AIIMS MBBS 2018 Results: Insights and Experiences from Insiders
The All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) Medical Entrance Exam (MBBS) is one of the most sought-after entrance exams for aspiring medical students in India. The exam not only tests the students' knowledge in various subjects but also their overall percentile ranking, which forms the basis for entrance into prestigious medical colleges. This article delves into the experiences and insights of students who secured admission through the AIIMS 2018 MBBS results.
Understanding the AIIMS MBBS Result System
AIIMS does not declare raw scores but provides overall percentiles and individual subject percentiles. The percentile ranking is a measure that shows how well a candidate performed compared to other candidates. This ranking system is crucial for determining admission into medical colleges. Any detailed discussion about individual scores is at most a calculated guess. For instance, a student like Student A could share, 'My overall percentile was 99.7542918.'
AIIMS 2018 Result Overview
The AIIMS 2018 results are now out, and many students have shared their experiences.
Insider experiences of AIR 104
A student who achieved an All India Rank (AIR) of 104, comments, 'I secured an overall 104th AIR, and I am genuinely happy with my result, although a lingering feeling of what could have been remains. My Physics percentile is comparable to the top General Knowledge (GK) percentile, and my Chemistry percentile is also quite good. However, the subject I least anticipated would bring me down was Biology, which ended up being the villain for me. Biology has always been my least favourite, and I certainly didn’t expect this outcome.'
The student adds, 'Gonna join Bhubaneswar. Anyone thinking of joining Bhubaneswar, feel free to message me. Cheers to all::#129321;'
Success story from AIR 304
Another student who achieved an overall AIR of 304 and an AIR of 385 in the General Category shares, 'My percentile stood at 99.9004178. My scores in Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and GK are 99.7694456, 99.8830992, 99.5118308, and 91.517113, respectively. This score was far beyond my expectations.'
Heartfelt share from an underdog
Another student, who performed poorly in Physics but surprisingly aced Biology and GK, reflects on their experience, 'My AIIMS exam didn’t go well, and I was not hopeful. I wasn’t surprised when my roll number was not on the rank list. I was okay with it, neither feeling bad nor sad. Yet, today morning, I decided to check my AIIMS scorecard out of curiosity. After seeing the results, I was perplexed, wondering how badly I had performed. I scored the least in GK, despite it being a general subject. I never imagined scoring this low. Now I feel sad. Last year, with a general subject score of 98.8, I qualified the exam with a cutoff of 99 for UR. However, this year, I managed to pass, but I am not eligible for counseling. GK, which usually helps others, broke my score. I don’t know what to do or how to react. It couldn’t be worse. My only chance now is the NEET to secure a decent college.'

AIIMS MBBS results present a unique scenario where students bond over the shared struggles and triumphs in the exam. The examples shared by these students illustrate the complexities and nuances of the exam system, highlighting the importance of a holistic approach to the subjects.
