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.

Both SGPI Lucknow and PGI Chandigarh are esteemed medical institutes of the country. Here are some of the facts I thought were worth mentioning.

  • The institute that offers students practical work to develop enhanced skills should be the one to opt for. 
  • Such an institute is Chandigarh PGIMER. 
  • It is reckoned as one the best institutes after Delhi AIMS for postgraduate and Ph.D. Programs.
  • PGI Chandigarh is an autonomous institute and is under the central government whereas SGPI is an autonomous is an institute under the legislature act (UP Government)
  • Although both the institutes are in the same league with AIIMS Delhi, every institute has its own benefits. 
  • PGI Chandigarh provides the best facilities to its students in the PG courses such as the clinical seats. 
  • Such a facility is not offered to the students in SGPI but is an exception when it comes to super specialty.

You should also consider the distance of these institutes from your residence. As it is one of the important things while choosing a college. Decide which one meets all your requirements and then opt accordingly.

You must open the previous year's exam papers of Biochemistry. Mark all of the topics in your biochemistry textbook where previous questions have been asked.

There is a good chance that questions on these topics will be asked again in future exams. This is especially true for PG Entrance exams in Biochemistry, Dermat, Psychiatry, and Physiology.

If you are an MBBS student, first watch the Kaplan biochemistry videos, then the Lippincott illustrated biochemistry videos, and finally the harper Kaplan videos. You will understand the concepts and there will be no need to memorize any reactions.

Among the three option mentioned, PGIMER and RML hospital is the best option for doing an MD in General Medicine. It offers great exposure and academics. The spectrum of cases, facilities available, quality of care offered is exceptional. Other than Oncology, you will have exposure to all subspecialties.

UCMS is almost in the same range. However, it has a locational disadvantage. Other than that the spectrum of cases and academics offered at the institute is quite good. 

VMMC is also a decent option. But it has a high patient load. Academics are really poor and you will have to go out of your way to learn things. 


BR

Here are some of the things that you can do to prepare for these examinations right from the first year onwards. 

  • Don’t just mug up the syllabus right before the examination. You won’t remember the things that you read in long term and won’t be able to apply in MCQs.
  • Check the previous year’s question papers of the examination that you are targeting. Mark them and practice.
  • Understand the examination pattern. In the new pattern, one question requires knowledge of 3-4 subjects. You have to be able to apply basic knowledge of the subjects to solve it.
  • Attend dissection and all Physiology and Biochemistry practicals mindfully. This will help in Pathology. 

Be serious about your studies. Plan everything before and go about it at your own pace.

AIIMS is definitely the better option. There are many reasons why it is the superior choice. One of them is the competition. You will be competing with lakhs of students to get selected. This entrance examination is trickier than all other entrances. Irrespective of how well-prepared you are, you are likely to get stuck between choices in the examination. 

PGIMER has a standard examination pattern. They usually aim to test how thorough you are. Also, the competition is much less. Since around 15000 or fewer people appear in the examinations.

Among AIIMS and PGIMER, the latter is comparably better. The experience and exposure you will get there are unmatched. 

AIIMS has a tendency to refer simple or non-interesting cases to Safdarjung, so students don’t get the chance to see all types of cases. PGI on the other hand is not a referral medical center. So, residents can see all types of cases from simple to complicated. 

Although owing to its location, AIIMS offers better training platforms for residents to take off.
