₹ 4,125The general answer is yes. AIIMS hostels do provide separate rooms for students. But this does not apply to every AIIMS.
For example, AIIMS Delhi and AIIMS Raebareli provide separate rooms but AIIMS Raipur doesn’t. The 1st year students have to share rooms with 3-4 other students.
So it all depends on which AIIMS hostel you are in.
Whether you should leave Seth GS for AIIMS or not can be understood only after going through a general comparison between the two:
Academics: The academics of both colleges are somewhat similar.
Lifestyle: KEM is located in Mumbai so you will have to go through the metro lifestyle which includes pollution, crowd, and an unhygienic lifestyle.
Hostel: Hostel facilities are much better in AIIMS than in KEM. Also, KEM does not provide hostel facilities to 1st-year students. The hostels in KEM are very crowded.
Crowd: KEM has a larger batch and there might be crowding.
The final decision is yours.
Every AIIMS is good and not much comparable. But if you compare it to AFMC, there are some things you need to know.
Firstly AFMC has a bond of 1 cr rupees if you want to quit after MBBS. But the infrastructure of AFMC Isi is exceptionally good. It just does not provide you the basic medical facilities but trains you in shooting, swimming, working in challenging conditions, daily PT, etc. All this will prepare you for a tough future.
The best part of AIIMS on the other hand is no bond is required to be signed. AIIMS focuses on medical facilities only. The classrooms are well-designed. The library, playground, gym, and other facilities add to the overall infrastructure of the college.
I will recommend that you go for AIIMS if you are willing to pursue PG right after MBBS. AFMC on the other hand lets you pursue PG only after serving for a fixed period of time. But don’t worry, the internship offers a good amount of money.
Rather than a stipend, students at AIIMS Bhubaneswar, Patna, Raipur, and Rishikesh are offered salaries that involve the deduction of taxes. The total salary of a Junior Student both clinical and non-clinical is around INR 90000/month. After the deduction of taxes and house rent, it amounts to INR 76000/month.
These figures keep changing with time.
If you are a student at AIIMS Raipur, you won’t have a uniform in the first year. You will be asked to wear decent clothes that are usually formal. This leaves a good impression on your patients when you will be going for clinical posting in the next year.
The best part is our names are printed on our lab coats written above the AIIMS logo.
Every college is good in one or the other aspects. Its location, faculty, and infrastructure are the main factors that determine a college's priority. The following list contains the colleges in order of priority based on their pros and cons.
Pros:
BHU: No requirement to sign a bond
Seth GS: Located in Mumbai with the best academic structure
KGMU Lucknow: The location and academic structure are perfect.
Other AIIMS: No need to sign any bond and the fee structure is affordable. AIIMS tag can help you with USMLE purposes.
Cons:
BHU: Located in Varanasi, it lacks the facilities of metropolitan cities like Delhi and Mumbai
Seth GS: Mumbai is expensive and a bond of 1 year needs to be signed
CMC Vellore: You will have to learn Tamil as it is located South India. The fee structure is pretty expensive.
Other AIIMS: They are usually not located in a good location except for Bhopal and Bhubaneswar.
The preferred order as per the pros and cons can be - BHU> AIIMS> KGMU> Grant> Seth GS> CMC Vellore
One college can be good for you but bad for others. This is because your own needs determine which college is best for you. So choose wisely.
AIIMS Raipur is one of the top medical colleges in the country. It has one of the best medical faculties in India. It offers good academics and decent clinical exposure to students. There are good flow of patients in all departments, i.e. Surgery, Cardio, Medicine, Ortho, Skin, ENT, etc.
The institute offers all basic amenities. The E-library and the central library have a huge collection of books. There is 24*7 WiFi available in the E-library.
My friend is a student of AIIMS Raipur. She shared her experience of her college life there.
The campus is situated a bit far from the residential areas. The faculty is very professional and experienced. They cooperate with you throughout the medical examination process.
What catches the eye is the cleanliness of the campus. It’s exceptionally well-maintained and tidy.
The library is massive with an extensive collection of academic books. The annual fest Oriana is a fun-filled event that every student of AIIMS Raipur looks forward to. Many trips are also planned to develop good relationships between students.
My friend says her experience in AIIMS Raipur was one of a kind.
I would personally recommend you choose AIIMS Raipur over Pt. Jawahar Lal Nehru Memorial Medical College. Although there are many reasons that have gotten me to this conclusion, I will list down the core reasons that will help you make up your mind.
Pros-
AIIMS Raipur is a central institute that lays more emphasis on quality education.
You don’t have to sign any bonds
You get to meet a better crowd. This is because AIIMS Raipur constitutes the cream of medical students. Whereas in Pt. JNM, people who are not selected in other colleges usually get admitted.
The infrastructure is equally good in both colleges. But the hostel facilities are horrible in Pt. JNM.
The DKR super specialty hospital is the pride of AIIMS Raipur.
AIIMS Raipur is house to a full-fledged sickle cell research institute
AIIMS Raipur also has an advanced Cardiac Institute and a new regional cancer center building
Cons-
The patient load at Pt.JNM is comparatively less than that at AIIMS Raipur This helps you protect your quality over quantity agenda. This is also a must needed skill for every doctor.
Pt. JNM has an extensive aluminum base whereas AIIMS Raipur lacks in this aspect.
The faculty at AIIMS Raipur is understaffed. Whereas at Pt.JNM the faculty is experienced and also satisfies the MCI criteria.
I hope the points helped you reach a decision.
Among the new AIIMS, AIIMS Bhopal tops the list of libraries as well as other facilities.AIIMS Bhopal has a modern-day library which is the best you can avail yourself of. If you need some strong points to believe this, I have listed them below:

The entrance to the library has a sensor-installed automatic door.
A fully digitalized scanner has made issuing and returning books a hassle-free process
