What our Students Say

After completing her higher secondary education at Krishnamurty World School in Cuttack, Sababi Shaik always dreamed of becoming a doctor. However, finding an affordable and quality MBBS program abroad seemed overwhelming at first. With the right guidance, family support, and a lot of courage, she made the decision to step beyond familiar boundaries and pursue her dream at Samarkand State Medical University in Uzbekistan.

The initial months of adjustment were not without challenges. Moving to a completely new country, adapting to a different culture, a new language, and a rigorous academic system required enormous resilience. But Sababi embraced every aspect of the experience — building friendships with fellow students from across the world, learning to live independently, and discovering strengths she did not know she had.

Today, she is successfully progressing through her second year of MBBS. The university offers excellent academic facilities, highly experienced faculty, and hands-on clinical exposure that have helped her grow both professionally and personally. Looking back, she considers choosing to study abroad one of the most defining decisions of her life.

Studying abroad has made me more confident and independent. Looking back, choosing Samarkand State Medical University was one of the best decisions for my future.

Growing up in Sambalpur, Shubham Jena had one clear, unwavering goal — to wear the doctor’s white coat one day. After completing his schooling at Madnawati Public School, he began seriously evaluating MBBS options both in India and abroad. He wanted a program that combined academic quality with global recognition, without placing an excessive financial burden on his family.

His search led him to Samarkand State Medical University in Uzbekistan — a NMC-recognised institution with a strong medical curriculum, modern facilities, and a welcoming environment for international students. The admission process was transparent and professional, and he felt guided at every step rather than left to navigate it alone.

Now in his second year of MBBS, Shubham is gaining valuable clinical knowledge, interacting with students from different countries, and steadily building the academic and practical foundation for his future medical career. The experience has shaped not just his understanding of medicine but also his character — teaching him discipline, adaptability, and the true value of perseverance.

Studying medicine abroad has taught me much more than academics. It has taught me responsibility, independence, and the value of perseverance.

For Ghanashyam Jyotish, becoming a doctor was more than a career choice — it was a lifelong aspiration that had been nurtured since childhood. After completing his schooling at Pragati Science Higher Secondary School in Bhawanipatna, he began exploring MBBS options with determination, knowing that the path forward required both academic excellence and the courage to step into the unknown.

After careful evaluation, he selected Samarkand State Medical University in Uzbekistan — a decision that has since proven to be the right one. The university’s structured curriculum, qualified faculty, and practical-oriented learning environment gave him the foundation he needed. Life in Uzbekistan also exposed him to a different way of thinking, a multicultural student community, and a level of self-reliance he had not experienced before.

Now proudly in his third year of MBBS, Ghanashyam has grown both academically and as a person. He manages his studies with greater confidence, approaches clinical concepts with deeper understanding, and looks forward to every new challenge his medical education brings. His journey stands as proof that a strong dream, paired with the right opportunity, truly has no limits.

Every year of this journey has strengthened my confidence. I am proud to be pursuing my dream in an international environment.

Mohammed Rehan grew up in Cuttack with a deep belief that dedication and consistent effort are the only true pathways to success. After completing his schooling at Freedom International School, he began his search for a medical university that would offer internationally recognised education, strong academic standards, and a platform to develop as a future healthcare professional.

He chose Tashkent State Medical University in Uzbekistan — a well-established institution with decades of experience in producing skilled medical graduates. Moving to a different country for the first time was a significant milestone, but Rehan approached the transition with maturity and openness. He quickly adapted to the campus environment, bonded with classmates from across India and beyond, and embraced the structured approach to medical learning.

Currently in his second year of MBBS, Rehan speaks confidently about how the experience has sharpened his focus and revealed strengths he was previously unaware of. The challenges of studying abroad — managing life independently, maintaining academic performance in a demanding programme, and staying motivated far from home — have only deepened his commitment to his goals.

Moving to another country was a big step, but it helped me discover my strengths and become more focused on my goals.

Hailing from Bhawanipatna, Amlanjyoti Mohapatra always carried a deep passion for medicine and an equally strong desire to receive a globally recognised education. After completing his schooling at DAV Vedanta International School in Lanjigarh, Kalahandi, he made the bold decision to pursue MBBS at Tver State Medical University in Russia — one of the well-established medical institutions in the country.

The journey to Russia was both an academic and personal transformation. Adapting to the demanding curriculum, the Russian winter, and life far from home required resilience and a growth mindset. Yet Amlanjyoti embraced every dimension of the experience — the clinical exposure, the diverse student community, the rigorous academic environment — all of which pushed him to become more capable and self-assured.

Now in his third year, he reflects on the journey with pride. He has developed a deeper understanding of human medicine, a stronger clinical foundation, and the kind of mental resilience that only comes from navigating challenges in an unfamiliar environment. His story is one of ambition meeting the right opportunity — and making the most of it.

Studying in Russia has expanded my horizons and given me confidence to face challenges with determination.

For Abhijit Biswal, the dream of wearing a doctor’s coat began long before he stepped into a university. Growing up in Kakatpur and completing his education at Saraswati Vidya Mandir Higher Secondary School, he always believed that medicine was not just a profession but a calling. When MBBS seats in India proved difficult to secure, he chose a different path — one that would take him to Samarkand State Medical University in Uzbekistan.

The transition was not without its difficulties. Leaving behind family, friends, and familiar surroundings to build a new life in a foreign country required immense courage. But Abhijit approached the challenge with determination. He adapted to the international academic environment, developed meaningful friendships with peers from different backgrounds, and gradually grew into the confident, disciplined student he is today.

As a third-year MBBS student, Abhijit has gained far more than just medical knowledge. Living independently abroad has taught him time management, emotional resilience, and a global perspective that will serve him well throughout his career. He hopes his story encourages other students from small towns to believe that the right guidance and the right opportunity can make any dream achievable.

The journey has not always been easy, but every challenge has made me stronger and more determined to succeed.

Pianshi Nisha always believed that a dream becomes achievable when it is supported by genuine dedication and the right opportunities. After completing her schooling at St. Mary’s Higher Secondary School in Jharsuguda, she made the life-changing decision to pursue MBBS at Tver State Medical University in Russia — a university known for its strong medical programme and internationally recognised qualifications.

The first year was full of adjustments — new language sounds, new teaching methods, new weather, and the profound experience of navigating student life in a foreign country entirely on her own. But Pianshi embraced every part of it. She invested in her studies, built connections with fellow students from across the world, and found a rhythm that helped her thrive academically and personally.

Now in her fourth year, she has accumulated a wealth of medical knowledge, practical clinical experience, and life lessons that will stay with her forever. She is more confident, more independent, and more equipped to face the demands of a medical career than she ever imagined she could be. Her journey is a testament to the power of believing in oneself and stepping forward even when the path ahead is uncertain.

Studying abroad transformed me into a more confident and independent individual. I am grateful for every step of this journey.

From the town of Panikoili in Jajpur to the classrooms of Tashkent State Medical University in Uzbekistan — Shubhashree Sahoo’s journey is one that reflects both courage and quiet determination. After completing her schooling at Gurukul Public School in Haridaspur, Jajpur, she began her search for a quality MBBS programme that was both academically credible and financially accessible for her family.

Choosing to study abroad was a decision that required conviction. She had to prepare herself not only academically but also emotionally for the experience of living far from home in a completely new environment. The transition came with its share of uncertainties, but Shubhashree approached every challenge with composure and focus. The support she received during the admission process gave her the confidence to move forward without hesitation.

Now pursuing her third year of MBBS, she is progressing steadily and with growing enthusiasm. The academic rigour, the clinical training, and the international environment have all contributed to shaping her into a more capable and self-assured learner. She hopes her story inspires other students — especially young women from smaller towns — to believe in their potential and embrace the opportunities that global education can offer.

This journey has taught me to believe in myself and embrace opportunities that can shape a brighter future.

Ankita Ojha’s journey into medicine began with a dream that she refused to let go of, no matter how challenging the path became. After completing her schooling at St. Arnold’s School in Jhartarang, Kuarmunda, she explored her options carefully before deciding to pursue MBBS at Tver State Medical University in Russia — a decision that has shaped every aspect of her life since.

The early years were marked by adaptation — getting used to a new academic system, managing life independently in a foreign country, and building the mental discipline that a demanding medical degree requires. Ankita rose to every challenge. She developed close friendships with classmates from across the globe, engaged deeply with her coursework, and consistently pushed herself to grow beyond her comfort zone.

Now in her fourth year, she looks back on her journey with a deep sense of pride and gratitude. The experiences she has gathered — from lecture halls and clinical rotations to the everyday life of an international student — have built in her a resilience and a breadth of perspective that she believes will define the kind of doctor she becomes. Four years of learning, growth, and memories have prepared her well for what lies ahead.

Every year has brought new challenges and new achievements. I am proud of how far this journey has taken me.

Coming from Parlakhamundi, Purushottam always held a deep desire to build a meaningful career in medicine. After completing his schooling at The Mother’s International Higher Secondary School, he channelled that ambition into a focused pursuit — finding the right MBBS programme that would give him both a quality education and a global perspective. His choice of Tver State Medical University in Russia proved to be exactly that.

The journey from a small town in Odisha to the corridors of one of Russia’s medical universities was not without its adjustments. But Purushottam approached the experience with openness and a genuine eagerness to learn. He immersed himself in the academic environment, adapted to the rigours of the MBBS curriculum, and developed a sense of responsibility and purpose that continues to grow with each passing year.

Currently in his third year, he speaks about his journey with genuine gratitude. The international exposure, the diversity of his peers, and the quality of clinical training have all contributed to making him a more rounded and determined future doctor. He believes that studying abroad has not only equipped him with medical knowledge but has also fundamentally changed how he sees himself and the world around him.

Studying abroad has been a life-changing experience. It has prepared me not only to become a doctor but also to become a better version of myself.
