I belong to Silchar and pursued my MBBS from NEIGRIHMS. This makes me qualified to talk about both. Here are some details on both these institutions-

NEIGRIHMS:

  1. It is a central government institute with a state-of-the-art infrastructure. The MBBS faculty is well experienced and dedicated, though less in number. 
  2. After completing your UG from this institute, you’ll be well-equipped with knowledge. 
  3. Alumni from NEIGRIHMS go on to other prestigious institutions for their PGs. The hospital has a huge patient load, with cases coming in from all across the North East. So as a UG student, you’ll be at a surplus of cases. 
  4. The climate and people of Shillong are both really good. The college campus is beautiful. It is the cleanest of all medical colleges in India.

SMC:

  1. SMC is an old institute located in Assam. It has a huge alumni network, having been an alma mater to numerous successful medicos. 
  2. But like other state government institutions, you’ll learn mostly from the PGs and your seniors. It has a lot more PG students than NEIGRIHMS where PG courses are at an infant stage. The seniors are friendly. 
  3. The faculty is less in number. The patient load is high, and residents have to work a lot. But it is one of the worst-maintained medical colleges in terms of cleanliness. 

If you are a domicile of Assam, it is better to do your MBBS from SMC. After your graduation, go for rural posting. After all this, you’ll become eligible for state PG quota. NEIGRIHMS has a very high competition for PG seats, and getting in for a UR student is especially difficult. 

Both are equally good colleges, and you should choose between them based on your own preferences.
