A.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


     Basis of Presentation


     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared
     in accordance  with  rules established by  the  Securities
     and Exchange  Commission  for  Form  10-Q.   Not  all
     financial disclosures  required to present the financial
     position  and results  of operations in accordance with
     generally accepted accounting  principles are included
     herein.  The  reader  is referred  to the Company's
     Financial Statements included  in
     the  registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K  for  the
     year ended September 30, 1995.  In the opinion of
     management, all accruals  and  adjustments (each of which
     is  of  a  normal recurring nature) necessary for a fair
     presentation  of  the financial  position as of December
     31, 1995 and the  results of  operations  for the three-
     month period then  ended  have been   made.   Significant
     accounting  policies  have  been consistently applied in
     the interim financial statements and the annual financial
     statements.
          Investments
     Effective September  30,  1994, the Company  adopted,  on
               a prospective basis, Statement of
     Financial  Accounting  Standard  No.  115,  "Accounting
     for Certain  Debt and Equity Securities" (SFAS 115) and
     revised its policy for investments.  Investments that may
     be sold as part of the liquidity management of the Company
     or for other factors are classified as available-for-sale
     and are carried at  fair market value.  Unrealized gains
     and losses on  such securities   are  reported  as  a
     separate   component   of stockholders' equity.  Realized
     gains and losses on sales of securities are reported in
     earnings and computed  using  the specific  identified
     cost basis.   As of December 31,  1995, there is no effect
     on the Company's financial statements.
     
     
     Loss per Share

     Net  loss per common share is based on the weighted
     average number  of  common  shares outstanding  during
     the  period. Common  stock  equivalents, including
     options  to  purchase common stock,  are excluded from the
     calculation as they are antidilutive.
     
     Long-lived Assets

      Statement of Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-lived  Assets and for Long-lived
Assets to be Disposed of"  is effective for financial
statements for
     fiscal  years beginning after December 15, 1995.  It is

     the Company's  opinion that the adoption of the statement

     would have no material effect on its Financial Statements.

B.   JOINT VENTURE

     On  October 30, 1995, the Company announced it had
     acquired Alpha  1  Biomedical's interest in Viral
     Technologies,  Inc. ("VTI").  VTI was formed by the two
     companies in 1986.  This transaction gives CEL-SCI 100%
     ownership of VTI.  Under  the terms  of  the  agreement,
     CEL-SCI gave Alpha 1 Biomedicals, Inc.  159,170 shares of
     CEL-SCI common stock as the purchase price  for  net
     assets with a fair value  of  approximately $170,000.
     The  acquisition was  accounted  for  under  the purchase
     method  of  accounting;  and  as  the  acquisition
     represents  primarily  research and development  costs,
     the purchase price was expensed and is included as
     research  and development expense for the three months
     ended December  31, 1995.   The  contract also contains
     provisions allowing  for the  repurchase  of  the shares
     by CEL-SCI  and  limits  the amount of shares that can be
     sold in the open market at  any given  time.
     Effective October 31, 1995, the  Company  has
     consolidated  CEL-SCI's and VTI's financial  statements
     and the consolidated financial statements reflect the
     results of VTI's  operations  since  the date  of
     acquisition.    This results  in  a significant increase
     in patent costs  on  the consolidated  balance  sheet.
     Intercompany  accounts
     are
     eliminated upon consolidation.
C.   CONSTRUCTION OF NEW LABORATORY AND FUNDING
     On January 31, 1994, the Company entered into  a leasing
     agreement with a non-affiliated landlord for 7,800 square feet
     at 4820 Seton Drive, Baltimore, Maryland.
     In the spring of 1994 the commenced construction of the new
     laboratory. The cost of the laboratory buildout and equipment
     was approximately $1,100,000. To fund this laboratory, the
     Company borrowed funds from a bank at a rate of prime plus 2%.
     The
                    outstanding loan balance at December 31, 1995 is

                    $750,418. CEL-SCI CORPORATION

Item 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The  Company has had only limited revenues from  operations
since  its inception in March 1983.  The Company has relied  upon
proceeds realized from the public and private sale of its  Common
Stock and short-term borrowings to meet its funding requirements.
Funds  raised  by  the  Company have been expended  primarily  in
connection with the acquisition of an exclusive worldwide license
to  certain  patented and unpatented proprietary  technology
and know-how relating to the human immunological defense
system,  the funding  of  VTI's  research  and  development
program,   patent applications, the repayment of debt, the
continuation of Companysponsored research and development and
administrative costs,  and the  construction  of  laboratory
facilities.   Inasmuch  as  the Company does not anticipate
realizing significant revenues  until such time as it enters
into licensing arrangements regarding  the technology  and
know-how licensed to it or until  such  time  it receives
permission  to sell its product  (which  could  take  a number
of years), the Company is mostly dependent upon short-term
borrowings  and the proceeds from the sale of its  securities
to meet all of its liquidity and capital resource requirements.

      In  February,  1992, the Company sold  1,035,000  Units
at $15.50  per  Unit in a public offering.  Each unit
consisted  of five  shares  of  Common  Stock and five  Common
Stock  Purchase Warrants.   Ten  Warrants  entitle the  holder
to  purchase  one additional share of Common Stock at a price
of $46.50  per  share prior to February 7, 1997.
      In  June and September, 1995, the Company completed
private offerings whereby it sold a total of 1,150,000 units at
$2.00 per unit.   Each unit consisted of one share of Common
Stock and  one Warrant.   Each  Warrant  entitles the  holder
to  purchase  one additional share of Common Stock at a price
of $3.25 per share at any time prior to June 30, 1997.  The net
proceeds to the Company from   these  offerings,  after  the
payment  of  Sales  Agent's
commissions  and  other  offering  expenses,  were
approximately $2,000,000.   On November 30, 1995 the Company and
the  investors in these Private Offerings agreed to reduce the
exercise price of the  Warrants to $1.60 per share in return for
the commitment  on the part of the investors to exercise 312,500
Warrants ($500,000) prior  to  December 23, 1995 and an
additional  312,500  Warrants ($500,000) prior to January 31,
1996.
Results of Operations
      Interest income during the three months ending December
31, 1995  reflects  interest  accrued on investments.   The
interest income  has declined from the previous year because the
interest income  from  the loans to VTI is eliminated upon
consolidation. Research  and  development  expenses  increased
because  of  the consolidation  of  Cel-Sci  and Viral
Technologies  research  and development expenses. In addition,
the purchase of the second 50% of  VTI  from  Alpha 1 was
expensed as research  and  development cost. (See Note B.)
Before consolidation, Cel-Sci's research  and development costs
decreased by approximately $100,000 due to cost savings
achieved  from  the consolidation  of  research  in  the
Company's new lab.  General and administrative expenses
increased due               to  interest  expense  on  the  note
and  because  of  the
consolidation  of  Cel-Sci  and Viral  Technologies  general
and administrative expenses.

Item 5.  Other Information

In  December,  1995,  Cel-Sci's subsidiary,  Viral
Technologies, (VTI) began phase I human testing in HIV-positive
individuals  in a clinical trial in California.  The trial will
involve injecting 22 individuals with CD4 counts between 50 and
600 with VTI's  HGP30 HIV immunogen in a series of three
injections over a period of six months.


On January 4, 1996, the Company announced that it had acquired
a new patented medical technology which directs the body to
chose a specific  immune  response.  This new T-cell  Modulation
Process using  "heteroconjugates" was acquired from  CELL  MED,
Inc.  of Columbia, Maryland.
