AIAPGET Preparation Tip #01: The best time to start preparing

The curriculum of the AYUSH UG courses is very complex. It is completely different from what one has studied up to Class XII. To understand and get a clarity of the concepts in AYUSH disciplines, a candidate needs at least 3-4 years. Thus, experts suggest that the best time to start preparing for AIAPGET is in the fourth year of the AYUSH UG degree course.
