Chennai: Nearly 77% of the undergraduate medical seats under the NRI quota have remained vacant after the first round of online medical counselling for 2021 admissions. The state selection committee, which has extended counselling for the category, has announced that if these seats continue to remain vacant until Monday, they will be considered as “lapsed seats” and moved to the general pool.

When the counselling opened, 17 self-financing colleges asked for 15% of the seats to be set aside for NRI admissions, for which the fee committee has permitted college managements to charge ₹23.50 lakh as an annual fee. “But even when we opened the counselling there were just 250 applications for the 398 seats. When the process began, 106 candidates locked choices and 92 took the seats,” said selection committee secretary Dr P Vasanthamani.

The committee then decided to extend the first round of counselling for the category and the deadline for registration ended by noon on Friday. Candidates have been asked to lock choices by 10pm on Saturday. “We will be putting out the results by Saturday and students will be given time to join colleges until Monday,” she said.

Seats that continue to remain vacant after Monday will be considered ‘lapsed NRI seats’ and added back into the management quota matrix. Students from the general category in the management rank list can apply for the seats. The fee for lapsed seats will be ₹20.3 lakh. The fee committee has allowed colleges to charge to take ₹12.5 lakh for students allotted under management quota and ₹3.8 to ₹4 lakh for students allotted under government quota.

Students say they will be happy to have at least 300 more seats on the seat matrix. “These seats will cost us more than management quota seats, but it is still lesser than deemed universities, which is the only other option we are left with,” he said.

The admissions to deemed universities, which charge around ₹25lakh a year, are done by the medical counselling committee of the Directorate General of Health Services.

Chennai: The Supreme Court's order on Friday allowing resumption of NEET-PG and NEET-UG counselling for all India quota seats by following 27% quota for other backward class (OBC) and 10% quota for economically weaker sections (EWS) has removed the bottleneck for conducting MBBS/BDS admissions in Tamil Nadu.

The counselling for the medical seats under the state quota is likely to begin in two weeks, according to officials from the directorate of medical education.

The order brings the anxious wait of more than 40,000 medical aspirants for the last two months to an end. "After the publication of first-round counselling results for All India Quota (AIQ) seats by the Medical Counselling Commit- tee (MCC) of Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS), we will start MBBS/ BDS counselling in Tamil Nadu. It will take12 to 15 days. We will start our counselling tentatively at the end of the third week or beginning of the fourth week of January," said P Vasanthamani, secretary of the Selection Committee, Directorate of Medical Education.

Citing the pending case regarding EWS quota in PG med- ical admissions in the apex court, the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) of Directorate General of Health Services postponed MBBS counselling for AIQ seats as well.

As per the usual practice, TN has been conducting medical admission after the first round of counselling for seats under AIQ is over. "It will give toppers an opportunity to choose seats from AIQ. So, it will give more seats to Tamil Nadu students," officials said.

As many as 40,288 students have applied to the counselling for MBBS/BDS admissions which is 1000 more compared to the previous year. The last date for submitting online applications ended on January 7.

"While 25,511 students applied for government quota seats, 14,777 students have applied for seats under management quota this year," Vasanthamani added.

Last year, 39,223 applications were received for government and management quota seats. This year, 11 new government medical colleges will add 1,450 seats while Government Coimbatore Medical College got permission to add 50 additional seats. Thirty-seven government medical colleges will offer 5,125 seats. There will be 4,356 seats available for state quota counselling after allocating15% of seats for AIQ.

Meanwhile, the apex court, while passing the judgment, stated that the validity of the criteria determined by the committee would prospectively be subject to its final order. The court said it will hear the matter in detail in the third week of March.

Chennai:

With the MBBS and BDS counselling delayed by more than two months, medical aspirants are anxious that their wait to enter medical colleges may get even longer with the spurt of Covid-19 cases. Some candidates with high scores in NEET 2021 have already joined other courses while other toppers are worried about the possibility of having to study along with their juniors due to the extraordinary delay in medical admissions this year due to pending court cases and the pandemic.

Around 42,000 students have registered online for MBBS, BDS 2021-22 counselling while 33,000 students have sent their applications so far for the medical admissions. The last date for registering online is January 7. Ranjitha from Mylapore who scored above 600 marks in NEET 2021, has joined Anna University as a back-up plan. "Now, we are about to complete the first semester and reach the stage of assessment. It adds an extra-pressure to decide whether to continue in engineering or to join MBBS. There are many students like me," she said.

Students also worried about rushing through the first-year syllabus of MBBS due to the delay in the counselling. Anirudh, who has secured more than 650 marks in NEET 2021, said there was no information about the counselling though it had been four months since the NEET exam was held. "If the counselling starts now, we can plan accordingly," he said.

Dharani, a topper among government school students in NEET 2021, has already lost several months. "My brother is in Class XII. It seems both of us will start going to college at the same time," she said.

PV Ramachandran, course coordinator for medical programmes, FIITJEE, Chennai, said students who had done very well in NEET were now under stress due to delay in medical counselling. "Due to uncertainty, many parents are pressuring students to join other courses as a back-up," he said.

The National Medical Commission has postponed the counselling for all-India quota till the case regarding following EWS quota for All India  quota (AIQ) seats is decided by the Supreme Court. "We normally start counselling after the first round of counselling for AIQ seats is completed. This will give toppers an opportunity to choose seats from AIQ. So, it will give more seats to Tamil Nadu students," an official said.

The second round of counselling for MBBS and BDS admissions began after initial hiccups on Monday with admissions for government school students.

The counselling was delayed till noon as the selection committee sought legal clarifications over an order passed by the Madras high court in the allotment of seats to three government school students under the 7.5% quota. “These students had moved the court saying they turned down their allotment in self-financing medical colleges as they were not aware the state’s announcement sponsoring medical education came late. The court had asked us to give priority to these students during counselling. We sought certain clarifications from legal experts before going ahead with the counselling,” said director of medical education Dr R Narayanababu.

On Tuesday, when the counselling begins, there will be 182 MBBS seats in government colleges, 206 seats in selffinancing medical colleges, 68 BDS seats in government colleges, and 965 seats in self-financing dental colleges.

When the counselling began, the selection committee, which initially displayed 41 seats under the 7.5% quota, added six more by adding Muthukumaran Medical College to the seat matrix. This year, at least 132 MBBS seats that were surrendered to the central government were returned to the Tamil Nadu after they remained vacant after two rounds of centralised online counselling. The centre also returned 28 BDS seats to the state government. Muthukumaran Medical College, which was not a part of the seat matrix given by the TN Dr MGR Medical University, was added to the seat matrix after orders from the high court. In addition, the100 additional seats given to PSG and16 of the 25 additional seats given to ESIC Medical College by the National Medical Commission were also added to the seat matrix.
