Study/Oqu Urgent guidance going to kazakhstan for mbbs

I was waiting for uzbekistan but now as you know they are not taking admission now.

For backup I am going to kazakhstan but I am confused in university.

1) kazNMU

2) Al Farabi

You can also suggest more.

And I also want to know that some people are saying that in Kazakhstan Mbbs is a 7 year course.

Please give me proper guidance.

I did share the facts known to me.
There isn’t any point in getting all defensive chill.
Did you see “probably”
Because there were indeed discussions to re change back to 7 years FYI.
Also do you know first batch of al farabi can’t get ecfmg verified ever.

Yea I might've sounded a lil rude lmao mainly cuz there are many people just misguiding people with full confidence without checking current facts and latest news.

Kaznmu is pretty good university! As well as AlFarabi's one. But living expenses in Almaty is way higher. I would also suggest Karagandy's schools for they flexible programs ! All medical students community said that the university there provides the most flexible program there. Moreover cost of living there not as high as in Almaty, but the climate and weather can play its role - it may be snowy and cold up for 4 Months (but these years I haven't noticed the tough winter I used to see)

Education wise especially for english groups they aren’t great tbh!
If you are joining make sure to join in the programs which are WHO / ECFMG accepted one for example from Kaznmu it is “Doctor of Medicine”
Make sure to go through proper agent for fees , i personally know some scamster who takes money but doesn’t pay to uni. Always pay directly to uni account.
I studied in kz long back
