For decades, the escalating costs of pursuing a higher education degree in the home country have become a major concern for the majority of the middle-class segment of the population.
Becoming a student of one of India's reputed public medical colleges is highly competitive as the acceptance rate is at about 1%.
For most candidates, the admissions process has been highly challenging for students, with a large number of candidates contesting for a minimal number of seats.
On the other hand, private medical colleges have additional requirements to qualify for admission while also charging a premium that is well beyond the financial reach of an average family.
As a result, a significant number of candidates are opting to pursue a globally recognized MBBS degree in other countries.
