AIAPGET 2026 — free MCQs, mock tests, and study plan

AIAPGET MCQ bank, mock tests, and daily practice — all free.

AIAPGET (All India Ayush Post Graduate Entrance Test) is the national entrance exam for MD Ayurveda and other AYUSH PG programmes at central and deemed universities. AyurConnect provides free subject-wise MCQ practice, timed mock tests, and a daily challenge mapped to the official syllabus — everything you need to prepare without a paid coaching subscription.

Exam Overview and Schedule

AIAPGET is conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA) once a year, typically between May and July. The exam is computer-based, consists of 100 MCQs, and covers the full BAMS curriculum with an emphasis on Ayurveda clinical subjects. A percentile-based score determines eligibility for MD Ayurveda seats at AIIA, NIA, and other participating institutions. The 2026 exam schedule is confirmed by NTA on the official website. AyurConnect's forum posts verified schedule updates as soon as they are announced — check the AIAPGET thread for the latest dates.

AIAPGET Syllabus

The syllabus covers all subjects taught across the five BAMS years: Padartha Vigyana, Ashtanga Sangraha, Sanskrit, Rachana Sharir, Kriya Sharir, Dravyaguna, Rasa Shastra, Charaka Samhita, Sushruta Samhita, Roga Nidana, Shalakya, Prasuti Tantra, Kaumarabhritya, Swasthavritta, Panchakarma, and Kayachikitsa. Clinical subjects (Kayachikitsa, Panchakarma, Shalakya) tend to carry more weight in recent papers. The AyurConnect MCQ bank is tagged by subject so you can identify and address your weak areas systematically.

How to Use the MCQ Bank and Mock Tests

Start with a diagnostic mock test to benchmark your current level across subjects. Then focus subject-wise MCQ practice on your weaker areas before returning to full mock tests in the final weeks. Each question includes an explanation that goes beyond the correct answer — understanding why wrong options are wrong is as important as knowing the right one. The daily challenge gives you a short set of mixed-subject questions every day, which is particularly effective for maintaining breadth while you go deep on individual subjects.

Suggested Study Plan

If you have six months to exam day: spend the first three months completing a systematic subject-by-subject revision using notes and subject MCQs, targeting one major subject per week. In months four and five, shift to full mock tests twice a week and subject MCQs on non-test days. The final month should be entirely mock tests and revision of your flagged weak areas. If you have three months: compress the subject revision to six weeks using the MCQ bank as a primary study tool (reading explanations counts as revision), then spend six weeks on mock tests with targeted gap-filling.

FAQ

How many MCQs are in AIAPGET?

AIAPGET consists of 100 MCQs in a two-hour computer-based test. Each correct answer carries four marks and there is a one-mark negative marking for wrong answers. Unattempted questions carry no penalty.

Which subjects have the highest weightage in AIAPGET?

Clinical subjects — particularly Kayachikitsa, Panchakarma, and Shalakya — typically account for a significant portion of questions in recent years. Dravyaguna and Rasa Shastra are also heavily tested. That said, NTA does not publish an official subject-wise distribution, so broad preparation across all subjects remains important.

Is there negative marking in AIAPGET?

Yes — one mark is deducted for each incorrect answer. It is worth attempting questions only when you can eliminate at least two of the four options; random guessing on all remaining questions is generally not a sound strategy.

Can I use AyurConnect MCQs without creating an account?

You can browse and attempt questions without logging in, but creating a free account lets you track scores, see your history, bookmark questions, and resume mock tests. Account creation takes under a minute.

How is AIAPGET different from state PG entrance exams?

AIAPGET is the national exam and its rank is accepted at central universities (AIIA, NIA) and many deemed universities. State exams like KUHS, RGUHS, and MUHS govern seats in their respective state colleges. Many students appear in both to maximise their options.
