AIPMST (Secondary) is one of the premier medical entrance scholarship examinations in the country. It supports qualified medical aspirants to pursue an education in MBBS and BDS courses. AIPMST (Secondary) examination provides a platform of support to all MBBS/BDS aspirants by granting them a scholarship on qualifying it to pursue medical education. It is also one of the most popular scholarship examinations among medical students in the country. It is purely a merit-based examination. It is conducted on the national level every year. Scholarship examination has been conducted since 2012.

Though AIPMST is beneficial for all medical students, it is, especially, very helpful to all those deserving medical students who come from the weak economic background. The initiative behind the national level merit scholarship scheme is to provide financial assistance to all meritorious and deserving medical students to realize their "dream of pursuing medical education."
