Thread: Top medical universities in Russia ?

Im looking forward to studying medicine in a good university, but my options are short and my budget greatly effects my choice of school (12000 USD per year "maybe a bit more" ), I am considering studying in Russia, please i need a list of the best universities in Russia.

+ are there medical universities in Russia that teaches in english ?

thanks in advance

I think one of the best MD program in Russia is offered at Moscow Medical Academy - I.M. Sechnov. This is a top-rated program leading to MD in six-years starting after completion of high shool. The program is taught in English; however, student MUST speak Russian by the third academic year because during the third-year student will have to communicate with patients (almost all are Russian.) This school is more than 250 years old, number one in Russia, has a 3080-bed hospital, state-of-the-art facilities, and it is ranked numbr two by UNESCO. The MD degree earned here enable the holder to work anywhere in the world, period.
The cost of study is about $7,500 per year including books, medical insurance, and all other fees. Accomodation in 2-people per room dorm is from $300, and for food, etc. you may need an additional 200 per month. A budget of $500 per month will do ok. There is a website for the school that can be found at mma.ru; however, for addmission it is highly recommended to use an agent, one of them is Mededrussia.com or mededabroad.com I dealt with this guy and the help is great particularly with passing the entrance exam and facilitating the visa, etc. At this time there are 2 American student in the MD program and another one in the DDS program.
The steps that need to be completed to practice in the US are posted at mededrussia and it is rather very simple, the USMLE and ECFMG

I study in Russia and just want to let know,it was waist of time and money

There are about 60 medical schools in Russia. To claim all in total a person has to collect information about almost shools and write an article about the system with all negative details collected.
Even if you did not enjoy studying at one precise city and/or medical school, it is useful to publish explanation of your experience. This will help other applicants in their search. Otherwise, you post looks a bit usefuless.

Presently, there are many students pursuing qualifications in Russia. Some of whom are foreign students that chose Russia’s standard of Education to pursue their dreams and become doctors. Those who succeed are those with a strong willpower and desire to learn. Since being in a foreign country in itself can be distracting you will have students who aren't able to stay focused and will easily give up. Medicine is a lifelong journey and to succeed one has to sacrifice to achieve their goals.


Medicine in Russia

People who said studying medical in Russia is a waste of time and money is because only one reason. They are too pampered at home. They cant survive by their own in foreign country. If only one person said its a waste of time and money, why every year there are thousand of people graduated there? Why people still opts for Russia Medical studies? You must know how to choose wisely. If you study in universities like Volgograd, Kurst, Nizhny which is located outskirt of Moscow of course you dont like it. Its common sense.. Just ask yourself if others can do it why not you?
