After a long battle and protests, AIIMS Nagpur students have finally managed to abolish the uniform dress code. This rule came out after relentless social media demonstrations. The decision was finalized by Dr. MH Rao. Additionally, relaxation was also made in mess, hostel, and campus timings.
As for the alteration in the dress code, boys are expected to wear formal trousers and a full-sleeved shirt, while girls can either wear a salwar kurta with sleeves or formal trousers and a full-sleeved shirt.

Do VMMC MBBS students have secured seats for PG in VMMC?
No, VMMC MBBS students do not have secured seats for PG in VMMC. Here is how the internal quota of the university works
Once the students complete their UG course from their college, they're eligible for the internal quota of PG seats of their University and not the specific college. This means that the internal quota is for the university and not the college. In your case, the internal PG quota belongs to IPU and not VMMC. So, Students of all the colleges under IPU are eligible for IPU PG seats.
Earlier there was only VMMC (UG) under it, Mao PG seats were easily available in VMMC and RML, so the seats were kind of secured. But with more and more colleges under IPU, the PG quota of IPU too has lost much of its value.
So, the VMMC MBBS students don't have secured PG seats.
If you have options to pursue an MBBS in AIIMS Bhubaneswar or JIPMER, Puducherry, which college would you prefer now?
Both JIPMER and AIIMS Bhubaneswar are equally good in terms of infrastructure and academics. While JIPMER has a magnificent campus, AIIMS Bhubaneswar buildings are more modern because of recent construction. Overall, there aren't many differences between the 2 institutes. The academics, infrastructure, and hostel facilities are somewhat similar. but if I was in your place, I would have chosen JIPMER, Puducherry for UG over AIIMS Bhubaneswar. While this may surprise many, I have logical reasons to support my stance. The one solid reason why I chose JIPMER was the beauty and the places to explore.
- The breakfast shops in Auroville
- The Rocky Beach with moonlight shimmering on the water.
- The Le Cafe
- Villa Shanti
- Villa Helena, Celine’s Kitchen, DisDis&Co, Satsunga, Le Club, Rendezvous, Villa Krish, Coromandel Cafe, and many more.
- A pretty resort, Ocean Spray
While some might find it illogical to prefer a certain institute just because of the restaurants near it, for me it certainly is a valid point. As a medical student, it’s very important to take breaks and these beautiful places will surely take you to a different world.
However, JIPMER is suitable only for UG. For PG, AIIMS Bhubaneswar is the best option because the language barrier is a major problem in the South.
Overall, JIPMER is an excellent option for UG while AIIMS Bhubaneswar can be preferred for PG,

Which MBBS college will be better if I have to go for USMLE after AIIMS Delhi and top Delhi colleges?
Honestly, I believe that more than the institute it is your caliber and dedication level that decides if you will be able to crack USMLE. The AIIMS tag definitely helps but is not the sole medium through which you can crack USMLE.
Here is a shining example that proves my theory. Dr. Nikhil Munshi neither did his MBBS from any AIIMS nor a Delhi college yet managed to crack USMLE. He completed his medical degree from Maharaja Sayajirao University, followed by an internship and residency in internal medicine at Shri Sayaji General Hospital and Maharaja University in India. After completing an oncology fellowship at Johns Hopkins Oncology Center, he became a professor of medicine in the Department of Medicine at Harvard Medical School, as well as an attending physician at VA Boston Healthcare System and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. His journey proved that even an average college can produce excellent doctors and vice versa. What you should focus on is yourself and not the institute.
So we can say that studying at AIIMS or Delhi colleges like MAMC gives you an upper hand at USMLE for sure but are not necessary for the same.
What are KMC manipal mbbs degree benefits over degree from state govt universities?
Government colleges offer excellent patient loads with minimal fees. Everything including hospital equipment, the salary of professors, and all the other expenses are covered by the government. In the case of private hospitals, all such expenses are paid by the students so the fees are high. KMC Manipal enjoys a good reputation because of the clinical exposure and quality of education it offers. In fact, its patient exposure is comparable to that of Government colleges. Being associated with 3 Government hospitals gives you a spectrum of cases and a huge workload for interns and PGs. Here are a few perks of choosing KMC over Government colleges
- KMC gives you an edge over USMLE
- It has an excellent research culture as it helps you to get into ICMR, a short-term studentship. In case you are presenting a paper they even sponsor you to go to a conference.
- The extracurricular culture is also great here. It organized Utsav, its intercollegiate fest, and also allowed students to attend other fests like PULSE (AIIMS), Spandan (JIPMER), etc.
Eventually, the decision depends on your financial status.

What research can one do in AIIMS Delhi as an MBBS student?
The research work is not influenced by the institute you belong to rather it’s your hard work, talent, and determination that comes to count. No doubt, AIIMS has some top-notch ongoing research every time, but research work can be done from any institute. I have seen many AIIMS students work with labs at IIIT, IIT Delhi, NCBS, IISERs, and labs abroad. Every research opportunity can be availed just by the click of an email.
The primary step is to analyze where your interest lies and look up to a professor who is conducting research in the same. Contact him and convince him of your abilities and passion. As a bonus, you can take part in research electives or summer schools in your field which will add to your overall learning experience.
Some might find it difficult to do research work alongside their studies but remember your hard work will not go in vain. But it’s important to note that as a UG student, research should be solely based on your interest and not something you are doing out of boredom or as a formality.
