Hello student,

Pursuing B.Sc. in Radiology (RIT) at AIIMS as a backup plan while preparing for NEET is a solid approach. Here’s a breakdown of the details you’re confused about:

1. Exact Syllabus : The syllabus for B.Sc. Radiology entrance at AIIMS includes subjects like:

   • Physics : Similar to the NEET syllabus, covering mechanics, optics, electricity, and radiation physics.
     
     
   • Chemistry : Focus on general chemistry, organic and inorganic chemistry, also covered in NEET.
     
     
   • Biology : More focused on human physiology, anatomy, and basics of radiology techniques.
     
     
   • Mathematics : Basic mathematics concepts may also be tested.
     
     

2. Exam Pattern & Marking Scheme :

   • Duration : 90 minutes.
     
     
   • Total Questions : 90 questions (30 each from Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and possibly Math).
     
     
   • Marking Scheme : +1 for each correct answer, -1/3 for each incorrect one.
     
     

3. Average Number of Students Appearing : Around 50,000 to 1,00,000 candidates appear for AIIMS paramedical exams, but competition for radiology might be slightly less intense compared to MBBS.
   
   

4. PYQ Papers : AIIMS-specific previous year question papers for B.Sc. Radiology might be available through coaching centers, but you can also check AIIMS exam websites or resources like books for paramedical entrance .
   
   

5. Difficulty Level : Slightly easier than NEET, as AIIMS focuses more on the specific field of radiology. The difficulty is moderate, with a NEET-level understanding of science subjects providing a strong base.
   
   

6. NEET + AIIMS Possible : Yes, preparing for NEET covers the major portion of AIIMS syllabus, making it feasible to prepare for both simultaneously. The key is to focus on the additional sections in the AIIMS paramedical syllabus, like basic radiological concepts and mathematical portions.

In summary, the preparation for NEET gives you a strong foundation for AIIMS RIT, and with some extra focus on radiology-specific topics, you can handle both exams well.
