The All India Pre Medical Test (AIPMT) is a yearly college entrance examination in India. The exam is conducted by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), Delhi for admission to MBBS and BDS courses in several medical colleges around the country. Presently, 15% of the total seats in all medical and dental colleges run by the Union of India, state governments, municipal, or other local authorities in India, except in the states of Andhra Pradesh and Jammu and Kashmir, are reserved for candidates who qualify this examination. Recently reservation for SC,ST and OBC have been undertaken in AIPMT. It consists of exam at two levels. First is preliminary conducted usually on 1st Sunday of the April month. The second is mains conducted in the month of May. It is the most awaited and respected exam of the pre-medical exams. AIPMT is equivalent to All India Engineering Entrance Examination (AIEEE), which is also conducted by CBSE for entrance to engineering colleges in India. In 2009 the preliminary examination was conducted on 5 April 2009 and the final(mains) was conducted on 10 May.

The pattern of AIPMT is being changed with effect from 2010.Due to complaints about the unreliability of the subjective mains, the mains are to be made completely objective like the prelims.More difficult and application-level questions can be expected. Assertion-reason questions may be included as in AIIMS. OBC reservation is being implemented as per the questionable directives of the government, but only in central institues(i.e. not in most of the colleges covered under AIPMT).About 1900 MBBS and 250 odd dental seats are available through AIPMT,but ranks up to 2500 can reasonably hope for selection due to overlap with other entrances. In both the prelims and the mains NCERT books are used to prepare questions(almost 60% in biology).
