Statistics in Medical Admissions in India

The Government of India and the Ministry of Human Resource Development has established the National Testing Agency which conducts and regulates the only nation-wide medical entrance known as National Entrance cum Eligibility Test (NEET). It is led to enrol for all medical degrees (MBBS/BDS) in both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. The NEET examination is based on the NCERT/CBSE board of education. CBSE schools are comparatively expensive in the country.

In 2019, 13 lakhs students attended the 12th board exam in India. But in the year, the number of students who appeared for NEET exam was 14,10,755. This shows that the students who couldn't get pass percentile in the previous NEET exams since 2016 had been repeating the NEET in 2019 too. In 2018, only 7,14,562 students passed in NEET exam, out of 12,69,922 students written the exam. Only 7,97,042 out of 14,10,755 students had secured pass percentile in the 2019 NEET exam which is 56.49 per cent. So almost 44.51% of the medical aspirants had to wait for one more year to appear in the NEET 2020 or to join in some other degree programs only because they couldn't clear the NEET.

In Tamilnadu, 4202 students had joined medical studies in 2019 out of which, 2916 (70%) were old students, i.e., the aspirants of NEET from 2016, 2017 & 2018.

  • As per the MCI registration in India by 2020,
  • Counselling authority in Tamilnadu – Directorate of Medical Education
  • Admission Basis for medical seats in Tamilnadu – National Entrance cum Eligibility Test (NEET)
  • The total number of medical colleges in India – 542
  • The total number of medical colleges in Tamilnadu – 49 medical & 29 dental colleges = 78 colleges
  • The total number of medical seats in India – 80055
  • The total number of medical seats in Tamilnadu – 7400 MBBS & 2873 BDS seats = 10,273 seats

Since the implementation of NEET in the medical admissions, the number of students entering the medical colleges in India has dropped as the percentile of students cracking the NEET exam is very low. Because the total of medical seats available in India is 80055 at 542 medical colleges including both government and private medical institutions, any student secured NEET rank above a limit, say 30,000 will have to pay a massive amount of fees in the private colleges. The fee range in the private medical colleges lies between 4 lakhs to 25 lakhs per annum which is not affordable by everyone. Due to which, the students aspiring in medical education has been flying to foreign lands to pursue medical degrees.

And 1,17,502 students have registered for NEET exam, 2020 in Tamilnadu. Every year, the number of NEET registrations are getting high, and the number of NEET candidates appearing for the exam is always less comparing to the number of registrations. Finally, it's heart-breaking to see the passing percentile of the NEET exam and the number of students enrolling into medical colleges.
