This year many states have opted out of state medical exams and will be conducting medical admissions on basis of AIPMT only. If you are a student of Chhattisgarh, Gujarat, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Manipur, Punjab, and Odisha, you must compulsorily take the AIPMT exam for admission to All India or State Quota medical seats.
