Thousands of students across the country took the re-exam of the All India Pre-Medical/Pre-Dental Entrance Test (AIPMT) on July 25, 2015 amid tight security measures like hair pat downs, strict dress code, etc.

The stringent security measures were implemented by the conducting body, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), to ensure that students do not cheat in the re-test.

The AIPMT 2015 entrance exam for admission in the most prestigious and state-run medical schools in the country was originally held on May 3, 2015.

However, the results of the exam were scrapped by the Supreme Court following reports of massive irregularities.

Aspirants, therefore, had to appear for the AIPMT for the second time this year at various centres across the country.

Students who took the re-exam had a mixed response to the questions when compared to the paper they took on May 3, 2015.

About 40,000 candidates, who appeared for the test at 67 centres across the city of Lucknow, said the chemistry paper was tough.

"Chemistry particularly was tough than the last time. However, I felt biology was easier," said Kartikeya Khanna, who took the exam at DPS near the Post Graduate Institute.

Another candidate, named Aditya, agreed that the chemistry questions were difficult as compared to the physics questions.

There was a mixed response in Ajmer. Some described the questions as tough, some said they were simpler and yet others thought they were of the same level as the last time.
