Why to choose AIIMS Kalyani over other Medical colleges

Likes

The infrastructure and the the quality of life in AIIMS is great and you would love to live there
The place has hoghest and most qualified clinicians which motivate you to become one of them
The academics and the faculties are superb

Dislikes

The campus has yet to develop cocurricular infrastructure fully
There is a bit of understaffness in the college
The campus is away from city and needs a bit of development outside the campus

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum is quite planned and great and has a lot of advantages in having a clinical and learning diagnostic approach to various diseases. One area where the curriculum can improve is by having more practical classes rather than theoretical classes. The exams are quite difficult but are quite planned to make you understand the clinician and the passing percentage is 50 percent.

Likes

Top-notch hostel facility, better than most other colleges.
The most beautiful campus of all other medical colleges in India

Dislikes

The location is a bit on outskirt from city
The IPD is still not 100% functional after 5 years

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum spreads over 4.5 years + 1 year of compulsory internship. It includes a total of 19 subjects, these subjects prepare you well for handling patients in real life. AIIMS being an Institute of National Importance, has curated the curriculum very well with lots of focus on practical clinical knowledge. 4.5 years is divided into total 9 semesters and 4 Professional exams. In each exam you have to score more than 50% in each subject to pass. The course academics is very rigid and thorough, so you have to study hard really to come out as a skilled doctor.
