Are there any droppers studying in JIPMER?

MS
Manjil Sharma Posted On : September 21st, 2023
Studied MBBS from Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research, Pondicherry (2020)

‘Dropper’ seems like an odd term to define someone.

I did have a roommate during my first year of MBBS at JIPMER who took a year drop after her 12th. During this time, she prepared well for her medical entrances. After a year, she cracked the JIPMER exam with an under 10 UR rank. After her college graduation, she went for her MS OBGY at AIIMS Delhi.

With hardwork and dedication, you’ll surely succeed in getting into JIPMER for your medical studies.

What are the questions asked in Stella Maris College Chennai for admission?

AJ
Akriti Jain Posted On : October 14th, 2021
B.Com from Stella Maris College, Chennai (2019)

I have a friend from Stella Maris College Chennai. Here is what she told me about the admission process at the institute. 

Shortlisted candidates from round-1 are called for an interview. In the interview round, you need to bring all the original certificates. The following are the questions that they generally ask. 

  • Tell me about yourself?
  • What is your passion?
  • Why did you choose Stella?

The interviewer is usually a faculty member from a particular department in the college. An interview doesn’t guarantee that you will get admission. But most of the interviewed students get selected until and unless there is a valid rejection point.

Which college should I choose, peripheral AIIMS or KGMU?

SD
Sagar Dikshit Posted On : September 26th, 2023
lives in Lucknow

One of my cousins got selected in both AIIMS Gorakhpur and KGMU. However, he chose KGMU because of the following reasons

  • KGMU is a state college.
  • It is one of the oldest colleges and has a legacy of more than 100 years.
  • It has a huge patient inflow 
  • It’s most famous for its beautiful Infrastructure and lush green campus.
  • It’s the capital of UP so there are many location advantages too. 

However, the only drawback is that you will have to serve the bond for 2 years. 

AIIMS Gorakhpur on the other hand is a newly established institute so it will take time to grow.

Why should I apply for both IIIT Bangalore and IIIT Hyderabad?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : August 2nd, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

IIIT Bangalore and IIIT Hyderabad are top institutions.

IIIT Hyderabad competes with the top IITs. The coding culture over there is top notch and the competitive spirit among peers makes you work very hard. The faculty is hardworking and inspires students to become good professionals. Students are encouraged to create their own successful startups like SETU,Crypsis, Synovel etc. IIIT H intakes students purely on merit basis, there is no provision of reservation during admissions.

Sir P.J. Narayanan, the professor and current Director of IIIT Hyderabad is known for his work in Computer Vision, Computer Graphics, and Parallel Computing on the GPU. You will learn a lot under his guidance.

IIIT Bangalore has a great coding culture and is known for its academics. Its students participate in the ACM-ICPC finals.

Both IIIT Hyderabad and IIIT Bangalore are really good institutions, and you should apply to both so that you get the opportunity to study in either of them.

Is it a wise decision to choose IMS BHU over KGMU?

SD
Sagar Dikshit Posted On : September 26th, 2023
lives in Lucknow

Many people consider IMS BHU better than KGMU due to internal PG. But the truth is internal PG at IMS BHU will only give only a single attempt to get an internal seat at a low rank. Moreover, owing to the rotation system in a particular year, there might be no internal seat for a particular branch for a specific category. If you happen to belong to that particular branch, you will have to be among toppers else you won't be eligible for internal benefit or state quota. KGMU on the other hand, will give you unlimited attempts with a state quota

Also, I feel MBBS is not just about PG, but also about the holistic development of the students. That being said, the IMS tag isn't as valuable as the KGMU tag.

So, I don't think it's wise to choose IMS BHU over KGMU.
