Also, one listing mentions GTVMMC’s academic fee for MBBS is ~  61,000 (INR). 

Because the college is under Tamil Nadu's medical education ecosystem, the fee structure is regulated by state authorities / Dr. MGR University norms.

  • For MBBS, candidates must qualify NEET-UG and then undergo Tamil Nadu state medical counselling (state quota) and possibly All India Quota (AIQ) processes. 

  • For MD / MS / PG courses, admissions are via NEET-PG and state / central counselling.

  • For MBBS: 10+2 / HSC (or equivalent) with Physics, Chemistry, Biology / Biotechnology & English.

  • Minimum marks in the required subjects as per Tamil Nadu / NMC norms (general / reserved categories).

Because cutoffs fluctuate yearly based on competition, seat availability, exam difficulty, and category, aspirants for 2025 should check the official Tamil Nadu medical counselling authority or Dr. MGR University’s published cutoff lists when released.


Placements & Career Outcomes

  • As an established government medical college, GTVMMC has a foundation for clinical exposure, hospital affiliation, and faculty support, which helps graduates in clinical practice, PG admissions, and hospital recruitment.

  • However, I could not find reliable public data on average salary packages, placement statistics, or alumni employment figures specifically for GTVMMC in the sources I reviewed.

  • In medical education, key “placement” metrics often include:
     • How many graduates secure PG seats (MD / MS)
     • Whether graduates find hospital / clinical roles
     • Research / academic roles or public health posts
     • Bond / service obligations in state health systems

Since GTVMMC has been operating for over a decade, more data may exist via its alumni, departmental reports, or institutional disclosures.


Ranking & Reputation

  • GTVMMC is ranked #251 out of ~660 medical colleges in India in the medical stream, and #31 in Tamil Nadu for its medical program. 

  • Within Tamil Nadu, it is considered among the government medical colleges offering stable training, infrastructure, and affiliation.

  • Its reputation benefits from being government, having steady infrastructure, and being affiliated with a recognized medical university (Dr. MGR).

Over time, its standing may improve based on research output, alumni success, quality of faculty, specialty availability, and clinical workload.
