• Aspirants must have passed Class 12 or its equivalent exam with Physics, Chemistry, Biology which shall include a practical test in Science subjects & English individually and must have obtained minimum of 50% aggregate (40% aggregate for SC/ ST/ OBC) to apply for HPU BAMS.
• No candidate shall be admitted to BAMS Degree Course unless he/ she has attained the age of seventeen years on or before 31 December of the year of his/ her admission in the first year of the course and not more than of 25 years on or before the 31st December of the year of admission in the first year of the course.

One reason why BAMS can be considered difficult is the sheer volume of material that students are expected to learn. Ayurveda is a complex system of medicine that has been developed over thousands of years, and there is a vast amount of knowledge that needs to be acquired in order to become proficient in the field. In addition to the theoretical knowledge, BAMS students are also expected to gain practical experience through internships and clinical rotations, which can be demanding and time-consuming.

Another factor that contributes to the difficulty of BAMS is the fact that it is a highly specialised field. Unlike more general degree programs, such as Business or Psychology, BAMS focuses specifically on Ayurveda and related subjects. This means that students must have a strong interest in the field in order to succeed, as well as a willingness to devote themselves fully to their studies.

Overall, while BAMS can be challenging, it is also a rewarding course of study for those with a passion for Ayurveda and a desire to help others through the practice of Medicine.
