Remarks
The admission process was smooth. Counselling happened at AIIMS Delhi itself. We went and chose our colleges based on rank. All the people from the AIIMS administration were present and it was a pleasure listening to them address us.
Course Curriculum Overview
The thing with being in the best medical institute in the country is that the internal exams here aren't as breezy as compared to some other places. We are expected to have a certain standard of knowledge at all times. And that's a totally justified and beneficial thing. There are 3 professionals in all. Each semester, there is a mid semester and end semester exam.
Internships Opportunities
There is 1 year of internship after MBBS. 9 months at AIIMS hospital here, and 3 months of village posting at Ballabhgarh. It is a paid internship at around 26k per month for now. It is the ideal time for interns to learn hands-on practical skills and clinical aptitude. However, they can be overworked at times, considering that interns and JRs are usually the workhorses in the hospitals. It is rewarding though, as actually being in the clinics then can be a great way of preparing for the PG entrance simultaneously.
Fees and Financial Aid
Well, money is never an issue with studying at AIIMS. The fees for the entire duration of MBBS is less than Rs. 6,000. Also, food in the messes is subsidised and highly affordable. After 4.5 years of study, there is a year of paid Internship at the hospital that is a great learning curve.
Campus Life
There are dance, music and art societies formed within the students. Most of them have their Instagram channels as well. There is no dearth of extracurricular talent as well in the most prestigious and difficult to enter the medical college of the country.
Hostel Facilities
We have all been provided with single rooms. No time limit for coming in or going out. No restrictions. Food in messes is affordable, quality is not bad either. However, there can be certain issues with the messes sometimes. But they are resolved quickly. Gautam Nagar, Green Park (INA) are the places you can rent a room on PG nearby. All walking distance.
