Which is better for an MS in General Surgery: AIIMS, JIPMER or PGI?
Surgery can’t be read and understood. Also, no matter the number of simulations you run through, practicing on a human body is very different.
Now, with their limited number of beds, these institutions perform complex surgeries through protocol defining procedures. As a resident at these, you won’t perform many surgeries. Also, you’ll have a limited exposure to trivial diseases. On the flip side, you’ll witness some of the best surgeons at work, and access top notch technology. To master surgery, you’ll have to become an SR at these institutions.
But at a decent government college hospital, the volume of patients is very high. As a result, you’ll be pushed into the OT. So you’ll get good practice, under proper supervision. However, at these colleges, protocols take a back seat. You’ll have to compromise with low funding as a resident at these institutions.
I would personally recommend going for a decent government college. But you should choose according to your own preferences.
Was language and food major (problems) obstacles for North Indians for an MBBS in JIPMER?
Honestly, the South Indian food served in Pondicherry cannot be tolerated by North Indians for long because they are not used to the spices and the tamarind. But the bright side is, that Pondicherry has some amazing places serving North Indian and continental food.
I don't think food is a major obstacle for a North Indian MBBS student at JIPMER. Here is what the food at Pondicherry looks like.
The above pic shows scrumptious Bread and Chocolate, Auroville. The restaurants in Pondicherry are amazing so food should be your last concern here.
As a North Indian, my friend faced some major language issues, especially at the time of applying for ward leave. Her worst experience was the RHC posting during her internship. She had to interact with people in rural areas who spoke a more complex version of the language.
Overall, North Indians might miss their food and interact with their locals but not regret choosing JIPMER despite that!
What happens if I get full marks in the AIIMS, JIPMER, and NEET?
If you get full marks in AIIMS, JIPMER, and NEET, you will become a celebrity overnight. Every coaching center will want to claim you as a student and will offer a huge amount of money for your name or rank. You will be in demand for interviews by TV channels and your written interviews will appear on 20 websites at least. Any strategy you cook or write on will gain millions of views. You can charge for your advertisement.
So, if you score full marks in AIIMS, JIPMER, and NEET, you will become very rich and famous.
What is the environment of JIPMER like? How is it different from other medical colleges?
Here are some facts about life at JIPMER-
- The college strictly follows a no-ragging policy.
- JIPMER takes discipline quite seriously. Academics is considered the second most important thing. A low attendance will straightaway lead to supplementary.
- The dress code needs to be followed sincerely. Boys can’t keep odd hairstyles and mustache cuts. You can’t wear open shoes to the clinics, even during hot weather.
- You will not be excused for a bad history taking during clinics.
- Among all academic activities, clinic postings are given the utmost importance. This ensures that you get ample exposure to cases.
- The PSM department will take you on visits to different places, from watching mosquitoes grow in the Vector Control Institute to studying villages in remote areas.
- Post-hospital and duty hours, you are free to do whatever you like.
- The hostel facility is top-notch. Hostels are completely secluded from the crowded hospital area, and ample security is provided. The hostels are at par with AIIMS Delhi hostels.
- You’ll enjoy midnight hostel parties and movie nights.
- On Curie Day and Osler Night, the girls' hostels are open for boys, and vice versa.
- The college fest, Spandan, is celebrated over 7 days and nights. No classes are held during this period.
Overall, JIPMER will provide a rich environment for your professional growth. Apart from that, Pondicherry is a beautiful place which you should definitely visit upon joining this institute. Some of these experiences, I am sure, you won’t get at most other medical colleges.
How hectic is an MD in dermatology in AIIMS Delhi, peripheral AIIMS, JIPMER or PGI Chandigarh?
I am an MD Dermatology Junior Resident at JIPMER. I can give you some details about my college.
During the first 6 months of your MD, your working hours will be from 7am to 9pm for most days. Working hours may change depending on the number of patients admitted. Your working hours will decrease for the next 6 months.
During the second year, you’ll work from 8am to 6pm. You’ll have to work for two hours extra in case of an admission under you. In the final year, you’ll work from 8am to 5pm. After that you’ll be relieved from the ward, only OP.
This is the schedule for MD Dermatology students at JIPMER.
What's your view on the new law regarding AIIMS, JIPMER, and the NEET?
I am against this new law. Here is my reasoning for the same.
AIIMS and JIPMER entrances followed separate testing patterns, and were markers of autonomy. I never liked the NEET system. It is a central gateway for all types of students- from toppers to those aiming for 300-400 marks. As a result, it has inherited a predictable pattern with easy questions. It lacks judgment parameters like intuition, improvisation, logical thinking, general knowledge, etc.
In this scenario, AIIMS and JIPMER offered an opportunity to students with a different paper solving approach. If these students lost in NEET, they were provided an opportunity through the other two exams. With serious crowding of ranks, even with top marks, it is debatable whether NEET will select only worthy candidates.
In the past, some students scored low in NEET but performed really well in AIIMS/JIPMER. Moreover, the increased stress on a single examination will lay great burden on young students.
In spite of all this, I would recommend you focus on your preparation and perform well in the upcoming NEET exam.
How should a dropper smartly study for the next 6 months to crack the AIIMS/JIPMER/NEET?
One of my friends was a dropper and managed to crack AIIMS. When asked about his strategy, he told everyone that he would perform the self-introspection exercise. In this, he would take his NCERTs and open the index.
Point out every chapter and rate your knowledge out of 5 in each topic. Rate yourself honestly to determine your strengths and weaknesses. Perform the same exercise for every subject and you will realize how much you lagged behind. This will also instill in you a desire to study hard and overcome your weak points. Study at least one chapter you are weak at thoroughly every week. Soon those chapters will become your favourite.
So, self-analysis is the key!
Can an average student get a JIPMER PG? I'm taking a drop year. Can you share your preparation schedule for success in the JIPMER PG?
Hard work and smart study is the way to go. I didn’t specifically prepare for JIPMER, AIIMS or PGI. Prepare subject-wise to ace an exam. Do not focus on a particular exam as then you’ll be stuck in solving repeats. Do solve repeats, but do that subject-wise, after completing that particular topic/subject.
Most students who crack these entrances are average students with a good preparation strategy. Analyze your weak subjects. With a basic foundation from your MBBS, four months of intense preparation is enough. Do join test series like Dams and ADR Plexus.
During my preparation days, I started my studies by solving MCQs on topics which I had covered the previous day. This was followed by 6-12 hours of study. Allot 60% of your day for strengthening your subjects, and 40% for solving MCQs. If possible, attend Dr. Thameem’s classes. Pathology is a scoring subject that also covers a lot of other subjects. For Patho, attend Devesh Mishra's classes.
I would recommend first knowing your strengths and weaknesses. Polish your strengths further, and improve on your weak areas.
Are there any droppers studying in JIPMER?
‘Dropper’ seems like an odd term to define someone.
I did have a roommate during my first year of MBBS at JIPMER who took a year drop after her 12th. During this time, she prepared well for her medical entrances. After a year, she cracked the JIPMER exam with an under 10 UR rank. After her college graduation, she went for her MS OBGY at AIIMS Delhi.
With hardwork and dedication, you’ll surely succeed in getting into JIPMER for your medical studies.
