How difficult is the JIPMER exam when compared to the NEET & AIIMS?

You will be surprised to know that the JIPMER exam is one of the easiest medical exams. The majority of the questions are easier than those asked in NEET. The ratio of the difficulty levels of JIPMER, NEET, and AIIMS is loosely 0.75:1:1.5.

The JIPMER syllabus is based on the Tamil Nadu state board syllabus , so it’s quite easy for CBSE students but the topics that are only a part of the Tamil Nadu state board need to be studied. The exam paper has 10 questions from the English language and 10 from logical reasoning. 

However, the acceptance rate is extremely low at JIPMER due to the lesser number of seats. Unlike AIIMS, JIPMER does not have many branches. The main JIPMER is located in Puducherry while a new JIPMER came up in Karaikal. There are a total of 200 seats under JIPMER, 200 Seats in JIPMER Pondicherry & 50 seats in JIPMER Karaikal. Given the fact that around 1 lakh students appear for the exam every year, and only 200 get selected, the acceptance rate is as low as 0.15%.

Overall, the selection rates of the aforementioned institutes have been arranged below

AIIMS Delhi(~0.02%) > JIPMER Puducherry (~0.1%) > New AIIMS(0.5–1%)
