Students aspiring to get admission in top medical colleges will have to now take a common entrance exam. From the next academic session, aspiring doctors will have to appear for a Common Entrance Test (CET).
As per the latest updates, the Union health ministry and the Medical Council of India (MCI) have reached a consensus to roll out CET for admission to all government, private medical colleges and deemed universities for MBBS course from the 2012-13 academic session.
This historic decision was taken on a meeting held on Monday (July 18) chaired by Union health secretary K Chandramouli. The meeting was also attended by officials of MCI and CBSE.
The modalities of the meeting are being worked upon. There were also talks about bringing institutes like AIIMS under CET’s ambit.
If this decision is implemented then the prestigious AIIMS won’t be able to hold its own undergraduate entrance exam. Speaking to The Times of India, an official said, “The top students can choose to join AIIMS. However, more discussions will be held on this matter. The idea is to have one single medical entrance exam in the country,” an official said.”
There are also talks to review and revise the existing medical curriculum. As per MCI governing body, the medical curriculum of medical colleges will be revised and put up on the website for public comments soon.
The new, common entrance exam will be held for MBBS courses offered by all 271 medical colleges – 138 run by governments and 133 under private management. Approximately, 8-10 lakh students are likely to appear for the maiden CET exam.
This common entrance exam will bring more transparency and uniformity in selection students for medical colleges. At the moment, there are 31,000 MBBS seats for which 17 entrance tests are held.

nothing has been specified by MCI till now..and HOB is only for biology..my next book Biology @ your fingertips is also on biology but covers exactly everything which is asked and could be asked in the exam and it would be released i n December end.
for physics and chemistry, there is no such good book for last minute revision but as a text book, Pradeep in chem and comprehensive in physics are good.

Sir, as far as the news have declared NEET-UG will be held from 2012 itself… So plzz suggest me which mock test papers to solve in order to to crack this test.. What will be the level or type of question paper? Will it be similar to BHU or AIIMS or AIPMT?? N will BHU & AIIMS fill up there MBBS seats on the basis of NEET rank?
neet is not confirmed and neither they have confirmed whether there would be a separate exam for AIIMS or AFMC or BHU…but NEET agar hoga to woh AIPMT and AIIMS k pattern k according hi hoga..just solve AIPMT, AIIMS and BHU solved papers, cram everything given in NCERTs and both my books.
Thank you sir.

Coaching teachers are no wizards. They cannot wave a moron into a genius! They are only there to teach you, to help clear your concepts; and these big coaching institutes have began exploiting students to make money and many times their study material and test series are also irrelevant. If a student is selected, it is because of his own hard work, not because of the coaching institute. So, it does not matter if you belong to a small city. join a local coaching institute where you can clear your concepts. also keep following this website.
for physics:
1. Dont solve numericals from hi-fi books.
2. You need a good local coaching for physics where you can get some personal attention
3. You can try Comprehensive physics..it is a bulky book but will clear your concepts..First try its solved numericals your self and then follow the solution if you are unable to make it. No need to burden your self by solving its unsolved Questions. For practicing Objective Questions, get a good MCQ book.
4. You must try to remember the formula and the correct way of solving question.
5. Although concepts building is necessary, learning the formulas and applying them correctly should be the priority as usually conceptual Questions are not asked in state PMTs and AIPMT. Most of the question here are simple formula based…but it is a fact that many of the students who solve hi-fi books make mistakes while solving these questions. So, beware of errorrs in solving or calculation.
Also I would advice you to refer to my book handbook of biology .It helps you in last minute revision and contains all the important and frequently asked points with 100% strike rate in any medical entrance exam. the book is available in the market. It also contains last minute revision strategy, suggestions and tips for time management in exam.. The book has 126 pages and its MR prize is Rs.100 . .you can buy the book and also tell your frns about it..in case it is not available in your city, ask the book seller to order it from Galgotia Publications and their phn no. is 0120-4235977 . currently handbook of biology is available..you can buy it on flipkart.com and don’t feel shy to promote my book among your frns!

Sir,
do you have any info. about ARMY MEDICAL COLLEGE DELHI CANTT. opening their college for CET seats.
no. the final judgment on college’s future is yet to come.
sir i got 90.2% in 12th class in cbse ,I also appeared for aipmt & mppmt. But i am not get selected in it because i got 10 to 20 marks less. Sir I wanted to become a good doctor,so
can you please suggest that whether i take a drop or not. Also sir i want to inform you that my father is a farmer and i am not able to afford any coaching.And because of that i had never taken any tution till 12th
ohk. so i’m doing my 12th in US and i want to know what would be the admission process for NRI’s? what rank do i need to get admission in good college?
SIR I AM NIHAL STUDYING IN 9 TH CLASS ASPIRING TO BECOME A CARDIOLOGIST TILL NOW I WAS PREPARED FOR EAMCET BUT NOW FOR NEET WHICH COLLEGE SHOULD I CHOOSE (cbse or state or isc) I LIVE IN HYDERABAD AND SUGGEST ME SOME COLLEGES TOO
choose cbse school only for +1 and +2 and I don’t know about the schools to choose in hyderabad
Dear Rahul Sir,
I am currently studying in Gr. 12 in New York and very keen to become a doctor. Pl.let me know what is the date of examination for the CET and is there any quota for NRIs. Will there also be a test for English and General knowledge.
Regards,
Abhilash
No information regarding CET is available right now and there are only few chances that it would start from this year. if any such information comes, I would inform you.
and there is lesser possibility of a test for English and General knowledge.
sir my main goal is always to be a doctor………. and i am doing BSc in S.V.S.D.P.G Batholi Una (H.P)………i scoe 82% marks in +2……
then you must take a drop and start preparing for medical entrances…you can also continue your college and prepare side by side for PMT but I won’t recommend it because firstly you won’t be able to give quality time for ur preparation and secondly life in college may hinder your interest and enthusiasm for entrance preparation. also, I guess, the college is not that much good and you deserve better.
hello sir! lot of confusion going around… is there any assurance that aiims, bhu, jipmer, cmc n other institutes who used 2 have their seperate exms will also merge??
No information so far regarding it..and there is less possibility that NEET would be conducted this year.
want to know about complete syllabus of common test for pmt
As it happened in AIEEE selections for engineering this year,people secured the more than one seats in different colleges and till the end of 3rd counselling, all the seats were shown to be filled in particular colleges but actually the situations was different. Lots of vacant seats were available in those colleges for a particular course. This has really made a big confusion and worries also for the students who did not get through online counselling system. Only on manual counselling of that college has made those aspirants to get admission. If this would be the case in NEET pmt then I must there will be a chaos. What are your views in this case.
My second question is will there be selection on the basis of state merit or on all india rank.
S. Sharma
Both..15% SEATS THROUGH ALL INDIA 15% QUOTA AND REST THROUGH STATE MERIT RANK..THAT IS WHAT I THINK..ALTHOUGH THE PATTERN OF COUNSELLING AND THE EXACT DISTRIBUTION OF SEATS HAS NOT BEEN SPECIFIED YET.
Thanks Rahul.
bt it is said tht state rnk wouldn’t be declared

You should take a drop and prepare by yourself. Coaching teachers are no wizards. They cannot wave a moron into a genius!

what about pmt 2012??
is it also common??
It is not clear yet. no need to worry, your preparation for the entrances has nothing to do with it. There will be no major change in the pattern of examination
i sir i am a maisha singha and i passed my +2 this yr….. i gave 3 enterance exams i.e of H.P.C.P.M.T , AFMC AND bams (H.P) among these i got seat in BHMS by clearing the test…… but i am not in the favour of it…. my teachers guide me to drop the year but i am not in favour with it so that i seek admission in BSc … i am a fresher and now very little about its sir i request u to give me the appropiate suggestions
you are doing BSc in which college with what subjects and you want to pursue career in which line..means as a lecturer in the college or teaching in school or want to do MBA and then work in a company..think about not taking a drop for medical entrance preparation only when you don’t want to be a doctor or you are sure that you won’t be able to get through. also tell me your +2 marks
being from delhi upto what rank will be able to get admission in maulana azad considering the state qouta?(i think state qouta will be implemnted)…
Same as it used to be in the DPMT counseling i.e. upto around 120th rank acc. to your state quota.
that means i have to get a rank around 120 on state level not on all india level
Yes..
total no. of seats which will going to be subjected in NEET for ug.
common entrance exam will be held for MBBS courses offered by all 271 medical colleges – 138 run by governments and 133 under private management for 31,000 MBBS seats ( if private colleges agree to get their seats).
Will karnataka students be elligible for NEET?
Yes..though the state govt. of Karnataka is reluctant right now, but it will have to accept the move once the proposal of NEET is finalised by MCI.
Good
Plez take the aiims also under cet
Yes, according to the current proposal of MCI, AIIMS would also be included in the CET and there would no more be any separate exam for AIIMS.
