In Medicine, your branch preference matters more than the institution. It is so because Engineering and MBA graduates are able to switch their domain, doctors have to stick to their specialty.
It is suggested that you continue with MD general medicine rather than opting for MD emergency medicine at AIIMS Rishikesh. Here are some reasons why:
The only reason to join MD emergency medicine is if you want to practice emergency medicine without dedicating extra time after MD.
The number of MD/MS seats at PGIMER Chandigarh changes every year, every session, according to your category (General, OBC, SC, ST, Sponsored, etc.) and branch or department.
This is because for every session admission to the vacant seats is based on the previous pass-outs in that branch or department. It also depends on the demand of a particular work in that department and other factors.
Check the JSP Page website - pgimer.edu.in before every session to get the exact number of seats available in that particular session.
This session there are a total of 148 seats and 33 of them are for the General category students.
