Eight reasons why students are not joining the New AIIMS. 1. Reputation not established. 2. First batches will face difficulties. 3. Top faculty is not joining. 4. Without dissection facilities, anatomy will be incomplete. 5. Buildings under construction. 6. Students will have to go to other Medical colleges for dissection, practicals and clinical postings. 7. Performance in Pre PG will suffer. 8. AIIMS students will not avail benefit of 50%State quota in Pre PG.
