Seth Gordhandas Sunderdas Medical College

This college is right on Acharya Donde Marg in the Parel area of Mumbai. It’s a place that’s always buzzing with some kind of activity. We have students constantly running between their lectures and the big hospital nearby. The building has a lot of history, and you can really see it in the old walls and the way the corridors are built. It’s a tough place to be if you aren't ready to work very hard. We see students studying in every possible corner, even in the hallways when the library is too full. It’s not a place for luxury or comfort. Everything is about learning medicine and getting the daily tasks done. The faculty are usually very busy, and the administrative staff have their hands full with all the paperwork and records. Parel is a crowded part of the city, and the college feels like its own little world once you step inside. We have various departments spread out across the campus. It can be a bit confusing for someone visiting for the first time. There’s no big marketing here because people already know about the college and what happens here. It’s more about the long tradition of being here on Acharya Donde Marg. We just keep the routine going, year after year. New students come in every session, and the old ones graduate and move on to become doctors. It’s a busy, practical environment that doesn’t really stop for much. That's just the daily life here at the college.
