AIIMS, Patna has started clinical responsibility from first year MBBS. do you think it is good or bad?

- The medical students will interact with the patients right from the first year resulting in beefing the gap between theory and clinical practice.
- The one-month compulsory elective posting enables the student to focus on research from the first year itself. Students are required to go to institutes associated with AIIMS Patna and do research.

What type of medical checkups do they conduct at AIIMS Delhi while admitting students in MBBS?
Every AIIMS conducts several medical checkups before admitting students in M.B.B.S. Some of these include
- blood tests
- ECG
- Eye tests
- Normal Height and weight parameters
Rarely does anyone fail these tests as they are just for general purposes. The reason these tests are conducted is to prepare you for the dangerous environment you will be working in. It’s better to know the personal health information of the students to prevent any major issues. For instance, those with low WBCs must take more precautions as they are more vulnerable to diseases like TB. However, these tests should be taken seriously as one of my friends shared a story that was really shocking. A student’s ECG was being tested and some issue was found.
Further diagnosis revealed a hole in his heart. Had these tests not been conducted his condition would have worsened.
Is Midnapore Medical College a good place to do my MBBS from? Should I choose it over North Bengal Medical College?
Studying MBBS means you must forget all your past achievements and start afresh. People usually think there are certain colleges, graduating from which will be valuable in India. But keep in mind that your main focus should be on reading and gathering up knowledge.
You should focus more on self-studying than relying completely on your teachers. MBBS requires reading and re-reading. College is not a primary concern as long as you read your standard textbooks.
Government colleges have a great patient load but poor teaching faculty. Private colleges have less patient load, but better infrastructure and teaching. Finally, everything depends on your passion, interest, caliber, and skill that you acquire over years of practice.
Not all students of AIIMS or JIPMER become the best physicians. Choose a college based on your requirements and not just for your brand name.

This rule imposes no restrictions on the students commuting to and from the college as there are Bus services that pick up and drop students from the hostel and college.
