Medical Council of India (MCI) releases NEET syllabus

Posted On: 07/11/2011      Updated On:
Even as the State government is awaiting response on its request to exclude the State from the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) for admission to MBBS courses across the country, the Medical Council of India (MCI) released the syllabus for the examination on Friday.

A circular posted on the MCI website said that the syllabus has been prepared after review of various State syllabi as well as those prepared by CBSE, NCERT and COBSE. “This is to establish uniformity across the country keeping in view the relevance of different areas in medical education,” it said. However, confusion still prevails whether the State students have to take the EAMCET next year or NEET as there is no official communication from the Central government on State government's request. Parents who called up The Hindu office expressed their displeasure on the government's attitude that had first created confusion by saying that State would follow NEET, and after public outcry, backed out. “Students are tensed and the government should follow the issue on regular basis,” said the parents.

Officials are also unable to explain when the decision is likely to come. “We understand the urgency of students and will follow up the issue for expeditious decision,” an official said. ‘Syllabus prepared after review of State syllabi and those prepared by CBSE, NCERT, COBSE'
Confusion persists as there is no communication from Centre to Stat's request for exclusion
