AIIMS is rightfully called the Harvard of the East owing to its excellence in the field of Medical education. AIIMS has a lot to offer and not every AIIMS student makes the most out of the plethora of opportunities offered. It depends on the individual and his goals.
Here are a few aspects that make AIIMS stand out amongst other medical institutes.
With so much to offer, AIIMS is definitely worth it. Remember that it’s the hard work that counts more than anything. Many top colleges give birth to average doctors and vice versa.

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.
AIIMS Delhi is considered one of the best medical institutes in India with standards equal to Harvard University. It’s the dream college of millions of medical aspirants and rightly serves the first position in the medical family.
AIIMS Delhi is surely the best medical institute one can ask for.

While the majority of medical aspirants would prefer AIIMS over AFMC, my sister was a different breed and was adamant about AFMC. Here are a few pros she shared of AFMC that made her choose it over AIIMS.
These are some points that make AFMC unique in contrast to AIIMS.
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.
Following are the books followed by students at the mentioned medical institutions:
Subjects | AIIMS Delhi | JIPMER |
Anatomy | BD Chaurasia’s Human Anatomy | Gray’s Anatomy for Students |
Physiology | Understanding Medical Physiology by R. Bijlani | GK Pal’s Comprehensive Textbook of Medical Physiology |
Biochemistry |

Apart from these, the HOD of the respective departments/subjects will also suggest to you some reference books. You should not limit yourself to only these textbooks.
