7.5 per cent quota: Just one student gets MBBS seat in Tiruchy, ‘crash course' blamed
According to data accessed by TNIE, among the 185 candidates from government schools in the district who appeared for NEET this year, only 22 crossed the NEET eligibility threshold score of 113. All the 185 underwent NEET coaching at the government-run centres located in Manapparai, Musiri, Manachanallur and Srirangam, one of whom was Koushika. Bemoaning this year's performance of students at government-run centres, educationists blamed the commencement of NEET coaching only after the Class 12 board exams for the situation. "To expect NEET-level success from a month's crash course after board exams is unrealistic," said S Sivakumar, an educationist. "We must begin structured coaching from June itself, with subject-specific faculty, regular assessments, and classes integrated into the school calendar."

State panel to check feasibility of MHT-CET twice a yr
Mumbai: The state govt has set up a committee to recommend reforms in the MHT-CET, including the feasibility of holding the test twice a year, with probability of having the first one in January. The MHT-CET for admissions to engineering, pharmacy and agricultural courses, is currently held in April and May over a period of 15 days. Though with the lack of adequate infrastructure available to take up the massive exercise twice a year, the committee could look at other solutions for the convenience of students. TOI had earlier reported about the govt's keenness to hold CETs twice a year, giving them an opportunity to improve their scores. A govt representative said another problem with holding the CET in April and a delayed start for the centralised admission process (CAP), is that most private universities complete their admission process by then. "For holding MHT-CET in Jan, the govt will have to ensure there are no clashes with other entrance exams. Also, if govt uses aided institutions to hold the exams, those should be available for the CETs. The committee will look into the availability of exam centres as well as clashes with other exams," said the official. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Wake Up Refreshed with Those You Love ResMed Buy Now Undo You Can Also Check: Mumbai AQI | Weather in Mumbai | Bank Holidays in Mumbai | Public Holidays in Mumbai Recently, a team of senior officials visited Karnataka to understand their CET processes.
