Recommendation
Government Medical College, Vikarabad is a very good option among Telangana’s newer government medical colleges. I would place it slightly ahead of Suryapet and Nalgonda because of its improving infrastructure and hospital development.
If you receive a government MBBS seat at GMC Vikarabad, I would recommend choosing it over almost every private medical college in Telangana, unless you have admission to a top government college such as Osmania, Gandhi, Kakatiya, or ESIC Hyderabad. (NMC)
