Your child has cleared the written exam. You are happy. The family is celebrating.
Wait the journey is not over yet. There is one step that can end everything and that is the medical test.
Every year many students pass the written exam. Fail the medical test and they lose their seat. Their dream breaks at the step.
The reason is that 90% of candidates never prepare for the test. They think it is a simple check-up but it is not.
At Sainik School Coaching we have seen this happen times. That is why we train our students for all three stages. The written exam, the interview and the medical test. We do not leave anything to chance.
This post tells you exactly what happens in the test what they check what can get you rejected and how to prepare for it starting today.
Why is the Medical Test So Important?
Sainik Schools are schools they train students for a career in the Indian Armed Forces. The military needs people who're physically and medically fit.
So the medical test is strict very strict. It is not like a school health check-up it follows medical standards. Even small problems that you never noticed can lead to rejection.
Our expert faculty at Sainik School Coaching always tells parents one thing: "Do not wait for the written result start preparation on day one." This advice alone has saved students from losing their seats.

Mistakes Parents Make
Mistake 1: ignoring the medical test until the written result comes by then it is too late to fix most problems.
Mistake 2: thinking their child is healthy so no preparation is needed many problems like feet, mild colour blindness or low weight go unnoticed.
Mistake 3: not keeping documents ready carry all previous medical records and vaccination cards on the test day.
Mistake 4: not focusing on fitness, a child who plays sports daily has a better chance.
