AIIMS Paramedical study plan
AIIMS Paramedical · Give each week a clear focus.
8 weeks · About 6 hours per week
Paramedical Technical Knowledge & General Knowledge and Awareness
Map the full Paramedical Technical Knowledge syllabus into a one-page checklist of every unit and subtopic you must cover
Define the scope of General Knowledge and Awareness by listing the static-GK categories (polity, geography, history, economy, general science) and current-affairs window you will track
Complete a 30-question diagnostic set in Paramedical Technical Knowledge and log every wrong answer with the underlying concept
Set up a spaced-repetition deck seeded with 40 high-yield technical terms and their one-line definitions
Your checkpoint
A dated syllabus checklist plus a scored diagnostic sheet showing your baseline percentage in Domain 4 and Domain 1
Paramedical Technical Knowledge
Study the anatomy-and-physiology unit and write short summaries of each major body system in your own words
Practise 60 technical multiple-choice questions covering first-aid, patient positioning and basic nursing procedures
Identify the three technical subtopics where your diagnostic accuracy was lowest and re-learn them from a single reliable source
Explain aloud, in under two minutes each, five core clinical procedures without referring to notes
Your checkpoint
A 60-question practice log with accuracy per subtopic and a rewritten summary sheet for your three weakest subtopics
Paramedical Technical Knowledge
Cover infection control, sterilization and biomedical waste handling, then list the key classification rules from memory
Work through 60 questions on emergency care, vital signs and specimen handling, timing yourself at exam pace
Build a one-page formula-and-values sheet for normal ranges (pulse, blood pressure, temperature, respiration, urine output)
Review every error from weeks 2 and 3 and tag it as knowledge gap, misreading, or guess
Your checkpoint
A completed normal-values reference sheet plus an error-tag summary showing the proportion of knowledge gaps versus careless errors
Paramedical Technical Knowledge & General Knowledge and Awareness
Finish the remaining technical units (instrument handling, basic diagnostics, community health roles) and close the syllabus checklist
Take a 50-question mixed technical mock under timed conditions and score it
Memorize 60 static-GK facts across polity and geography using active recall rather than rereading
Review the last four weeks of current affairs and condense them into 25 dated bullet points
Your checkpoint
A full-length timed technical mock score plus a 25-point current-affairs digest
General Intelligence and Reasoning
Learn and drill the standard reasoning families: series, analogies, coding-decoding and blood relations
Solve 100 reasoning questions with a per-type accuracy tally
Practise 15 seating-arrangement and puzzle sets using a fixed diagramming method
Set a per-question time cap for each reasoning type and test whether you can hold it
Your checkpoint
A reasoning scorecard listing accuracy and average time per question type, with the two slowest types flagged
General Intelligence and Reasoning & General English
Drill non-verbal reasoning (figure series, mirror images, embedded figures) and syllogisms until accuracy stabilizes
Complete 10 reading-comprehension passages and record accuracy plus time per passage
Revise core grammar rules (tense, subject-verb agreement, articles, prepositions) and apply each to 20 fill-in-the-blank items
Build a personal vocabulary list of 50 exam-frequency words with usage sentences
Your checkpoint
A combined English-and-reasoning practice log with accuracy percentages and a 50-word vocabulary list
General English & General Knowledge and Awareness
Practise error-spotting, sentence improvement and cloze items in timed blocks of 20
Write 8 short paraphrases of technical passages to sharpen comprehension of medical English
Revise the static-GK categories you scored lowest on and re-test them with 40 rapid questions
Review the week 4 mock and re-attempt every missed technical question cold
Your checkpoint
A timed English section score plus a static-GK re-test result showing improvement over your week 4 baseline
Paramedical Technical Knowledge & General Intelligence and Reasoning & General English & General Knowledge and Awareness
Take two full-length mixed mocks that mirror the 25/25/25/25 domain weighting and score both
Audit every remaining error and close only the highest-frequency gaps rather than learning new material
Rehearse exam-day logistics: section order, time allocation per domain and a skip-and-return rule
Recite your normal-values sheet and top 100 technical facts from memory as a final retention check
Your checkpoint
Two scored full-length mock results with a final one-page revision sheet of the 20 facts you most often forget
Milestones
Week 2: Technical diagnostic accuracy has risen by at least 10 percentage points over the week 1 baseline, and your three weakest subtopics are named in writing
Week 4: The Domain 4 syllabus checklist is fully ticked, a timed 50-question technical mock is scored, and you can recall 60 static-GK facts without prompts
Week 6: Reasoning accuracy is at or above 70 percent on at least three question types, and reading-comprehension time per passage is under 8 minutes
Week 8: Both full-length mocks are completed within the time limit, and your weakest domain has improved relative to its week 1 diagnostic score
