AIIMS Bhopal students are allotted a single-seater room from the second year i.e. the 3rd semester. In the first year, AIIMS Bhubaneshwar MBBS students are assigned rooms based on their gender. 

Boys are assigned double-seater rooms with an attached washroom, whereas girls are assigned single-seater rooms from the first day.

Why don't AIIMS Bhubaneswar hostels provide single seated rooms yet all the AIIMS do so?

KS
Kalyan Sahu Posted On : December 26th, 2023
Lives in Bhubaneshwar

Only freshers are not allotted single seater rooms at AIIMS Bhubaneswar. The rest of the students are allotted single rooms.

The authorities are somewhat right in allotting shared rooms to first year students. To be away from home for the first time can be very emotionally draining for many students. In such circumstances, having someone around helps them feel connected and happy. Other than that, sharing a room with someone from a different cultural background helps in making them broad-minded and accepting of others’ values. They have someone by their side in a new environment, which is another important benefit of shared rooms. 

Thus, not allotting single seater rooms to freshers is a good decision made by the AIIMS Bhubaneswar authorities.

Is it true that the second generation AIIMS (Bhopal, Bhubaneshwar, Jodhpur, Patna, Raipur, Rishikesh) are suffering from lack of faculty and hightech medical instruments for MBBS UG course?

PA
Puneet Aarya Posted On : June 5th, 2023
MBBS from All India Institute of Medical Sciences

MBBS from any AIIMS is equally good and anyone who claims otherwise has false information or hasn’t been exposed to the facilities of these peripheral AIIMS. 

As for the high-tech medical instruments, UG MBBS does not require such equipment and the course is conducted mostly through clinical exposure and not research work. For this, we need enough cadavers, well-furnished labs, OTS, and well-maintained lecture theaters.

Every AIIMS provides these top-notch facilities and has excellent infrastructure that promotes a healthy academic environment. The quality of the infrastructure is further proved by the pic below

AIIMS

What you see here is a modular OT and a high-tech faculty that is present only in institutes of national importance because of funding from the government.

AIIMS faculty recruitment is unique and thus it’s not easy to take in just anyone as a teacher here. Moreover, the faculty shortage does not affect the quality of education. 

The results of all these AIIMS and the successful doctors they have produce are a testament to their worth and credibility that is almost the same as AIIMS Delhi.

What should I choose, AIIMS Jodhpur or AIIMS Bhubaneshwar?

AP
Aishwarya Pathak Posted On : June 10th, 2023
Lives in Jodhpur

Both the AIIMS Jodhpur and Bhubaneswar are reputed medical colleges with similar curricula and facilities. Usually, students consider the proximity to home while making this decision. That being said, most North Indians prefer Jodhpur while South Indians prefer Bhubaneswar. 

The other factor people consider is the nature of college life offered by these. Jodhpur is a tourist heritage city with a very hot climate whereas Bhubaneswar is a capital metro with a pleasant climate. Had I been in your place, I would have always chosen AIIMS Bhubaneswar over AIIMS Jodhpur. Here’s why

  • Trauma center: The trauma center offers practical experience and also trains the students to handle their emotions as a part of this challenging field.
  •  Mother And Child Block: A new Mother and Child block is on the way to promote Gynae-Paedia learning.
  • City life: Bhubaneswar has a student-friendly life with many top educational institutes. Top colleges like XIMB, IIT, IIIT, NISER, and labs like ICMR, and CSIR provide a student-friendly atmosphere. These institutes contact sports events, fests, and science and you can attend these events and make great memories and get exposure. 

I don’t mean to demean AIIMS Jodhpur especially when it has the best sports facilities among all AIIMS. Ultimately it’s your decision to make!

Is it true that students get single room in AIIMS Bhubaneswar from 3rd years onwards?

HD
Hrishita Das, Posted On : June 8th, 2023
MBBS from AIIMS, Bhubaneshwar (2021)

No, AIIMS Bhubaneswar students get single rooms from the 2nd year and not the 3rd year. The first-year students are given a separate area so as to minimize ragging. 

In the first year, girls are allotted flats where 3 girls share two rooms, one kitchen, and one washroom/bathroom. In the boys' hostel, there are double occupancy rooms along with a common washroom.

From the 2nd year, everyone gets a single room but with a common washroom. It’s compulsory for all AIIMS Bhubaneswar students to stay in the hostel and there is no concept of a day scholar here.

How is life at AIIMS Patna, Bhubaneswar, Bhopal, Jodhpur, Rishikesh? Is it as cool as life at AIIMS Delhi?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : June 10th, 2023
Lives in New Delhi

Life at AIIMS Delhi cannot be compared to other AIIMS as it is the mother AIIMS and will always be a notch better than others. Also, its location plays a major advantage in giving you the best college-life experience. 

After AIIMS, what was fulfilled by expectations of a dynamic college life was AIIMS Jodhpur. It certainly is heaven for food lovers and has many watering openings every now and then. For everyone, there is a set criteria for a good college life and for my sister, it was one that gave her freedom and academics on the same plate. AIIMS Jodhpur ended up as the best choice fulfilling both criteria.

  • AIIMS Jodhpur has a huge campus that is maintained decently and is very safe. My sister loved strolling across the campus and enjoying the serenity of the campus. 
  • There are many places to travel to during weekends and Rajasthan is a good option.
  • AIIMS Jodhpur is known for its dynamic sports environment which is better than any other AIIMS. 
  • There is no ragging and harmony between seniors and juniors is a common sight. 
  • The college holds amazing intercollegiate sports and a cultural fest. These are well-organized and attract students from many colleges.
  • The professors are cooperative and approachable so you don’t have to hesitate for getting any doubts cleared.
  • Every junior is assigned a mentor either from faculty or seniors that guides them and helps them 

AIIMS Jodhpur offers a splendid college life second only to AIIMS Delhi.

Which AIIMS is better, AIIMS BBSR or AIIMS Patna?

SR
Sachin Rajput Posted On : June 8th, 2023
Lives in Patna

I am the right person to answer this question as I have visited both institutes for personal purposes and am eligible to comment on their worth. When it comes to AIIMS, there are 2 primary factors to consider. 

  • Culture: Considering the fact that all AIIMS are on the same level with minor differences, it’s the college culture you are looking for that becomes the driving factor in your decision. North Indians who don’t want a change in environment prefer AIIMS Patna while those who want to explore other cultures and go out of their comfort zone choose AIIMS Bhubaneswar. 
  • Academics: Again, all AIIMS are almost equal academically but AIIMS Bhubaneswar is slightly better. Additionally, Bhubaneswar is more developed than Patna and has all the basic amenities that a student requires. Patna has a less student-friendly environment and also lacks hygiene due to overpopulation.

All in all, these two factors should not be the only factors you consider and it’s better to talk to alumni
