The announcement of merit list for admission to MBBS/BDS courses through single-window counselling could get delayed, as revaluation results for the Class XII examination conducted by State Board have not yet been released.
The Directorate of Medical Education had scheduled the release of rank list on Friday, but is still awaiting the revaluation results. “We will know by Wednesday when the results would be out,” an official said.
A selection committee official said, “It would be difficult to release the rank list on Friday. We will need at least a day or two between random number and the rank list. Once we get the re-totalling and revaluation results, we will start the process of generating random numbers. We will also need a day between the announcement of results and the generation of the random number.”
The DME has to follow the Supreme Court orders that the first phase of medical counselling be held between June 19 and 25, the official added.
Speaking on the revaluation, an official from the School Education Department said they were still in the process of compiling the list. “We will do our best to get it done by then, but the results are unlikely to be announced in the next two or three days,” the official said.
For the medical entrance, marks in Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Zoology and Botany are taken into consideration to decide the cut-off marks. Marks in mathematics are used for fixing random numbers.
According to sources, maximum number of students applied for revaluation in Physics and Mathematics this year.
Many students are expecting a large difference in their marks after re-totalling and revaluation. “There is an entire page with seven marks that they have not considered in the totalling of my Physics paper. Many of my friends, too, expect at least three or four marks extra in the subjects they applied for,” a student said.
In the case of engineering, the random number will be generated for all candidates who had applied irrespective of whether they are eligible or not, so the delay in re-totalling or revaluation results will not affect the counselling, an official from Tamil Nadu Engineering Admissions said.
