KANPUR: The Supreme Court's decision to re-conduct All India Pre-Medical Test (AIPMT) has given a jolt to the city's medical aspirants. The order evoked mixed reactions from the students.
While some students feel that re-examination may affect their performance and grades, others welcomed the apex court's judgment whole-heartedly. The Supreme Court (SC) has directed Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) to hold the examination again within four weeks.
Just as the news about the court's decision on AIPMT came out, the deserted roads of Kakadeo coaching mandi became abuzz with students pouring in their coaching institutions. It was apparently a perplexed situation for the young medical aspirants. "I gave my 100 per cent in the first attempt that was held recently. That time I was mentally prepared for the exam, but now appearing for the exam again seems to be a painful thing. The moment I heard the news, I felt pressurised. Government should take strict action against the solvers and their gang as a whole. Many of us have to suffer now just because of them," lamented Swarit, a medical aspirant.
Similar words were echoed by another student, who on the condition of anonymity said, "Temperament is required for giving these competitive exams. It is not a easy thing to compete for very few MBBS seats all over the country. As I belong to general category, so I will not get the benefit of reservation. Now, re appearing for the exam would be a bit difficult. We were relaxed after the exam and have already lost the link. There will be a need to build the whole tempo again for the 100 per cent performance. But, yes, I respect the SC's order," the student said.
The exam results, which were to be declared by the CBSE on June 5, were postponed till June 10 at the centre because some irregularities were found in it. Over 6 lakh students from all over the country had appeared for the examination.
Several students from the city welcomed the court's judgment with open arms. "Paper was leaked on a large scale. There could have been thousands of beneficiaries from the same. I am glad that the SC took the decision in favour of innocent aspirants. Re-test is the best solution as genuine candidates will be selected," said Pradeep Verma.
Rupabhra Singh, another medical students said, "Scrapping AIPMT does make sense, as using unfair means in exams can only hamper quality of doctors. The standard of examination process has dropped drastically in the country. Every year Munna Bhai's are caught. Government should take rapid and strict action against culprits. It is a matter of future of lakhs of students," the students said.
Meanwhile, SP Singh, who runs a medical coaching in the city, said that all his students have appreciated the SC's decision to re-conduct the exam. He suggested that a common medical entrance exam should be conducted in the country for all medical colleges.
"Conducting a common entrance exam will not only save time of the students, but also energy and money of the people involved in it. All my students have pledged to prepare themselves better to crack the all India exam. One month's time is sufficient to revise the course. It is a second chance for those who could not perform in the recently held exam," he said
