Dear student

Yes, a standard height is set for the army medical corps  . A height of minimum  157.5 cm  is  relaxable to 1.52 cm in case of Gorkhas, Assamese, Garhwalis etc.

And there are several more physical examinations for that. For more information please go through the official site

At the same time, for Gorkhas and individuals belonging to hills of North Eastern region of India, Garhwali and Kumaon, the minimum acceptable height will be 5 cms less. Hope this helps!
