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?
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
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.
How many students who study for an MBBS in AIIMS Delhi also pursue a PG in AIIMS Delhi?
After completing their MBBS from AIIMS Delhi students usually go for either of these things
- 40–50% go for PG in AIIMS Delhi itself
- 20% go for PGI Chandigarh
- 10 % go to government colleges.
Rest pursue their dreams or prepare for Civil. Recently, the majority of the batch is seen leaving India for higher studies in the US.
Is AIIMS Delhi safe for a female MBBS UG student?
I cannot comment on the safety of the city as a whole but the AIIMS Delhi campus is one of the safest campuses you will find here. The college is safe for both boys and girls and students roam inside or outside the campus the entire day and no problems have been caused.
Here, the female students are given a level of freedom to come and go as their will, and their privacy is maintained.
Located in South Delhi, the campus area is safer than other parts of the city as it’s one of the most sophisticated areas of Delhi. Additionally, famous colleges in close proximity like IIT Delhi, NIFT Delhi, VMMC, and DU colleges maintain the decorum of the area. Even the Indian Parliament and India Gate are located nearby which is one of the safest areas in the whole country.
The students don’t have to travel far as most facilities are available on the campus be it a parlor or anything. Malls, cafés, and clubs can be found in close vicinity of 1–2 km making it safe for the students to go out.
I think safety should never be a concern for female M.B.B.S. students here and you can rely on the institute's security.
Which is better for MBBS: KMC Manipal or GSVM Kanpur?
KMC Manipal has an excellent crowd contrary to the general perception. Here, you need brains and not money to get admission. The admissions are based on merits so the quality of the crowd is not compromised at all. Only about 10% of the batch are NEI students or those with Indian ethnicity but are not citizens of this country WHO had to pay to get their seats. There are no management seats at all. The truth is that the number of meritorious students in government colleges is actually less because they have reservations for backward classes while private colleges do not.
So, go for KMC Manipal!
