Model Papers For Ayurvedic Competitive Examinations

Ayurveda was taught by sages to their eligible disciples in olden days,known as Guru Shishya Parampara. Present times this type of learning is rarely found. In this century different universities have started this graduation (B. A. M. S.) Post graduation ( M. D. (Ay) And Ph. D. in India and also in western countries. To obtain the seat in graduate course and post graduate courses of Ayurveda candidates face the entrance examination. After completion of graduation and Post graduation, for getting services as Medical Officers/Lecturers, different state government Public Service Commissions, Union Public Service Commission ESIC have conducting the screening test inorder to select good candidates. Naturally there is a lost of competition in job as well as Post graduate courses. But candidates are in dark without proper guidance. Keeping in view of the difficulties faced by competitors, I intended to bring up a set of Model Question Papers by filtering, probing, piercing and extracting the essence of Ayurvedic standard texts. These questions are based on the vast experience of the author coaching to last five to six batches and many of the questions were given in competitive examination. Key given to the Model Papers are properly checked. If anybody finds mistakes in this book. I welcome whole heartedly for their positive suggestions and obliged.
