Which college is better, GMC Patiala or CMC Ludhiana?

Both GMC Patiala and CMC Ludhiana are well-respected colleges in India. Both offer excellent education and resources for students. 

Let's consider the following aspects:

• Fees : GMC Patiala is a government college so it charges much lesser fees around INR 1.74 Lakhs (First Year) in contrast to CMC Ludhiana which charges around INR 6.6 Lakhs for the first year.
• Academics : The academic environment is more or less the same. CMC Ludhiana has a smaller batch size so the student-to-teacher ratio is pretty good ensuring personal attention to each.
• Clinical exposure: CMC Ludhiana because is a multispeciality hospital and has a better patient load and diversity in cases. Sometimes even government colleges refer cases to this hospital.
• Hostels : CMC is a private college so its hostel facilities and overall infrastructure are definitely better than GMC Patiala. CMC Ludhiana students get a single room from their first year. 

However, the only drawback is that CMC Ludhiana is located amidst the hustle and bustle such that one has to cross the main road to reach the hospital from the hostel.
