A mixed bag for Madurai docs in Neet PG exam

Madurai: Two days after the results of the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test Post Graduate (Neet PG) exams were declared, major medical entrance coaching centres in the city said that though the performance of candidates from Tamil Nadu was satisfactory with quite a few securing top ranks in the All India Rankings, the results were not good as last year’s results.

“We are yet to sort out the complete results and confirm our toppers. Tamil Nadu has got the maximum pass percentage at 55 per cent. However, when it comes to top ranks, the number of top ranks from Tamil Nadu in the top 1000, which is usually around 200 is sadly less than 100 this time around,” said Dr Arun Kumar, co-ordinator of a Neet PG coaching centre. A few students from Madurai Medical College have secured top 1000 ranks this year.

The co-ordinator of another Neet PG coaching centre, Tamil Selvam, said that many students from Madurai and Tamil Nadu have scored between 600-900 marks. “A score above 650 is likely to guarantee that students get admission in colleges within Tamil Nadu itself,” he said. The cut-off scores for this year for General Category, SC/ST/OBC, and UR-PWD are 366, 319 and 342 respectively. The individual score card of the candidates who appeared for Neet PG exam 2020 can be downloaded from the website https://nbe.edu.in by Monday.
