Global medical education expenditure is $100 billion per year. If the demand for goods or service is high, the cost obviously becomes high. Medical education is highly demanded. The ratio of the medical institutions to accepted candidates is 16:1 which obviously raises the level of competition. Considering the demand-supply gap, most medical schools allow limited students for admission. Top quality medical schools look for the brightest candidates for students and candidates. For this, they go for additional investment which may not always be associated with the core of medical education. Naturally, institutions with state-of-the-art facilities, high-end clinical building and other infrastructure layout adds to the cost of medical education. Many a times, fees collected from students are diverted to support the institution’s research initiatives.
