Suggestions to scrap NEET PG exam on table
Providing relief to the students who want to pursue post-graduation, the Union Health Ministry has proposed to scrap the NEET-PG exam and instead final MBBS exam would serve as the entry point for the MD and MS programs. According to the officials, the amendment has been incorporated into the revised draft National Medical Commission (NMC) Bill and will be sent to the cabinet soon. "According to the amendments made in the fresh NMC Bill, entry into the PG programs will be on the basis of the results of the National Exit Test (NEXT), which would be held as a common exam across the country. So the candidates would not have to appear in a separate exam after clearing the MBBS final exam for admission to PG courses," the source explained. In order to obtain a license to practice, students will no longer have to appear for the separate exam however; for admissions in PG program at AIIMS students will have to appear for a separate entrance exam. The source further said that the NEET Super Speciality exam for admissions to DM/MCh courses will continue. According to the official data, every year around 80,000 students take admission into the MBBS courses while 1.5 lakh students appear for the entrance exam for 50,000 seats PG seats.
