With immense dedication and the blessings of Lord Dhanvantari, we take great pride in presenting the second edition of our publication titled "Entrance Guide on Research Methodology, Statistics & Teaching Aptitude." In response to the challenges faced by students preparing for various entrance examinations, we have diligently crafted this comprehensive resource to address their needs.

The journey of exam preparation is often fraught with obstacles, and one common challenge encountered by students is the scarcity of practice questions. Understanding the pivotal role of MCQs in competitive exams, especially in fields like AIAPGET, PG entrance, Ph.D. entrance, CCRAS, Lectureship exams and PSCs, NTET we recognized the necessity for a dedicated resource on research methodology, statistics, and now teaching aptitude. This realization served as the impetus behind the creation of this book.

The MCQs featured in this edition have been meticulously curated by the authors, ensuring accuracy and relevance to the examination patterns. Our primary objective is to cater to the diverse needs of scholars preparing for competitive exams, offering them a comprehensive tool for self-assessment and knowledge enhancement.

While every effort has been made to maintain precision and clarity in the questions and keynotes, we acknowledge the possibility of unintentional errors. We humbly request our readers to provide their valuable feedback and suggestions for further improvement, thereby contributing to the continual enhancement of this text.

I am thrilled to witness the release of the second edition of "Entrance Guide on Research Methodology, Statistics & Teaching Aptitude." This exceptional book, now expanded to include teaching aptitude, continues to stand as an indispensable resource for aspiring researchers in the field of Ayurveda.

With its enriched content comprising a comprehensive collection of multiple-choice questions (MCQs) and termi- nologies, this edition maintains its tradition of offering inno- vative ideas & practical solutions to the challenges faced by young researchers. It serves as a comprehensive tool, nurturing not only a deep understanding of Research Methodology, Statistics and Teaching aptitude but also a keen passion for these subjects.

The addition of teaching aptitude broadens the book's scope, making it relevant to a wider audience encompassing under- graduate (UG), postgraduate (PG) & doctoral (Ph.D.) scholars, as well as academicians and clinicians across diverse institutions. Beyond the confines of academia, it equips readers with the essential skills to excel in competitive exams and excel in real-world research pursuits.

As we embark on this new edition, I am confident that it will surpass the expectations of its readers, further cementing its position as an indispensable resource within the Ayurveda community.
