AIIMS is the Toughest Exam in the world...

Well.....what i always knew and feared, came true today.
i finally got the data to back my claim that AIIMS Med school entrance is the toughest in the world to get into...it has acceptance rate of ONLY 0.06%..

Compare this to the proclaimed best THE HARVARD MED SCHOOL which has acceptance rates ranging arnd 1.5-3%

I salute the indian med students who slog it out year after year to be accepted into one of the best med schools not only in india but in the world......

heres the comprehensive list of other med schools in US....US which houses 30 of the world's top 50 universities....none has acceptance below 1%...AIIMS is at 0.06%.....HORRIFYING STUFF THIS!!!
