Success Story of Dr Gaurav (89th Rank in AIPG)

"CONGRATSS TO DR Gaurav From DMnDL"

First of all..all the best to mds aspirants...I hope that this helps you all in deciding your preparation strategy...theres no one method to prepare for exams..take advice from all but follow that which is best for you....

1. Time: I attended my internship for about 6 months...then started prep for this year exams..so had roughly 6 and half mnths in my hand for aipg and 7 and half for mahe and comed...time is not less for those who have just started prep....but time management is very very important...every second counts..utilize this time to its fullest extent...remember..each second you waste ..your competitors get ahead of you..SO DONT GIVE THEM THIS CHANCE!!!

2. Books to be done-Pulse and Dentest
Neeraj wadhwan..(excellent explanations)
Aiims dental papers
Mudit khanna (for aiims and aipg only)-previous 5 years papers
Amit ashish (again for aiims and aipg only) 5yrs
NBDE papers (very imp for aiims, aipg and mahe)
Other entrance papers (can be found in Dental bytes or Dental quest)
Dental explore (for bhu papers)
Prabhakaran- for perio

3. Theory-

Reading theory part is very important..mere cramming mcqs wont help you...u must understand question, logic behind it and then solve questions...also dont read just anything and everything...thats not possible...read what is relevant...AND FROM GOOD BOOKS .mark new questions from explanations, synopsis and maintain separate diary for values,scientists, years..etc...theyll be helpful to you for last time revisions...and yes I must tell here that my theory part was always strong thoughout my clg life...so i didnt face too many difficulties in reading books and my ntes..:) But yes...if you feel that youre not able to do theory part then its ok...


4. Schedule-
Having a proper schedule is very very important...set your priorities...like which topic and how many topics u have to finish in how much time...try to stick to it...also dont make a very hectic schedule....relax...dont forget to breath..;)

5. Coaching classes-

I didnt join any classes...coz I started very late and so I had to decide things myself...if u think that u wont be able to keep up to your schedule..join coaching institute...but dont just rely on them completely...set your priorities and work according to them...

6. Sequence-
a. what I did first was read a particular topic from buks...then solved questions from pulse ,dentest and read their explanations..
b. once I completed them...I moved on to aipg and aiims papers...
c. aipg and aiims papers didnt take too much time( thry and explanation part becums very handy in these papers and helps solving them)....next I started NBDE papers...NBDE are comparitively easy to do...but still essential...and lengthy...so plan properly....U dont have to do them at a stretch...u can also do them at a rate of 1-2 papers per day right from beginning...since new aspirants have a lot of time u can finish them off within 4-5 months at this rate...
d. right from very first day of my preparatn..started Mudit khanna and amit ashish...did few questions per day instead of doin them at a stretch...they took A LOTT OF TIME!!! Problem with these papers is that they are very difficult to retain..and very very important...aipg and aiims definately repeats questions from these...keep separate time for their revision...believe me ppl...doin these papers was HARDEST part of my strategy and they are very volatile...so make sure u revise them properly...I didnt do explanations as there was no time...but in any case if u read them its always beneficial..
e. then I started bytes...there was no time left so cldnt fnsh all papers..but THE MORE YOU DO THE BETTER!!!! these papers not only helps you to assess your preparation but also builds up your speed..and also tells you the important topics and pattern for a particular exam...and it also serves as a question bank from where questions can be asked...
 f. prabhakaran...perio has about 300questions..can be done anythime u want...by the time I reached this stage I had already done a lot of questions...and many were repeat from prabhakaran...so doing it wasnt a problem...
g.after aipg,ull again get around one mnth...again set your eyes on next important exam...PREPARE ACCORDING TO IT!! make your schedule according to it...dont modify your schedule for other exams that comes in between...like my next exam was comed...so i studied according to it..and just revised 1-2 days before jss, kle...

7. REVISION: 
This is the MOST IMPORTANT aspect of your preparations..remember...DOING A NUMBER OF BOOKS DOES NOT COUNT. BUT NUMBER OF REVISIONS YOU DO IS MORE IMPORTANT. revise as many times as possible...forgetting things is normal...but what matters is who forgets less..keep separate time for revision...

8. Time to be given per day
Now it depends upon time u have in your hand..and your speed..when I was attending internship period..I was able to stdy 3-4 hrs per day...afterwards when I really sat for prep I increased it to 7-8 hrs per day...and eventually to 12-13...It was tooo hectic for me...but i had to compensate for time lost in clg..those preparing this year and starting right away, youll be having more time so u dont have to stress so much...relax but dont relax too much..on avg u need to give abt 8-10 hrs per day for prep.

9. Believe in yourself
If anyone else can do it...youre no less...keep faith..:)
I hope it helps you in your preparation...
