AIIMS UG : What different needs to be done?

Greetings Readers

Continuing with my previous post on "AIIMS UG : What's the difference?", next comes the question- "What different stuff should I do specifically for AIIMS UG aside from my NEET syllabus? Answer- 

• For all three subjects - Do practice assertion-reason type questions from day 1 as they play a crucial deciding factor on your final rank in AIIMS UG. Doing these type of questions needs that your concepts are ultra-clear and you know the reason behind whatever you learn.Try to solve the confusion between "Assertion Reason Both Correct with Reason being the correct one or not" problem of options A and B of AIIMS questions.
• For paper attempting - This can be the biggest turning point as only few marks can make your rank go from hundreds to thousand to out of the merit list.Actually the golden tip here is attempt questions only which you are sure of inspite of doing less questions.Don't make blind hits.In my case I attempted 168 questions and 39 went wrong with only 129 correct.Surprised?..............................That's the case with the AIIMS paper.Even many questions you are 100% sure go wrong than what can be said of blind hits.Still got AIR of 780 with only 116.00 marks.One classmate of mine got AIR 1250 with 112.00 marks.See the stiff competition!4 Marks difference (4 questions difference since each one carries 1 marks) and gap of 470 people. That's what you face at AIIMS UG. So have a strict control at negative marking and blind hits from day 1.

• Biology - Continue what you are doing for NEET as NCERT Biology is the golden standard here also.But one thing extra is that you should have pictures and labeling of all NCERT diagrams very clear in your mind as in 2016 2 questions had been asked for labeling NCERT diagrams with them being shown colourfully on the screen.Don't 'mug up' Biology.Instead remember something only when you know the reason behind it.
• Chemistry - Do cover the syllabus of study material of coaching institutes with NCERT as the base book.For Physical Chemistry, I can say that coaching material(I did Resonance only) and the book "Problems in Physical Chemistry for AIPMT/AIIMS by Narendra Awasthi" are sufficient to tackle even out of NCERT questions.Plus in Organic Chemistry where AIIMS definitely asks questions of like JEE Main level not given directly in NCERT, solving Resonance material and "Problems in Organic Chemistry for AIPMT/AIIMS by MS Chouhan" ,trust me, can make you ready to tackle ANY QUESTION be it inside NCERT or outside NCERT book.Do complete NCERT theory for Inorganic Chem and practice questions from your coaching materials,that will be sufficient.
• Physics - This is the most hyped section in AIIMS UG."Pata nahi kya kya bolte hai log iske baare men!Koi kahta hai IIT jaisa, koi bolta hai outside NCERT,koi bolta hai impossible. Bolne waale bolte rahenge unka kuchh nahi kar sakte".But you don't need to be scared at all.Do your coaching materials as you are doing for NEET preparations.Practice questions from recommended books.
• Just one secret tip that normally people ignore.This tip was better publicized by Navsheen Singhal, AIR 1 AIIMS UG 2015.He told in an interview that NCERT Physics book needs to be done 100% as some high level questions come directly from NCERT book,especially from the "Additional Exercises" part and NCERT Exemplar Problems of Physics book. 99.99% people ignore this but the topper didn't do so and thus the reason of him being the topper."Simply don't ignore anything from NCERT".Initially,even I thought ki ye toh faaltu ke tips de raha hai,but when many more students said do,I decided to take a look at those Additional Exercise questions and NCERT Exemplar and was utterly surprised.Questions from there had been asked directly in JEE Main,NEET(AIPMT) and AIIMS. What a treasure of questions and concepts that these coaching people forget to tell us to solve!
• Then,the time when I was actually giving AIIMS UG 2016,one question came on "Poisuille's Law" which had no mention in NCERT theory but still 1 question had been mentioned in the exercises of "Mechanical Properties of Fluids" chapter of NCERT Class 11 Part 2.No mentions in any coaching material.Resonance,Aakash and Allen all missed on it(atleast in the editions which I had).Now comes the power of NCERT Physics.What they all missed but AIIMS and NCERT didn't miss.(Thanked the AIIMS topper in my mind for making that a point in his interview,otherwise that 1 question would have made a lot of difference in my rank).Many other such questions too came,but don't exactly remember them.So,do NCERT Physics and NCERT Exemplar Physics 100% to beat out that stiff competition in AIIMS UG.
• Also,make your theory portion of Physics strong by studying theory from NCERT Physics and then going for DC Pandey(JEE edition) or HC Verma. Assertion-Reason questions will test your theory aptly so be prepared.

P.S.You don't need Halliday-Resinick or University Physics here so stay away from them!

• General Knowledge - Many people may misguide you here to read history and geography but keeping the 2016 paper in mind you don't need to even touch them.You need to only know the current affairs,that to mostly of the previous year of your giving AIIMS UG(like 2016 for AIIMS UG 2017) and April and May of your exam year.In 2016 papers most questions were from previous 2 months and anyone who read a national English Daily Newspaper like 'Times of India' or 'The Hindu' for 15 minutes daily(leaving cartoons and gossips) could get 15-16 questions right.2-3 questions came from mental ability type too,like that of Direction Sense and Seating Arrangement that Class 10 students do for NTSE examination.

To conclude AIIMS UG is not at all impossible to crack for a normal NEET aspirant so be brave and go for AIIMS!
