All over India, Central Government has announced compulsory entrance exam for joining the Medical course.The supreme court had also put an order for conducting NEET exam all over India. CBSE conducted examination for NEET 2017 for all over India and the results are already announced with the rank list. Last year in Tamilnadu, they selected students for the Medical program based on the +2 marks.

From this year, the Central government announces that Tamilnadu medical admission is also under the control of NEET Examination. Medical Course admission will be based on the ranking provided based on the NEET examination. But Tamilnadu students weren’t prepared and ready for the exam as there is less CBSE curriculum school.
