Families from the USA will have to sort out three matters regarding SRM placement on their MCC choice list: equivalence, documents from an NRI sponsor, and US$ budget for tuition fees.
Check Physics, Chemistry, Biology/Botany & Zoology and English eligibility.
SRM's published instructions require AIU equivalence for students who studied abroad.
Prepare sponsor passport/visa, relationship proof, affidavit, embassy certificate and family tree.
Use US$50,000/year as the latest SRM-published NRI tuition reference and verify the current amount before transfer.
Preparing for AIIMS from the USA or another country means balancing school, time zones, NCERT-based NEET preparation and counselling readiness. These student videos show how learners prepared for NEET from abroad and built the discipline needed for a competitive medical-admission target.
This student journey is useful for NRI families who want to understand how NEET preparation can be managed alongside a U.S. school schedule. For an AIIMS aspirant, the useful lessons are consistency, NCERT revision, question practice and mock-test discipline.
Watch Student StoryThis overseas-student story shows the preparation journey behind a competitive NEET result. Students targeting AIIMS can use it as motivation while remembering that final AIIMS admission must still be judged through the student's actual AIR, category and MCC counselling.
Watch Success StoryAIIMS does not have a separate NRI quota, so an NRI student targeting AIIMS needs a strong NEET rank. Choose a preparation plan based on the student's grade, current Physics-Chemistry-Biology foundation, available study time and the amount of NEET syllabus still to be covered.
Course hours and listed prices are planning references from the current course block. Confirm live course details before enrolment. No preparation course can guarantee AIIMS admission.
These result boards show NEET outcomes from TestPrepKart students, including students preparing from outside India. They can help AIIMS-focused families understand what overseas students can achieve through structured NEET preparation, but they are NEET result boards rather than an AIIMS allotment list.
Review the 2026 result board to see student outcomes. For AIIMS planning, compare the student's actual AIR and category with the relevant AIIMS campus and the latest MCC counselling round rather than relying only on marks.

Previous-year results can provide useful preparation context, but they should not be converted directly into an AIIMS prediction. Marks-to-rank movement and AIIMS closing ranks can change significantly from one year to another.
