Can I do MBBS and BA from IGNOU at the same time ?
Yes, UGC has given its approval regarding pursuing two courses at the same time, only provided that one cannot pursue both these courses in regular mode. This basically means that for both courses to be considered valid,, one course has to be in regular mode and the other course must be in distance mode from Open University.
UGC rules are applicable in the case of IGNOU also. Earlier before UGC made such changes, IGNOU did not allow two regular courses simultaneously through the same University. But in accordance with recent regulations, you can do two regular as well as two distance courses at the same time.

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.
Which is better for MBBS - Dr. DY Patil Medical College Pune, SRMC (SRU) Chennai or KS Hegde (affiliated to NITTE University) Mangalore?
If the fees are not your major consideration, then according to the patient load, SRMC and DY Patil are much better than KS Hegde. Though the curriculum and training provided to the students are a lot better in KS Hegde.
The one thing that should matter most is graduating successfully with an MBBS degree. Patient load is not the primary concern until post graduation.
KS Hegde also gives a lot of importance to extracurricular activities, sports and cultural events. This helps in the students holistic development as well. Therefore, analyzing everything, it is suggested that KS Hegde will be better to pursue an MBBS degree.
How is life and experience at AIIMS Jodhpur for MBBS?
One of my friends studied at AIIMS Jodhpur. According to her it has been a really good journey from her 1st year to the internship.
- The campus was very welcoming.
- They had centralised AC buildings and clean interiors.
- You get a room all to yourself unlike other college hostels.
- There are strict rules against ragging. The seniors here are genuinely helpful and will guide you properly during your initial days of college.
- First few months you will have to follow strict hostel rules which eventually get lenient.
- The downside here is that there is nothing to do outside the campus. It is usually mundane but you can take weekend trips or hike to the nearby places.
- You will also get to witness the development of the campus alongside.
- The clinical exposure here is wonderful witnessing many cases - typical and atypical.
- The place transforms when a college fest is held. They make the campus more beautifully decorated.
- Since the sports facilities are excellent most of the students are involved with it.
- Many clubs have also been initiated.
Overall, MBBS here is really great. The city of Jodhpur might not be comparable to New Delhi but it has an essence of its own which is quite unique.
Do you need to pass separately on both papers of the first MBBS RGUHS?
There is no need to pass separately on both the papers of a subject in the first year of MBBS RGUHS. You just need to make sure to score above 50% of the total that includes your internal examinations, both the papers and the theory viva. According to the RS3 regulations and the marks distribution, it is not mandatory.
Internals carry 40 marks, total marks for both papers combined is 200 marks and the viva has 40 marks. So, the total becomes 280, out of which it is necessary for you to score above 140 to pass the subject. This holds true for the subjects- anatomy and physiology. As for biochemistry, only half of it will be applied to the subject.
Is it possible to get a seat for PG at AIIMS Delhi in radiology for a doctor who got an MBBS degree from PGIMS Rohtak or another state medical college?
Yes it is possible. There are a lot of mediocre students who evolve with time and end up cracking IIT or AIIMS.
- AIIMS conducts an entrance exam every 6 months for entry into its MD, MS courses.
- You can regularly visit the exam portal of AIIMS to check for all the details regarding exam pattern, eligibility, seat distribution, registration for the exam, and other details.
- They also release exam notifications in newspapers.
- AIIMS generally reserves 50% of its PG seats for its internal candidates (those who have pursued their MBBS from AIIMS), which doesn't mean external candidates don't stand a chance.
Since MD radiology at AIIMS, New Delhi is your target, you will require a rank in top 3-5 to secure a place in MD radiology. It might be the toughest exam but it is not impossible. Try dedicating more time preparing for this, which might give you positive results.

Is it worth taking admission for an MBBS at AIIMS Rishikesh or Raipur or Patna if I am getting good colleges from the state counselling like RML Lucknow or GSVM Kanpur?
AIIMS Rishikesh, Raipur or Patna all are well reputed institutes and should not be underestimated. They are institutes of national importance and autonomous institutes of central government.
