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.

  • The faculty pool is equally qualified and diverse, comprising authors of international books, leaders in research in their fields, advisors to international committees, etc
  • The overall mindset of the institute is towards striving for excellence. You are left with no option but to do your extreme best and succeed.
  • The patient inflow is also quite diverse at AIIMS and apart from textbook cases, you come across rare diseases too.

  • The approachable and experienced faculty combined with good funding aid in research opportunities right from the 1st year
  • Many AIIMS alumni work at top international universities. This is beneficial for research electives and USMLE prospects.
  • AIIMS easily fulfills the required student-faculty ratio guidelines.

AIIMS Rishikesh

AIIMS Delhi, Bhopal, Bhubaneswar, and Jodhpur are considered the top 4 AIIMS. All these 2012-established AIIMS are somewhat similar in terms of infrastructure and academics. The lab facilities are more or less accustomed. These institutes have minor differences like sports and recreational activities which in reality don’t matter considering the fact that you are a medical student and everything apart from studies is secondary.

I would like to conclude by saying that the most important factor to consider while choosing an AIIMS should be the distance from your home or hometown.

How much prize money can I get if I got AIR 1 in the NEET, AIIMS, and JIPMER?

D
Divya Posted On : July 22nd, 2024
MBBS student at AIIMS New Delhi

In the present scenario, admissions to AIIMS and JIPMER Pondicherry are conducted through NEET UG. Earlier, the institutions conducted their own entrance exams to admit students into their MBBS program. 

Now coming to your question, the authorities won’t reward you with any money for securing AIR 1 in the entrance exam. However, your name will be submitted to the Limca Book of records, and you’ll receive prize money from there. 

Another way is that unfortunately, plenty of coaching institutes approach NEET toppers to use their names in billboards and coaching materials’ back covers. These institutes will pay you to pretend that you studied for your NEET exam from them. It is possible that book brands will pay you for positive feedback. 

These are the multiple ways that toppers gain popularity and money after NEET results. However, make sure to keep your head down and work even harder once you achieve this milestone. Even though you won't receive any cash prize from the authorities, you’ll 

study at AIIMS New Delhi, or any other topmost medical college in India for a minimal fee.
