#Revision from notes

Regular revision of topics is key to success in INI CET 2026 January session. Handmade notes prepared during initial days of preparation prove very handy for revision. By this time you must have an idea how much time will it take for revision of a particular topic. Calculate total number of hours you require to revise all topics of syllabus. Divide total number of hours by 30. On an average, you need 4-5 hours for revision of every topic. You can make different combinations of topics such as revising vast topics with interesting ones as per your choice.

#Regular practice through mock test

Mock test is replica of exam paper which helps you to understand INI CET exam pattern 2025 and other aspects of exam.

This exercise helps you to improve speed and accuracy while attempting questions on INI CET 2025 exam-day.

Q:   Which part of INI CET syllabus is difficult to prepare?
A:

All three subjects such as clinical, pre clinical, para clinical are equally difficult to prepare. Clinical topics are vast in comparison to pre and para clinical topics. Ideally candidates should focus on understanding the concept. Candidates should keep the fact in mind INI CET is one of the toughest exams so shallow preparation doesn’t work. They should have robust plan and strategy to crack the exam.

Q:   Is INI CET exam tough?
A:

Yes. Exam is one of the toughest exams to get admission into PG courses in medical field. However, it can be cracked with proper planning and strategies. Students are advised to prepare all subjects taught during MBBS course. Only those candidates who have valid MBBS degree from recognised college or university can apply for exam. AIIMS conducts exam twice a year, January and July session.

Q:   Can I crack the INI CET exam by studying only clinical section?
A:

No. As INI CET exam is one of the toughest medical exams, only covering clinical section may not help. Candidates have to prepare both pre and para clinical as well. Though clinical section comprises good number of questions, candidates are advised to focus all the three sections to score top ranks in INI CET exam. 

#Check previous question papers

Candidates should check previous years’ question papers so that they have a better idea about difficulty level of INI CET question paper 2025.

AIIMS doesn’t release official question paper but one can check question paper released by various coaching institutes based on the memory of exam takers.

#Learning from your mistakes

It is not enough to only practice mock tests. Candidates should do a thorough analysis of performance in mock test for INI CET 2025. Work on those areas where you lost marks in mock test. Also, check why you couldn’t manage to attempt all questions in given time. Candidates can consult seniors/professors to review their performance and provide their valuable inputs to further improve their scores.

#Take care of health

This is crucial time as one can’t afford to fall ill during this crucial time. Candidates should take a small break during study. They should sleep for at least 5-6 hours daily too. This may not be possible for some students but they should understand minds also need rest. Some candidates stay awake at night or skip eating on time. Such things may pose risk to their health.

#Recreational Activities

Candidates should dedicate some hours of day to those activities which they like most such as watching shows, listening favourite song or anything which make them happy. This helps to rejuvenate mind by breaking cycle of monotony and daily routine.
