nobody.
And let’s not forget how during exams they secretly took students bags to demo rooms checked them without consent and seized phones from every department. Privacy? Respect? Basic dignity? Apparently none of that exists here.
And before people start defending this nonsense yes we understand that using phones in lecture halls is not good. Fine. But THIS is not how you handle it. You don’t threaten students with absurd fines and seize personal property for days like local thugs running a recovery business. This is a medical college not a dictatorship simulator.

Another masterpiece from management: students leaving early or returning late from vacation are fined ₹1000 per day. Why exactly am I paying money to go to my own home? Students living far away barely get a few days at home after travel, yet these people only care about extracting money in the name of “attendance.” That excuse is complete bluff at this point.
This college genuinely feels less like an educational institution and more like a business empire fueled by ego, control, and exploitation. Management has zero coordination, zero empathy, and zero respect for students. Every new circular feels like another attempt to prove who has more power instead of actually improving academics or student life.

At the end, I just want to say this again very clearly:

DON’T TAKE ADMISSION IN THIS COLLEGE.

This is the harsh reality behind the sugar coated advertisements and fake promises. Don’t fall for the marketing. Don’t fall for the “discipline” narrative. What they call discipline is often just humiliation, control, and harassment packaged professionally on official letterheads.

Finding job as an mbbs graduate

I 24F completed my internship last month from one of the top GMC of kolkata and i have been looking for a job as a RMO since then. I have mailed almost 50 hr f different hospital and didnot get a reply of a single mail. From last 10 days i have visited so many hospitals.

The guards will take your CV or the reception people..Most of the hospital wont even let you meet the hr...

After clearing neet ug with a drop and then struggling throughout mbbs this is what i got...roaming from hospital to hospital with a cv in such a hot weather and getting offers like 40k a month for working 6 days a week...

I regret chossing this course every single day every moment...no respect from even the security guard when you go there searching for a job...

I worked hard to clear an all india level exam,studied so hard in mbbs and now facing all this...

If any senior from kolkata is reading this kindly help

Be honest — does MBBS ever stop feeling overwhelming?

I’m asking this out of genuine curiosity.

Before entering medicine, MBBS looked like a dream — white coat, respect, stable career, meaningful work. But after talking to some seniors and reading different experiences online, it feels like many students struggle silently with pressure, exams, expectations, and constant comparison.

So I wanted to ask people who are actually living this life:

  1. Does MBBS eventually become manageable, or does the stress just become normal over time?
  2. Was there a point where things finally started making sense for you?

Not looking for motivation speeches — just honest experiences from real students.

The complete Information of MGM Medical College Navi Mumbai (and Aurangabad, Vashi & Nerul branches). 2025-26 Exact Fees, Cutoffs, and the Deemed "Merit" trap. MGM The Hidden Gem Of Maharashtra?

Hey everyone. RE-NEET 2026 is officially announced, the answer keys of NEET on 3rd may everyone has it. obsessively calculating their scores, and my phone has not stopped ringing for the last two weeks. My dog Kaddu is literally hiding under my desk right now to escape the constant buzzing.

Since a massive chunk of students are now realising they are landing in the 300-450 score range, Deemed Universities are suddenly the only backup plan left. I am getting a mountain of DMs specifically about MGM Medical College.

But MGM has aggressively expanded recently, and fake agents are using this confusion to scam parents. Before you lock MGM into your budget or pay someone for a "direct seat," you need to understand exactly how the system works across their four different branches.

Here is the raw, ground reality for the 2025-26 academic session.

1. The "Deemed Merit" Trap

Let me clear this up immediately because it catches middle-class families off guard every year. MGM Institute of Health Sciences is a Deemed University. This means there is NO cheap State Merit Quota (like the ₹1 Lakh/year seats in government colleges).

  • Every single seat is allotted through the central MCC (DGHS) counselling portal.
  • 85% of seats fall under the Management / Deemed Paid Quota (This is technically their "Merit" seat because it's allotted strictly on your All India Rank, but it carries a massive fee).
  • 15% of seats are reserved for the NRI Quota. If an agent tells you they can get you a "Maharashtra state merit" seat at MGM for ₹8 Lakhs a year, block their number. They are lying to steal your advance.

2. The 2025-26 Exact Fee Structures & Branches

MGM isn't just one college anymore. They have four distinct branches with different seat matrices and fees. Here is the official data for this session:

A. MGM Medical College, Kamothe (The Main Navi Mumbai Campus)

  • This is the oldest, flagship campus with a massive 1700-bed hospital and great patient footfall.
  • Total Intake: 200 Seats (170 Mgmt / 30 NRI)
  • Management/Paid Quota Fee: ₹ 23,50,000 per year.
  • NRI Quota Fee: $60,000 USD per year.
  • The Hidden Extras: You must pay ₹ 1,70,500 (One-time misc & deposit) + ₹ 1,17,500 (University Eligibility) + ₹ 2,20,000 per year for Hostel & Mess.
  • The Reality: Your actual first-year check will be closer to ₹ 28.5 Lakhs.

B. MGM Medical College, Aurangabad (Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar)

  • The second established campus, heavily sought after for its rural/urban patient mix.
  • Total Intake: 250 Seats (approx 212 Mgmt / 38 NRI)
  • Management/Paid Quota Fee: ₹ 23,50,000 per year.
  • NRI Quota Fee: $60,000 USD per year.
  • The Hidden Extras: ₹ 1,60,000 (One-time misc) + ₹ 1,17,500 (Eligibility).

C. MGM Medical College, Vashi

  • A newly established branch. The infrastructure is premium, but the hospital is still building its daily OPD numbers compared to Kamothe.
  • Total Intake: 100 Seats (85 Mgmt / 15 NRI)
  • Management/Paid Quota Fee: ₹ 23,50,000 per year.
  • The Hidden Extras: ₹ 1,05,000 (One-time misc) + ₹ 2,46,000 per year for Hostel.

D. MGM Medical College, Nerul

  • The newest micro-expansion in Navi Mumbai.
  • Total Intake: 50 Seats (42 Mgmt / 8 NRI)
  • Management/Paid Quota Fee: ₹ 23,50,000 per year.
  • NRI Quota Fee: $60,000 USD per year.

3. The Cutoff Reality (What AIR do you actually need?)

  • Because everyone wants to be near Mumbai, the Management Quota seats at Kamothe and Aurangabad generally close around AIR 1,60,000 to 2,10,000 in Round 1 (Roughly 350-450+ marks).
  • For the Vashi and Nerul campuses, because they are newer and the ROI is heavily debated due to the high fees, the cutoffs drop slightly lower into the 2,50,000+ rank range.
  • The NRI Quota: If your uncle in the US or Dubai is willing to sponsor you and your family can afford the $60k/year, the cutoff for NRI seats literally drops to the absolute qualifying baseline (often pushing AIR 10 Lakhs to 12 Lakhs).

4. The Registration Mechanics

To even try for these seats, you have to register on the MCC portal and park a ₹ 2,00,000 refundable security deposit upfront. Do not randomly fill these choices if you cannot afford the ₹ 1.25 Crore total course budget, because if you are allotted a seat in Round 2 and drop it, the government keeps your 2 Lakhs.

Sit down with your parents this weekend and show them these exact numbers.

I'll be chained to my laptop today, sorting out client files. If you are confused about whether you should prioritise Kamothe over Aurangabad, or if you need to know if your specific relative qualifies for the NRI sponsorship rules.

Medical Students Needed for Research Study on Banking, Spending & Financial Behaviour

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeGZWdJU37JYDgXkitQRmT1ZPR_4SBnMRW6iJfpP-ctUz0u0A/viewform?usp=dialog
I’m currently working on a research project focused on understanding the financial behaviour, banking experiences, and financial awareness of medical students in India. The study aims to explore how medical students manage day-to-day finances, use banking services, think about savings/investments, and how academic lifestyles influence these decisions.

The form will only take a few minutes to complete, and all responses will be used strictly for academic purposes.

It would also really help if you could share it with other medical students you know. Thank you so much!

How medical college slowly changed me in 6 months

I joined medical college thinking it would be the beginning of a new life. New people, new experiences, close friendships, maybe even people I’d finally feel understood around. But somewhere in these past 6 months, I feel like I’ve changed a lot

I did make friends. Some stayed, some drifted away, some situations ended because of me, some because people just changed. I got attached too quickly to people, overthought a lot of things, expected depth from temporary bonds and ended up hurting myself more than anyone else. I think somewhere along the way I forgot how to just “be” around people without constantly questioning where I stand with them

What hurts the most is not even losing people, but realising how emotionally exhausting it gets when you keep trying to hold connections together while feeling unwanted at the same time

Medical college has honestly made me more isolated than I’ve ever been. Academically I’m struggling, mentally I’m tired, socially I’ve stopped expecting much from anyone anymore. I used to yearn a lot for friendships and closeness, but now I just feel drained. At this point I genuinely just want peace. I want to focus on surviving first year, fixing my health, becoming disciplined and learning how to be okay with myself

Maybe I’ll still make meaningful friendships in the future, maybe I won’t. But I think I’ve stopped chasing the idea of “finding my people” desperately. I’ve realised not everyone gets a perfect friend group or a “college family” and maybe that’s okay

And honestly, if there’s one thing I’ve learnt, it’s this, don’t lose yourself trying to be liked by people. Be kind, be genuine, but don’t build your entire self-worth around friendships, replies, attention or validation. People come and go a lot faster in life than we expect, so learn how to stay with yourself too

For now, I just want to learn how to enjoy my own company again

Hi everyone! I am a doctoral candidate doing my Psy.D. I’m currently conducting a research study exploring marital experiences, cultural beliefs, and women’s well-being, and I would really appreciate your support. I would be very grateful if you took the time to share this as well.

Why this study is important:
Marital sexual trauma is a complex and often under-discussed issue, especially across different cultural contexts. Many women’s experiences remain unheard due to stigma, cultural expectations, and a lack of open conversation. This study aims to better understand how cultural values, gender roles, and beliefs about consent shape these experiences and their impact on mental health (such as anxiety, depression, and trauma).

The value of your participation:
Your voice can help:

  • Increase awareness of an overlooked issue
  • Contribute to more culturally sensitive mental health care
  • Inform better education, support systems, and future research

What to expect:

  • A brief online survey
  • Completely anonymous (no identifying information collected)
  • Your responses will remain confidential
  • Takes approximately 25-30 mins.

To Participate: 

  • Citizens of India
  • Between the ages of 18 & 70 
  • Currently married or previously married 
  • Identifies as a heterosexual woman 
  • Fluent in English

 

Incentive:
Participants can choose to enter a raffle to receive a gift card as a thank-you for their time.

Guidance for NEET PG

I'm 21 years old. I am in MBBS 2nd year in a private college. My parents have spent 1cr on my college. I want to give something back to them by getting into a PG in my first attempt. I know it's a very vague request. But please guide me. I will probably not be able to buy any platform right now so free and paid both resources would be appreciated. I want to get into a government college in Mumbai so that I don't have to stay away from home anymore. Which means I want a rank of under 2000. I'm sorry if this seems unrealistic but there are a lot of emotions behind this question and I don't know where else to ask. For reference, my NEETUG score was 443.

My questions are

•Which lectures to watch of which specific faculty?

•Which questions to solve and how many?

•How long will it take to crack NEET?

•How hard is it?

•Which notes to read?

•How do I study in MBBS that will help me in NEET PG?

And anything else you would like to add that would help me achieve my goal in the next 3 years. :)

The Forgotten Giants: The Indian doctor in a sweltering Calcutta lab who saved 50 million children, and died in obscurity.

Sambhu Nath De. Hold that name for a moment.

He was born in 1915 in a small village in Bengal. He grew up in a world where cholera was the ultimate terror. It was a disease that could sweep through a village and drain the life out of a healthy adult in a matter of hours.

The global medical establishment knew about the cholera bacteria, but they were fundamentally blind to how it actually killed. They believed the bacteria invaded the bloodstream and caused systemic failure. Because they did not understand the mechanism, they could not build a simple cure.

In the 1950s, Dr. De was working as a researcher and pathologist at the Medical College in Calcutta. He did not have a multi-million-dollar Western laboratory. He did not have air conditioning. He was working in a suffocatingly hot, severely underfunded room, surrounded by one of the deadliest pathogens on earth. He decided to look where no one else was looking.

Through meticulous, grueling experiments using a rabbit model, he discovered something that shattered the established medical consensus. He proved that the cholera bacteria did not need to invade the bloodstream at all. Instead, it sat in the gut and secreted a deadly poison.

He discovered the cholera enterotoxin. He proved that it was this specific toxin that forced the human bowel to violently secrete massive amounts of fluid, leading to catastrophic dehydration and death.

He realized that if the disease was just a massive fluid drain caused by a local toxin, the treatment didn't require complex systemic drugs. It required fundamentally understanding fluid replacement.

His exact discovery provided the scientific bedrock for Oral Rehydration Therapy (ORT)—the simple mixture of water, salt, and sugar that forces the intestines to absorb fluid faster than the toxin can drain it.

He gave the world the cheapest, most effective medical intervention in the history of public health.

He did not receive the Nobel Prize. He was nominated multiple times, championed by Nobel laureates who recognized his genius, but the committee passed over him. The global spotlight shifted to Western institutions.

Dr. De did not fight for the fame. He retired quietly, living a modest life, and died in 1985 in absolute obscurity. Even within India, his name was largely forgotten by the institutions he served.

Today, every time a devastating flood or earthquake hits and cholera breaks out in the camps. Every time an ASHA worker in a remote village hands a simple ORS packet to a terrified mother. Every single one of the estimated 50 million children who have survived severe diarrheal diseases since the 1970s. They are all alive because of the quiet, relentless work he did in that hot room in Calcutta.

He was the man who disarmed cholera. Sambhu Nath De.

This is the kind of story PROFESSION exists to tell. Every healing profession has its forgotten giants. If you know one — share their story here.

PROFESSION — For every soul who chose to heal.

How do i motivate my depressed brother in 1st year MBBS?

My younger brother got govt college MBBS seat after 4 years drop in 2025.

He had worked very hard for this and watching him clear this exam finally was a source of great joy for our entire family.

However, he has become depressed because of the academic workload, feeling out of place among his peers, a general inferiority complex I believe. He failed in all internal exams and has talked many times about quitting college. I have tried to motivate him but nothing seems to get him out of his mental pit. It appears he has accepted that he can't complete this.

I am exhausted and don't know how do I help him. Watching him throw away such a beautiful opportunity which he worked so hard for makes me so sad, as well as my inability to help him.

Please Seniors who have completed MBBS or are in later years, how did you guys cope with the academic pressures and how do I help him?

Thanks
