The AIIMS Paramedical entrance exam is one of the popular exams for admission to paramedical courses in AIIMS Institutes of India. One of the most effective ways to prepare for the AIIMS Paramedical Nursing entrance exam is by practising the AIIMS Paramedical question papers. Using the sample and previous year’s AIIMS paramedical question papers, students can get a good idea of the types of questions, how hard they are, and the overall format of the exam. By working through these papers and checking the solutions, candidates can improve their speed, accuracy, and confidence for the real test.
The AIIMS Paramedical Nursing Exam comprises 90 multiple-choice questions from Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. As there is no in-depth syllabus provided by AIIMS, the previous year's AIIMS Paramedical paper serves as a source to note down key topics and most-asked questions. Practising with solved papers on a regular basis also helps in proper revision and time management during the test.
Students looking for AIIMS Paramedical admission should practice question papers of AIIMS Paramedical to evaluate their study progress by attempting past years’ question papers. The previous year question paper of AIIMS Paramedical exam helps students understand the exam format, the kinds of questions asked, and how tough the actual exam might be.

1. Bicarbonate ion is produced inside:
a) Basophils
b) Erythrocytes
c) Neutrophils
d) Lymphocytes
Answer: (b) Erythrocytes
Explanation: In erythrocytes, which are also known as red blood cells is the cell is where bicarbonate ion production takes place. In the cell, some carbon dioxide binds to haemoglobin, forming carbaminoglobin. The carbonic anhydrase enzyme present in red blood cells quickly converts carbon dioxide and water into bicarbonate and hydrogen ions. So the correct answer is 'Erythrocytes'.
2. Reduction in the pH of blood will:
a) Release bicarbonate ions by the liver
b) Decrease the affinity of haemoglobin with oxygen
c) Reduce the blood supply to the brain
d) Reduce the rate of heartbeat
Answer: (b) Decrease the affinity of haemoglobin with oxygen
Explanation: Reduction in pH of blood causes oxygen haemoglobin dissociation curve to shift to the right, which indicates dissociation of oxygen from haemoglobin. This decreases the affinity of haemoglobin for oxygen.

4. For reaching left side of heart, blood must pass through:
a) Kidneys
c) Lungs
b) Liver
