Hear from students currently studying MBBS in Russia — placed by AMW Career Point.
I scored 480 in NEET and thought my dream of becoming a doctor was over. AMW counselled me the same day and I got admission in Kazan Federal University. Now I'm in Year 3 — the clinical training here is incredible.
The AMW team handled everything — from the university application to the flight tickets. Their local representative at Kazan received me at the airport. I never felt alone for a single day.
My parents were worried about safety and food in Russia. AMW arranged a call with a current student from my city already studying in Volgograd. That personal touch gave my family the confidence to say yes.
