It depends on the specific paramedical course you have a diploma in and the course you want to apply for at AIIMS. Here's why:
- AIIMS offers Bachelor of Science (BSc) degrees in various paramedical fields, while diplomas are typically for lower-level qualifications.
- Upward mobility might be possible: If the diploma you hold is relevant to the BSc course you target at AIIMS, then applying could be possible.

Yes, candidates can apply to the paramedical courses if they have studied Physics, Chemistry, Biology, or mathematics as mandatory subjects in Class 12. The eligibility criteria for several paramedical courses may differ. Therefore, carefully read the terms and conditions of the course in which you want to apply. In some cases, candidates may also get lateral entry admission as well.
