What is unique about AIIMS Delhi campus, life there, about Pulse and fun one can have there?

VM

MBBS from All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi

A very unique aspect of AIIMS is the sense of freedom you will experience here. 

  • Freedom: Opposite genders can always visit each other's hostel and meet at any time. However, boys are prohibited from going to the girl's hostel after 9 pm. You won’t find this in any other AIIMS.
  • PULSE: It is one of the large-scale events organized by a college in India. This one-week fest witnessed around 30,000 people participating on a daily basis.
  • Frequent trips: Another highlight of AIIMS is the frequent trips that are too without teachers. An annual Shimla trip is one of the most anticipated trips that leave students with millions of memories.

It’s important to note that the list is not exhaustive and there are many more unique aspects of AIIMS.

Which college is better for an MCh Neurosurgery: AIIMS Delhi or NIMHANS?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : June 1st, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

Both AIIMS and NIMHANS have been excellent institutes for neurosurgery. Both the institutes have their unique strengths and weaknesses. It’s better to weigh the pros and cons before coming to a final decision.

AIIMS Delhi

  • AIIMS has given birth to elite neurosurgeons and enjoys a great level of credibility and global recognition. 
  • The neurosurgery department has top-notch infrastructure and all the modern facilities you could ask for. 
  • There is a dedicated trauma center, in addition to cadaveric training and research facility, neurosurgical education and training school, and an animal dissection lab.

NIMHANS

  • NIMHANS is a dedicated mental health and neurosciences institute.
  • It has an NBRC - neurobiology research center which provides necessary resources for research and technology advancement.

Both AIIMS Delhi and NIMHANS are equally good in terms of the amount of work, patient management protocol, and infrastructure. The only issue at AIIMS Delhi is the increasing staff as a result of which the surgical work gets divided and residents get less work. NIMHANS on the other hand has a lesser faculty count which does not necessarily mean more work. 

Ultimately, it’s your performance that determines your success and not your institute. Institute just lays down the stepping stones for your future.

SK
Singdhanjan Kar Posted On : May 31st, 2023
MBBS from All India Institute of Medical Sciences,New Delhi (2020)

AlIMS Delhi has hostel facilities for both UG and PG students. These hostels are equipped with basic amenities such as a bed, study table, and wardrobe. The hostels also have a common room, which is equipped with a television and a few indoor games. The hostels are maintained by the institute's hostel administration and are supervised by wardens. 

  • The canteen facilities and hygiene measures are average.
  • PG students face a little problem in getting a hostel in comparison to UG students.
  • Due to the shortage of rooms, girls are usually allotted double occupancy rooms. 
  • Due to the recent construction of a new girls hostel, girls are now being allotted hostels earlier than before. 
  • Usually, the rooms provided are double occupancy. It is a 2BHK flat with a bathroom and kitchen. But the room there is also a double seater.

Can I get a seat at AIIMS Delhi if I start now?

DR
Dikhsha Roy Posted On : May 30th, 2023
MBBS from All India Institute of Medical Sciences (2020)

Honestly, you won’t be able to get a seat at AIIMS if you start preparing now. You required an AIR within 100 in NEET, one of the most difficult exams for UG in India.

However, if you have studied for AIIMS previously and had taken a drop year then there are still chances. Give it your all and start studying passionately. 

In most cases, however; it’s difficult to start from the beginning and get a seat unless you are a genius who gets 4-5 hours of sleep only and employs the best resources. 

I have seen various people get admission with just a preparation of 4 months. Miracles do happen, all you need to do is believe in yourself and start preparing right away without wasting a single minute here.

Which is better AIIMS or JIPMER?

Prerona Datta Posted On : September 21st, 2023

Although both JIPMER and AIIMS are elite medical colleges in India, I believe AIIMS is slightly better than JIPMER. Here are some common differences that can be pointed out

  • JIPMER has a higher intake than AIIMS so the student-teacher ratio is also higher. This further results in a higher student-patient ratio when one patient is examined for a class.
  • AIIMS has a bigger hospital, more patient flow, and better equipment thereby enhancing the overall learning experience. In AIIMS students are left to study on their own and academics aren’t forced upon them while in JIPMER the teachers teach a lot of theory and practice.
  • AIIMS refers most general and simple cases to other hospitals so you won’t be able to see a variety of cases while in JIPMER, you see all types of cases.
  • AIIMS has better research facilities and funding so if you are willing to do research projects, AIIMS is better for you.
  • JIPMER offers extensive internships that teach a lot and provide hands-on experience and clinical practice. AIIMS clinical testing and internships aren’t that good.
  • Both JIPMER and AIIMS have a strong alumni network and reservations for post-graduation courses that give you ample opportunities for courses and jobs after finishing your studies.
  • Delhi being a metropolitan city has better recreational activities while Pondicherry is the best place if you want a peaceful and calm environment.
  • Pulse by AIIMS is the largest intercollegiate medical festival in the country while Spandan by JIPMER is probably the second largest. Pulse definitely has better cultural activities while Spandan definitely has better sporting ones.
  • AIIMS has better post-graduation and super specialty courses.

Overall, both are excellent institutes and if you even have a choice between AIIMS and JIPMER, then go for AIIMS.

The MBBS program offered at AIIMS Delhi is one of the best you can find in the country and is well-regarded by medical students. Here are a few perks of pursuing this course

  • Curriculum: While the MBBS program offered by all medical institutes is somewhat similar, it is the brand value of the AIIMS that influences the quality of courses offered. Rightly called the Harvard of the East, AIIMS Delhi has the best curriculum.
  • Administration: Being an institute of national importance, AIIMS Delhi administration is at complete freedom to make amendments to the curriculum based on recent trends. AIIMS is a government institute and has very low fees and the schedule followed is also very strict.
  • Infrastructure: Approximately, the government of India spends 1. 7 Crore on a single AIIMS Delhi MBBS student. The overall budget of the institute is also very high and the excellent infrastructure is a testament to the same. The Bhim Rao Institute Rotary Cancer Hospital (IRCH) in addition to many centers for different specialties speaks highly of the AIIMS Delhi infrastructure.
  • Research: AIIMS Delhi has around 45 super specialties. The clinical super specialties are in the same campus as its major research facilities thus promoting top-quality translational research, which can be implemented into clinically useful end products, in India.

Should I take AIIMS Rishikesh or SMS Jaipur (I am from Jaipur)?

AM
Abhinav Mishra Posted On : June 6th, 2023
MBBS from All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Rishikesh (2021)

AIIMS Rishikesh is a better option than SMS JAIPUR. Here is why you should choose AIIMS Rishikesh to SMS Jaipur

  • Smaller batch size
  • Low fee 
  • Extremely cooperative professors in preclinical years. 
  • You will also get an AIIMS quota for PG. 
  • As for the patient inflow, it doesn't matter in UG so don’t let that mislead you to believe old colleges are better. 

Here is why you shouldn’t choose SMS Jaipur

  • The professors in preclinical treat you ruthlessly bringing your morale to its lowest
  • The academics are pathetic and you have to resort to self-study
  • The hostel and campus facilities are lacking and old 
  • Fees are higher than central institutes
  • The batch size is huge 

All this brings us to the conclusion that AIIMS Rishikesh is a far better choice than SMS Jaipur.

Can one clear AIIMS Delhi within 1 year of preparation?

FY
Fayaz Yousuf Posted On : July 2nd, 2022
MBBS from All India Institute of Medical Sciences

Yes, it’s possible to clear AIIMS Delhi with only one year of preparation. Usually, students take 2 years to prepare but there are many who have done it in one. If you put in the required effort, it’s possible. 

You should adopt a target-based preparation strategy. Take a chapter and keep on giving tests until you score at least 90% in it. Once done, move on to the next chapter. Make daily, weekly, and monthly preparation plans.
