The National Medical Council has issued a major announcement regarding the age limit for writing the NEED Entrance Examination to enroll in the Bachelor of Medicine (MBBS). To enrol in the MBBS medical course, the NEED entrance exam is mandatory. Despite strong opposition from states including tamil Nadu, the National Medical Council has issued another important announcement regarding this examination.
The Commission has aggressively announced that there is no longer an age ceiling for writing the NEET exam. The announcement by the Commission was welcomed by the Federation of Resident Physicians Associations. ‘The maximum age limit to write the NEET exam was set at 25-. It is currently deleted. The move by the National Medical Council is welcome. With the country already having a shortage of doctors, the move will give more people the opportunity to study medicine. The federation hopes to produce more doctors in the country.
Most of the questions in the NEET exam are asked right from the CBSE syllabus. Thus students who have studied in the state curriculum are subjected to much inconvenience. In addition, the question paper for the NEED examination is prepared based on the hindi language beyond the state syllabus.
They are depriving the state of its right to education in the name of providing an international curriculum. It is not right to bring entrance from basic education. We do not even accept state-level entrance exams. All parties, academics and students in tamil Nadu are speaking out against NEET. india is a country of unity in diversity. A single education across the country will not work.
