4 hours per day at least when exams are not near. This is in addition to class room teachings/ wards teaching.
Final year: More than this.

It depends on your study techniques. If you can recall from the lectures, the time will be lesser. If you depend on learning only by reading it will take more time. But consistency and sincerity reduces time requirement. At least have a glance on what you have taken note all the day. Make lesson plan for exam. Practice common questions more. Try to correlate more with living human to book.
Give more time on practical and clinical aspect. It will give more time to do extra-curricular activities.

Just revise what you have been taught that day itself.

I think how concentrationally you are studying and your study plan and study hours doesn’t matter only your concentration and focus matter

The hours genuinely don’t matter , what matters is how much and how efficiently you can cover a topic in the time you have . Its a basic math with a smart study pattern , a few focused hours of study is as effective as a 13 hr long study session . It depends on what works for a person .

Do smart work instead of hard work
It usually depends on how fast and how proficiently you can grasp the topics of particular subject
But ideally you should do 2-3 hours of study in daily basis
Plus do it in small small chunks as if you keep studying for long hours in one strech it’s highly possible that you will get exhausted
MBBS is not like any competitive exams
And you can stay in this competitive zone for more than a year or two so it’s better to study in small chunks .!

In MBBS, constant and steady wins the race.
3-4 hours daily is needed but it totally depends from person to person and different study plans.
Some people take 15 mins break with 45 mins study and some people take 30 mins break with 2 hours study.
It keeps on changing according to the circumstances. 
I think it should be more of target based rather than time based. Make your daily and weekly goal and try to achieve it.

I guess I am fit to answer this question. Right now I’m in my third year and have scored distinction in 5 out of 6 mbbs subjects
What i think is,
-
hours of study really doesn’t matter, what matters is how well you complete the topic
-
4 hours per day is good. Always remember mbbs is not a race, it’s a marathon. If you run very fast in the beginning you’ll be tired by the end. So, just keep it slow and maintain your pace
-
study when you want and chill when you don’t
Dont stress out and force yourself to study always. Just chill and go with the flow
In exam time, the duration will increase to 6-7 hours a day, but it’s just for a week
Overall I think 4h per day and 7-8 h during exam time is sufficient enough to get very good scores in mbbs
Even for mediocre students, if they study for 7-8 hours 20-25 days before their exam, they will eventually pass the exams
As my teachers always use to say, “when you have entered mbbs, failing is very difficult.”
All the besttt

Hours doesn’t matter.Some will grasp the concept in one read itself some want to read more than once.
Getting topic covered a day is good and solve the mcqs.
On weekend revise the whole topic that studied in a week. Maximum try to study through standard textbooks, it’ll be easier for further entrance exams, quiz competition, etc. Learning through videos is helpful, as visual impact hots more.
During last days of exams, the quick revision notes will be helpful, so writing notes such as flowchart, diagram,… will be good enough in my opinion.

The quality of study matters more than just the hours spent studying. Also, the consistency in study schedule is more effective than cramming once a week.
Thus, 4 hours of focused study with smart planning is better than 8 hours of just mindlessly scrolling through notes.
