List of medical and dental colleges where seats may be available for allotment after the undergraduate entrance test for admissions into MBBS programs i.e., NEET UG (National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test for Under Graduates)

List of medical colleges under NEET in Rajasthan

List of medical colleges under NEET in Himachal Pradesh

List of medical colleges under NEET in Chhattisgarh

List of medical colleges under NEET in Chandigarh

List of medical colleges under NEET in Assam

List of medical colleges under NEET in Haryana

List of medical colleges under NEET in Gujarat

List of medical colleges under NEET in Bihar

National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test for Under Graduates

NEET Objective:

To enhance the quality and standards of medical education and training in India, MCI (Medical Council of India) - the regulatory body has taken a needy step to standardize graduate medical education. In a nutshell it is a concrete step for the implementation of undergraduate and postgraduate medical education in India through a single window common entrance examination with uniform standards. Thus a new roadmap has been evolved for medical education in India with restructuring (Changing the existing curriculum) of undergraduate medical course. This changed scenario ensures greater prospect, optimized learning opportunities for future medicos.

NEET - UG - A single window system for admissions in MBBS

Now there is no inconvenience and confusion of appearing in multiple entrance examinations and counselling.

We all know the Medical Council of India and the Health Ministry have approved that there will be only one common entrance test for over 40,000 MBBS seats in all government and medical colleges in the country from 2011, offered by 271medical colleges, 138 government-run and 133 under private management.

As per the new admission protocol, there will be a single qualifying exam in which all students wishing to join medical courses must attend. Students have to apply separately to the colleges they wish to study in the order of their preference. However the admission will be strictly made out of the scores they obtain in the Common admission test. So you have to score high if you wish to study at the college of their choice.

NEET Advantages:

1. NEET UG is a single window common entrance examination (NEET MBBS)

2. Common syllabus throughout the country for entrance examination

3. MCQ pattern of questions (single response) would be followed for MBBS entrance

4. Obviously there is less stress on students as there is only one national entrance examination. Consequently medical aspirants need not to appear for several entrance examinations, one for each institute or state.

5. Undoubtedly it will save student's cost of attempting different medical entrance examination.

6. It ensures equal opportunities for rural and financially weaker section of deserving aspirants

7. Greater uniformity and convenient for all candidates across the country

8. Avoids malpractices, and saves resources as well

9. Online Conduction of Examinations (from 2013)

10. More importantly reservation of seats as applicable to the states is intact.

11. A student is sure to thrive with multiple career opportunities after his/her MBBs.
