Editorial Policy: How We Check the Facts on This Site
A family in Kerala may spend ₹20–60 lakh on the decision this site helps with. So every fee, pass rate and rule here has a source you can check yourself, and every page shows the date it was last reviewed.
Who publishes this site
MBBS Russia for Kerala is published by Edumapple Global Education LLP (LLPIN ACD-8134), an admissions consultancy in Kakkanad, Kochi. We are not an independent newspaper: we help students apply, and that is how we earn our living. Because of that, we hold ourselves to two rules. A university's place in our tables depends only on published data, never on any arrangement with the university. And when the data are weak or missing, the page says so instead of filling the gap with a friendly number.
Which sources we use
| What | Source we use | What we do not use |
|---|---|---|
| Tuition fees | The university's own price order or price list for the intake year, usually in the "paid educational services" section of its Russian website | Agent brochures and fee tables copied between sites |
| FMGE results | NBEMS FMGE performance reports, by university and session | Pass rates quoted without a session or a source |
| Eligibility and recognition | NMC Foreign Medical Graduate Licentiate Regulations 2021 and NMC public notices; NEET rules from the NTA | Claims such as "NMC approved university", which the NMC does not issue |
| Kerala fees and seats | Government orders of the Health and Family Welfare Department, CEE Kerala prospectus and seat matrix, NMC seat data | Coaching-centre estimates |
| Attestation and visas | NORKA Roots, the Ministry of External Affairs and the Embassy of Russia in India | Second-hand checklists |
| Exchange rates | Central Bank of Russia official rate on the date shown on the page | Rounded "1 rouble = 1 rupee" conversions |
When a university's website cannot be opened from India, we read it through the Internet Archive and name the snapshot date. When only an agent figure exists, the page labels it as an agent figure.
How a page is written and reviewed
- We collect the semantics for the page: what students and parents in Kerala actually search for, and which questions the top results leave unanswered.
- A draft is written from the sources above. Every number is linked to its source in the page's source note.
- An editor checks each figure against the source document, recalculates every rupee conversion and total, and removes anything we cannot back up.
- The page is published with the date of the check. Fees are rechecked when universities publish new price orders, usually between March and June; FMGE tables after each NBEMS report.
What we will not publish
- Guarantees of admission, of FMGE success or of a job.
- Invented reviews, testimonials or student numbers.
- Photos presented as a university campus when they are not. Real photos are credited to their author and licence; illustrations are captioned "Illustration".
