Methodology & source context

Source: The Nachiket Bhatia Show, Resident-Rated Department Toxicity Index. The report records 2,912 responses, with 2,395 used in department scores, across 516 colleges and 146 hospitals / DNB sites. Data through 6 October 2026.

Toxicity score = 100 − (weighted mean × 10). Each domain is rated out of 10, with 10 indicating a more positive experience. The report uses these weights:

Environment
15%
Hands-on experience
15%
Academics
12%
Faculty
12%
Senior-resident experience
12%
Work-life balance
12%
Mental health
12%
Stipend paid on time
5%
Safety
5%

Scores and verdicts are reproduced as supplied. Scores were calculated from unrounded ratings; displayed domain averages are rounded. The recommendation percentage reflects residents’ answers, not an admission likelihood or RankGood endorsement. Response counts per department are not provided.

The source says institution-name variants were reconciled and near-identical repeat submissions within an hour counted once. RankGood has not independently verified those findings or merged additional institutions. Speciality filters group only the explicit MD/MS, DNB and Diploma suffixes; each department’s original label stays visible.
