Breaking the myth around studying abroad during the times of Covid-19

Globalization is changing the way the world functions and with the current advancement, employers are more interested in looking for workers with cutting-edge technical skills. Studying abroad can be a transformational journey for many students helping them to understand different ways of life and acquire global skills which would further aggravate their opportunities to find job globally.

Inspite of being in the middle of a pandemic which has affected the global education system, report shows that overseas education is the main draw for Indians when it comes to using the RBI’s Liberalised Remittance Scheme(LRS). This year in April, remittances toward studies abroad jumped to $353 million from April 2020 when Indians sent only $79 million for the same reason. This shows that the fear and myth around Covid which should have made students to stay in India for their education has worked either way and resulted in an increase in overseas education. Students want to go abroad to finish their education with the idea to explore more with their course and acquire skills that would give an edge to their career.

We at MedStudies, try to facilitate and help students with medical dream by providing them with proper career guidance to achieve their foreign career dream. We encourage study abroad as we believe that studying abroad can enhance the students’ cognitive abilities and open new paths for the students to follow their passion. Pursuing a career abroad will not only deepen the subject knowledge but also broaden the understanding of other different cultures. Students who study abroad, with the varied exposure and experiences they are subjected to, they learn to have a wider perspective about their course and culture. The holistic growth of a student throughout their stay during their curriculam helps them to expand their career and personal horizons.
