About Bishkek in Kyrgyzstan

International School of Medicine location is Bishkek, capital of Kyrgyzstan, formerly known as Frunze.

Like rest of the country, Bishkek has extremes of climate that can be a major problem for us Indians. It is really improbable that an Indian will be able to easily cope with the extreme winters of Bishkek.
Bishkek’s population consists of European citizens like the Ukrainians, and the Germans. Kyrgyz, though being the official language, is vanishing among the younger generations as the most preferred language these days is Russian.

City has space for malls, banks, markets and store in its urban setting. Cabs are found in excess, also public transports like public vans, buses, trolley buses, train stations connecting Bishkek to Moscow and Manas International Airport can be found around the corners of the city. The amount of air pollutants content was 14k tons (as of 2010 data) indicating higher concentrations of pollutants.

International School Of Medicine, Kyrgyzstan

Established in 2003, International School of Medicine is just two decades old university and it not only falls short in terms of experience but also in terms of infrastructure. As the establishment year reflects, this medical university is fairly new and being a private university taking admission is just not logical yet. 

Also, International School of Medicine is not very good when you consider the prospects of clinical exposure. The living conditions for the students are average and the International School of Medicine official website claims to provide accommodation to foreign and local students throughout study period. 

The popularity of this University is a reality but we tend to believe that it roots from the low International School of Medicine Fees. A word of caution - reason behind this low fee might well mean lack of enough services that may affect the quality of your learning like inadequate clinical exposure. 

Of course, the cost of living here in Kyrgyzstan is comparatively low than that of India and hence, ones with the budget of nearly 20 Lakh can opt for MBBS in International School of Medicine.

International School of Medicine has been placed 11532nd among 40,000 odd universities around the globe and this speaks a lot about the quality of education it has to offer.  While the International School of Medicine Country Ranking in Kyrgyzstan is as high as the 25th, it reflects the standards of education in the entire country.

The university has a ‘C’ grade, another fact defining the poor quality of education provided at the university. Any student with a budget of 31.28 Lacs can think of pursuing medical program at International School of Medicine. 

Definitely a point to take home - As compared to the universities in Ukraine, Russia, etc., Kyrgyzstani universities don’t have much to provide in terms of quality education and proper infrastructure. 

Facts About Studying In International School Of Medicine 

The International School of Medicine may have short term benefits like low tuition fees but:

1. The universities in Kyrgyzstan have poor quality of education, low quality infrastructure, along with less clinical exposure.
2. In Bishkek, the people either speak Kyrgyz or more commonly Russian. English has not gained the kind of acceptance here that will make day to day life easy for those who, like the students from India, can’t speak the two former languages. 
3. Cost of living at Kyrgyzstan may be comparatively lower than that of India even but that would definitely mean poorer living conditions too. Spending a period of more than 5 years can be uncomfortable or downright detrimental.
