Ingush State University ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW

Right, so you're picturing yourself in a white lab coat, saving the world. But medical school is really expensive, right? You're probably looking for "cheap medical schools," and Ingush State University (ISU) in Russia popped up. Now you're thinking, "Okay, Russia. is this real?"

 

Break it down with me and see if ISU is even worth looking at, like we're sipping coffee and talking about your future. Get rid of the glossy brochures; let's be real.

 

First Things First: The "Can I Actually Practice Medicine?" Test

 

That's HUGE. The moment you even consider looking at anything else, you need to first determine if or not ISU is accepted by your home country's medical board. If you're from India, that's going straight over to the website for the National Medical Commission (NMC) and checking. Don't be held hostage by some internet page saying something. You need to know for certain yourself. This is the anchor, the unshakeable very first thing you need to do.

 

The Attractiveness of the Lower Price Point: Talking Money

 

Okay, let's be realistic, one of the biggest reasons you're even looking at ISU is probably going to be cost. Med school is expensive, and graduating without debt is highly appealing. I can tell you, from what I've experienced, you actually do get to spend much less here. However, and as I can stress too much, double check this with RUS OVERSEAS before you actually sign up to see what the real fees are. We provide authentic information.

 

Just don't forget to budget for it all: food expenses, transportation, visa fees, the random spontaneous buy. It does add up.

 

What Will You Actually Learn? Decoding the Curriculum

 

Alright, so it's inexpensive, but is the education quality? You need to get into the curriculum. Is it going to actually make you a good physician? Does it cover all of the topics you need to have covered? Does it seem up to date? It also looks, from browsing through it, like a significant amount of the staff you'll be learning from will have good years of experience.

 

Try to get testimonies from students now or who used to attend school. How do they evaluate the teaching quality? Are teaching staff nurturing? Are instructional resources sufficient?

 

Get Your Hands Dirty: Clinical Experience Is Key

 

Let's get down to facts, you're not going to learn how to be a physician just reading textbooks. You've got to get in the hospitals and learn to practice on real patients. So, what kind of clinical experience does ISU offer?

 

Are the affiliated hospitals well-respected and well-stocked? Will you get to work in different specialties? And will you actually be actively involved with patient care, or will you simply observe physicians?

 

Speaking the Language: Brush Up on Your Russian

 

Face the facts, even though your classes may be in English, you are going to have to learn at least a little bit of Russian in order to survive your life on a daily basis and to connect with patients. Are you willing to make the effort to get proficient in a second language?

 

More Than Just Books: What's Life Actually Like?

 

Lifelong abroad is a grand adventure, and it's worth taking stock of what life will actually be like in Ingushetia.

 

•  What's the culture? Will you have to alter your lifestyle?

•  How much will it cost to live there?

•  Is it safe and welcoming?

 

The Verdict: Do Your Homework!

 

ISU could be just the thing for others. The reduced costs are definitely a big advantage, and getting to experience another culture is truly enriching.

 

But it's not everyone. You have to be truthful with yourself about your capacity to cope with a new culture, your willingness to learn a new language, and your commitment to work.

 

Do your homework, fire away with the tough questions, and make sure ISU is right for you. Your future as a physician hangs in the balance! Good luck!
