My answer is specifically for the UG students. In my opinion, JIPMER Pondicherry is a better option than AIMS Jodhpur. It's one of the oldest Indian medical colleges. Let's go through a few pros and cons of the institute to explain further why this will prove to be a better option for you.

Pros

  • The first year strengthens your basics before providing a real-life clinical experience. This helps the students to understand things excellently.
  • Nd year students are introduced to clinics in one of the Apex hospitals of South India. The OPD flow is around 8-9000 here. You are given respect here even as a second-year student.
  • The third year witnesses the biggest academic, cultural, and sports fests of South India. This fest helps you meet medical students from all over the country and also improves your social skills.to take case histories daily. You will receive continuous guidance from the faculty and senior residents.
  • Internships at JIPMER give you hand on experience which most medical colleges fail to offer. A few tasks you will be assigned are taking blood samples, putting central lines, correcting hydroceles, catheterizing, and doing real-life CPR 
  • Pondicherry is a good place to take a break from studies and explore. It has amazing eateries 
  • The hostel life at JIPMER is that of freedom and privacy.
  • JIPMER also has the benefit of a PG quota

Cons

  • You will face a huge language barrier in Pondicherry to overcome which you will have to learn Tamil.
  • The food served in the mess is average.
  • The local airport provides a single flight only so you have to travel to Chandigarh while going home.

Any smart person can point out that the pros clearly overshadow the cons and thus we can say that while AIIMS Jodhpur is fast growing, it will take some time to match the level of top medical colleges like JIPMER, PGI, and AIIMS Delhi.
