Dehradun

When people ask about the “best” RIMC coaching in Dehradun, the truth is that it really depends on what you're looking for. Some parents want small batches, some want interview prep, and others care more about hostel and discipline. Dehradun has a pretty solid ecosystem for RIMC, Sainik and Defence prep in general, so you'll find multiple options here.

From what I've seen and heard, Doon Defence Dreamers is one of the institutes people consider for RIMC + Sainik batches because they cover written subjects like Maths, English and GK, and also introduce kids to basic interview exposure. But I still feel the best way to choose is to actually visit, talk to the faculty and see how your child feels.

If I had to choose a coaching, I'd check these things first:
• how strong the Maths and English teachers are
• whether they conduct mock tests based on the RIMC pattern
• if the batch size is manageable
• whether they give some interview/viva practice
• and definitely request 1–2 demo classes

At the end of the day, comfort and consistency matter more than fancy claims. If your kid feels supported, learning becomes much easier.
