Will it be a right decision to leave AIIMS Patna for AIIMS Rishikesh or Raipur considering the current scenario?
Given the current situation, leaving AIIMS Patna for AIIMS Rishikesh or Raipur is not a smart decision. The following are the reasons:
1. Among all AIIMS, AIIMS Patna has the highest patient input (second only to AIIMS Delhi), and in medical studies, patients are your best teacher.
2. The AIIMS Patna PG entrance result is excellent, with several single-digit rankers in various entrance exams.
3. Dams (coaching for PG) has a center in Patna, so you can easily prepare for PG from here.
4. The campus is the largest of all the AIIMS, with numerous fields for casual play and hanging out.
5. A 1000-bed ward, various OTs, and a large library are just a few of the amenities available.
You should choose the AIIMS closest to your home because with the minimal vacations provided to students, you will have frequent cravings to visit home yet keeping in mind that you cannot take much leave.

Should I opt for AIIMS Raipur over AIIMS Jodhpur if I am from Maharashtra as Jodhpur is further away? I am generally looking for good college and hostel facilities and infrastructure.
Many students are confused while choosing their AIIMS College. AIIMS Raipur is usually ranked low in the list of 2012 implemented AIIMS.So firstI will address the misconceptions that l led to this conclusion:
-
People think that the hostel is far from the campus. When in reality you will be staying in the residential complex. You can come to the campus easily via a bus. Also you will be free from the fear of seniors. Also after a year you will be given single rooms at the hostel itself.
-
To have a look at its infrastructure, people refer to its old pictures which are misleading. The college and hostel are in fact massive and house thousands of students.
-
There is a rumour that AIIMS Raipur campus is incomplete. In reality, a dental college is being constructed.
-
People assume that since it’s located in Raipur, the crowd is also below average.
The only flaw is that the city needs development. All AIIMSs get equal funding and faculty distributed evenly. Yet AIIMS Raipur is underrated.
Why do you think most of the students choose AIIMS Raipur over AIIMS Patna?
The reason why students prefer AIIMS Raipur to AIIMS Patna is because of its modern day facilities and high quality education.
-
The hostel services are exceptionally good. The rooms are hygienic and well furnished.
-
It is located barely 15–20 minutes from the heart of the city of Raipur, which has enough places to hang out.
Raipur city is now among the fast developing cities of India and you won’t regret joining this college.

I have a choice between AIIMS Raipur and Seth GSMC Mumbai for MBBS which one would be better considering the future post-graduation?
It is widely held that the Mumbai work structure is extremely beneficial and makes you more confident and open.
GSMC has a bond, so you must work for a year after graduation, whereas AIIMS does not have a bond. As one of the most prominent leading institutes in Maharashtra, GSMC has excellent technical infrastructure. It has a higher patient flow, which is very important. It also has more advanced clinical departments. The faculty is an incredible and enthusiastic supporter. It is affiliated with other BMC colleges, giving you more opportunities, and it is also affiliated with prestigious institutions such as Tata Memorial and Wadia Hospital.
AIIMS Raipur is a good choice because of the AIIMS brand, infrastructure, and smaller batch size, but GSMC is still suggested.
What if I am rejected at the medical fitness test at AIIMS Raipur during admissions for an MBBS?
Regular medical tests are performed during admissions, ranging from routine blood and screening tests to organ-specific tests such as eye, ear, and mental illness.
In the event of any red flags such as severe mental illness, immunodeficiency, progressive vision loss, and other issues that could jeopardize your training or patients' safety/treatment, a medical board will be formed for you, comprised of senior faculty from various departments, and an external expert on that subject may be called upon if necessary.The board will decide whether or not you can enroll in the course. The calls for MBBS are not as restrictive as those for PG. For example, if you are discovered to have motor ticks or fine tremors, the board may not permit you to pursue surgical branches.
