Prior to GIMS,
we have been in operation since 2005
through USMLE Success.

We successfully coached many medical students,


desirous of migrating to USA,
and many secured very good marks in all the Steps.
We also prepared students for
PLAB (for UK) and
other licensing exams of
Australia, Canada, etc.
To impart,
to students preparing for
USMLE, PLAB and
other competitive medical examinations,
the same quality and
practically-tested coaching methodology
which stresses on
laying a strong foundation
by giving a comprehensive knowledge of
basic Non-Clinical Subjects and
teach Clinical Subjects in a
very effective but easy to understand manner,
GIMS came into existence.

Architecture of Medical Education
at GIMS
Initially to start with we teach the
Structural Organization i.e. Anatomy.
Architecture of Medical Education
at GIMS
After knowing the Structure a medical student
should know what it does? i. e. Physiology
Architecture of Medical Education
at GIMS
A doctor can be considered as a
biological mechanic i.e.
once he knows proper structure and function
then only he can identify the abnormality
associated with it to repair. i. e. Pathology
Architecture of Medical Education
at GIMS
Just by knowing or identifying the abnormality
there is no use. He has to apply a proper
treatment mechanism which should be
effective without any complications. This is
accomplished through Pharmacology.
Architecture of Medical Education
at GIMS
All the above 4 points is a learning process
before practical, so integrating all the above
aspects are important for a case study and
diagnosis which makes him a qualitatively
superior with comprehensive knowledge and
this can be gathered by Internal Medicine.
What GIMS can do

remember the important concepts
in a much superior and effective manner.
