Medical entrance exams are like a hard nut to crack which occur annually. More than four lakh students appear for these tests with dreams of becoming successful doctors in future. Not all are lucky enough to make it to the best institutes while other institutions which provide MBBS degrees may or may not be reputed. AFMC (Armed Forces Medical College), AIIMS (ALL India Institute of Medical Sciences), AIMS (Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences) and Bhartia Vidyapeeth are some institutions who conduct these examinations. There are thousands of medical colleges like them who conduct examinations all over India.
The rules for most of the institutions are the same except for a few private institutions. The questions are always from the syllabus of 11th and 12th standard. Physics, chemistry and biology are three subjects which are always asked in the exams. In some cases there is negative marking for every wrong answer with a few exceptions. The course content is quite vast and ample amount of time is required to gain mastery over these subjects. This cannot be done in a fortnight or a month.

It has been observed that students first finish the easy parts of a subject while the major portions are left out. In fact it should be the opposite in order to ensure a good score. Sample papers and preceding years' test papers should be practiced regularly in order to where a student stands in exams in reality. Mock tests are the best way to ensure that concepts are clear and completely understood. One of the most important factors to get success is to work according to a study plan. Equal time and devotion to all the subjects must be given in order to know all the subjects completely. 'Motivation' is an important factor which makes it easier for every candidate to prepare for medical entrance exams. Students need to know what motivates them to study, rather what makes them think more about it than any other chore.
