Dear Sir / Ma'm, yes you can wear jeans in the JIPMER entrance test. It is better advised to avoid wearing any kind of belts or full sleeves shirt or tee-shirt as the authorities might raise an objection to it. You must also avoid using any clips or clutchers to tie up your hair, as if you do so they will make you open it, so, better tie up your hair with a rubber band and nothing else.

Dear Sir / Ma'm, the JIPMER entrance examination will be held on the 2nd of June, 2019 all over India in various examination centres.  The examination will be held in two shifts. One is the morning shift which is scheduled from 10:00 AM - 12:30 PM and the other is afternoon shift which is from 03:00 PM - 5:30 PM. The allocation of the shifts is random and your respective shift will be written in your admit card.

Hi Mohd Anas Noor,

I don't know what used to happen earlier but I can tell you the scenario of last year. Most probably this year the scenario will be same. The rank card which includes your rank and marks will have to be downloaded from the officialwebsite of jipmer after the declaration of results.

Thank you

All the best

Hi, yes they have nothing to do with the coloured version of the admit card. Its just that you need to carry your admit card along with you to the examination hall to ensure that there is no fake candidate appearing for the same that's it, whether you take coloured or black and white admit card. Well to be on safe side if you still have a doubt you can carry an extra coloured admit card with you. All the best.

It solely depends on how the question paper was set.. If you found paper to be easy, then 170+ questions need to be correct. However ,  an average of 150 to 140 + are required to get a seat in JIPMER ( that too varies according to the category). If you are preparing for JIPMER don't worry just trust your instincts you will surely clear the exam. Good luck.

Below are a few good and bad things of OMC which I have observed over the past seven years.

Good things -

The alumni of this college are at the world’s leading hospitals. May it be the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio or the All India Institute of Medical Sciences in New Delhi, Osmanians are everywhere. Having seniors in high positions helps you enormously.

There are 10 attached hospitals - this college has a hospital for every subject you study in Final year. The abundance of patient contact helps you build a strong foundation in medicine. This is something which makes Osmania unique.

The college events - OSMECON and College Fest. They happen every year. These events may not be as good as those of the engineering colleges but they do give you a chance to explore your interests apart from medicine. Sports, Literary, and Cultural activities make Osmania students well rounded.

Amazing Faculty - When I was in first year, our physiology professor established the Electrophysiology lab, the first such lab in the entire state. We conducted several experiments in Nerve & Muscle physiology on ourselves. While students of other medical colleges still learn using frog muscles, we are one step ahead of them. This experience makes learning medicine exciting.

Internship in Osmania General Hospital - There is a popular saying that ‘If you can drive on the roads in Hyderabad, you can drive anywhere in the world’. In the same way, If you have taken care of patients in the most resource scarce hospitals such as Osmania, you can help patients anywhere on the globe.

Not so good things -

Lack of enough funds. Like any other government medical college, Osmania too suffers from lack of enough funding.

No money hence no research. Once, Osmania proudly boasted of being the world’s leading center where innovations such as the chloroform commission happened. Now there is very little research that takes place here.

The old building of Osmania General Hospital, iconic as it is, is on the verge of collapse. Even the Chief Minister of the state promised to act on it. However, ground reality is that things are continuing to be the same. Despite this, many interns and residents work here day and night knowing fully that their own lives are at risk.

No efforts to publicize about the image of the college - the college faculty and the government officials are least bothered to make Osmania Medical College a popular center in the country. We need to host many more national and international conferences, seminars, meetings to make impression on world stage.

Bad things -

Hostel facilities - pathetic. The living rooms and the mess are not up to the mark. They leave a big scar on the image of the college.

Metro rail expansion has reduced the area of the college. Common, which college in the country has metro pillars encroaching into the campus?

Parking area - students often park vehicles haphazardly because of lack of proper parking facility. The landscape of the college makes car and other vehicle parking a tough task. Authorities need to work on this.

JAWAHARLAL INSTITUTE OF POST-GRADUATE MEDICAL EDUCATION AND RESEARCH (JIPMER) is an institute of national importance. Previously, it had only one campus in the heart of Pondicherry city - the capital of Pondicherry UT. The new campus started functioning 2 years back and in 2018, JIPMER Karaikal is going to take it's 3rd batch of students.

PROs:

Academics: The curriculum of JIPMER Karaikal is in par with JIPMER Pondicherry. And the concerned authorities make sure that the students in both campuses get high quality medical education to keep up to the name of JIPMER. This is to ensure uniform learning amongst students of both institutes.

Faculty: Faculty is good enough, and the low student intake in JIPMER Karaikal (50) as compared to JIPMER Pondicherry (150) ensures a better teacher-student interaction. You get well-acquainted with all your professors and vice-versa. Also, professors are ready to help you anytime. But this makes giving proxy much difficult as well. :P

Senior-Junior Relationship: You're having only two senior batches in Karaikal campus as compared to the 4 senior batches in Pondicherry campus, and then PG students. This reduces the risks of ragging (Don't be scared! By ragging I mean a basic Senior-Junior interaction, which helps you to develop a good bond with seniors). And due to less students in the Karaikal campus, Senior-Junior relation is very strong and good here (personal opinion though :p)

Hostel facilities: After gathering information from our Pondicherry counterpart, I can say hostels in JIPMER Karaikal are definitely better than that in JIPMER Pondicherry. We've 1 BHK (shared by 2 students) and 2 BHK Flats (shared by 3 students) with attached toilets. (Your own flat and no concept of shared washrooms! Yaay! :P )

Tag of “JIPMER”: As we all know, JIPMER is well-recognised name in the medical field, being one of the oldest and premier institutes of the nation. And no matter whether you graduate from Pondicherry campus or Karaikal campus, you're going to carry the proud tag of being a “JIPMERite” throughout your life.

PG Quota: When it comes to PG entrance examination, JIPMER has 33% of its seats reserved for its own students which includes students of both campuses. Now, that's a huge advantage compared to the current competition for limited PG seats in the country.

CONs:

Before starting with Cons I'll like to add that we need to acknowledge this is a budding institute. And just like any other newly started institute campus, there'll be a number of problems which needs to be faced by the first few batches.

Lab facilities: You'll get to do the must-know practicals in first year subjects. By “must-know” practicals I mean the ones without knowing which your learning is incomplete, and there are necessary equipments for that. But many of the hi-fi practicals you'll not be able to perform, which your Pondicherry counterpart will get.

Clinical exposure: Count this as 3–4 cons together because That's a major setback. JIPMER PONDICHERRY is a renowned hospital of south India and attracts patients with a variety of clinical complications from different corners. JIPMER KARAIKAL, till date, has not come up with its own hospital and uses the Karaikal GH for itself. That’s the reason the clinical set up is quite poor. The cases which come here are basic ones, without much variety and might often seem monotonous. Though this doesn't make much sense in 1st year, it'll be a issue right from 2nd year as you'll start getting clinical postings.

Karaikal is not as big as Pondicherry city. Karaikal, by size, is the second largest among the 4 provinces which come under Pondicherry UT - Pondicherry (largest), Karaikal, Yanam, Mahe. It is a town situated on the shores of Bay of Bengal. But all the amenities you require to live comfortably in a place are there.

Language: Considering it as a problem is not fair, as no matter which campus you choose, learning Tamil is compulsory as all the patients you will deal with will be Tamillians. N I feel getting scope to learn a new language is a privilege (Personal Opinion again).

Feel free to ask me in the comment box if you are having any further doubts

hope you find it helpful 

Good Luck!

Dear Ashish

If I am not wrong, you are asking if candidate’s photograph will be required during the JIPMER2019 exam or not. So, the answer is NO. There is no requirement of photograph at the exam centres.

Only the ID proof in original & a photocopy of the same and the admit card/hall ticket (are allowed) which contains

(1)Name and date of birth as typed by the candidate in the application

(2)Photo and signature image as uploaded by the candidate

(3)Examination City allotted and Roll Number
