Great to see the wonderful results of MRCEM part C in Indian centers . MAX and Meenakshi mission had 100 percent results . Aster Medcity and AsterMims also have 100 percent results. Five candidates appeared . All cleared . I believe many other centers are also doing good . What is more important is EM training in India is passing through its phenomenal growth. Certainly it is a  reflection of quality training programmes. In nutshell  "quality will lead to recognition and not always recognition will lead to  quality".
