    They give practical exposure way more than theory. It could be seen in both good and bad way. Patient exposure and learning is excellent. One learns how to deal with patients and life here. Okokokish

    College Infra

    Pgimer has excellent infrastructure though it doesn't has classroom for BPT course yet but they are working on it. Other than that the ICU, OT setups and hospital setups are better than most other. Hehe

    They don't take the headache of your placements. It is a medical institute; not a random college where your placement problems are considered. But the Tag of student of PGIMER does the job everywhere.
