CBSE(Central Board of Secondary Education) organize AIPMT(All India Pre-Medical Test) every year as a College Entrance Exam for all those students who wants to take admission to MBBS and BDS courses in various medical colleges in India.The main aim to conduct this exam is to enable impartial available of medical education to all regions in India.It was one of the few competitive exam that was merit based and without any reservation.However in 2006,under pressure,reservation was  undertaken for SC,ST & OBC.There are two level of exam-Level 1(Preliminary test)-contains 200 questions(previously) which is entirely based on NCERT books specially biology and it takes place in the month of April.Level-2(mains)-Organized in the month of May which is most awaited level of exam.In this level a candidate’s knowledge is tested on following subjects as well physics(25%),chem(25%),Bio(50%).

From 2010,exam pattern has been changed i.e., it is completely made objective type and both the preliminary and mains exam contains 120 questions and duration for both the level is 3 hours.For each correct ans 4 marks will be awarded whereas 1 mark will be deducted for every wrong ans marked.

     So the important section is Biology on which students need to focus as maximum questions are asked from this.So here is the set of questions on Biology that I have prepared so as to help the students to crack AIPMT and realise their dreams.
