Rashtriya Indian Military College Dehradun · 1,325+ Selections · Residential Hostel · Organic Food
Rashtriya Indian Military College (RIMC) Dehradun is not just a school — it is the most prestigious pre-military institution in India, established in 1922 by the British to produce commissioned officers for the Indian Armed Forces. With only 25 seats per term nationwide, qualifying RIMC is a distinction that marks a boy for life.
For boys from Gurdaspur, Pathankot and Batala, RIMC Dehradun represents the ultimate gateway to a military career. Young Star Defence Academy has guided 1,325+ students into RIMC Dehradun — the highest RIMC selection record in Punjab. Our students come from across North India, including hundreds from the Gurdaspur district.
Our main residential campus in Amritsar — just ~70 km from Gurdaspur — provides complete RIMC preparation: structured Mathematics, English and GK coaching, Viva Voce training, medical fitness guidance, and a disciplined daily routine that mirrors the RIMC environment from day one. Students can enroll as residential boarders or attend online classes.
RIMC Mathematics (200 marks) covers Class 6–7 level with advanced problem solving. Our coaching builds deep conceptual understanding, speed and accuracy — the three pillars of RIMC Maths success.
Paper 2 covers English (125 marks — grammar, comprehension, essay) and General Knowledge (75 marks — current affairs, history, geography, science, defence awareness). Daily newspaper reading and structured GK sessions are part of our programme.
The RIMC interview tests personality, confidence, general awareness and knowledge of the Indian Army. We conduct regular mock viva sessions, public speaking practice and personality development workshops.
RIMC has a rigorous medical exam. We prepare students with daily PT, correct posture training, eyesight care guidance and a healthy structured lifestyle — so they arrive at the medical examination fully prepared.
Boys from Gurdaspur, Pathankot and Batala live on campus in our supervised hostel with organic meals, study time, sports and daily PT — exactly replicating the RIMC boarding school lifestyle.
The RIMC entrance exam is held twice a year — June term (exam in March) and December term (exam in September). Written exam: 400 marks. Followed by Viva Voce interview and Medical Examination.
