How many semesters are typically included in MBBS program at AIIMS Delhi?

If you're considering the MBBS program at AIIMS Delhi, you should know that it consists of 10 semesters over a total of 5 years. It’s all about hands-on learning and clinical exposure, especially by the 5th year when we start our internships. The rigorous training definitely gets you ready for real-world challenges!

Sure! Here’s the rephrased answer:

Absolutely! We have a total of 9 semesters in the MBBS program at AIIMS Delhi. Here’s the breakdown:

• 1st and 2nd semester in the 1st year
• 3rd, 4th, and 5th semester in the 2nd year
• 6th and 7th semester in the 3rd year
• 8th and 9th semester in the 4th year

University exams are held in the 2nd semester, 5th semester, 7th semester, and 9th semester. Overall, there are 13 exams throughout the 5.5 years of the MBBS course. Just before the university exams, we also have our PUCs (pre-university exams).

So, 9 semesters + 4 PUCs = 13 exams in total. Hope this clarifies everything!

Well, that varies from university to university. Here’s how it works at AIIMS Delhi.

In total, there are 9 semesters, plus a final year of internship. The semesters are divided as follows:

• 1st and 2nd semester ? First year MBBS
• 3rd, 4th, and 5th semester ? Second year MBBS
• 6th and 7th semester ? Third year MBBS
• 8th and 9th semester ? Final year (Third II MBBS)

Now, regarding internal exams:

• In the first year, there are periodic Part completion tests (2 each semester, totaling 4).
• Term end exams, which are one of the major internal assessments.
• Prelims, which are the MOST MAJOR INTERNAL EXAMS before the professional university exams. They carry the HIGHEST WEIGHTAGE in terms of internal marks.

Lastly, for university exams, there will obviously be 4 years' worth...
