IMPORTANT INFORMATION From the total number of MBBS/BDS seats available in the Government Medical/ Dental Colleges, 15 % of the seats are surrendered to All India Quota and the remaining 85% of seats are allotted to State Quota for academic year of 2017-2018 session. Till 2016-2017 admissions to MBBS and BDS Courses were done through Tamil Nadu Admission in Professional Educational Institutions Act 2006 (T.N. Act 3 of 2007) which was enacted after obtaining the assent of His Excellency The President of India under Article 254(2) of the Constitution of India. As per Section 7 of the said Act “Notwithstanding anything contained in any other law in force, any admission made in violation of the provisions of this Act or the rules made thereunder shall be invalid”. Now due to the amendment made to Medical Council of India Act, 2016 and Dentist Act, 2016 by Government of India, the common eligibility test has been introduced by the Government of India viz. National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET-UG). To protect the policy decision of Tamil Nadu for admission of students based on +2 examination marks in relevant subjects, “Tamil Nadu Admission to MBBS and BDS - 3 - Courses Bill, 20 17” (T.N.L.A., Bill No.7 of 2017 ) was introduced and unanimously passed in the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly on 01.02.2017. Hon’ble Governor of Tamil Nadu has reserved the Bill for the Assent of His Excellency The President of India under Article 254(2) of the Constitution of India on 18.02.2017. The Assent of His Excellency The President of India is awaited. If the Assent for the said Bill is received from His Excellency The President of India, before the date of declaration of merit list then the admission for the MBBS/BDS courses for the year 2017-2018 shall be made on basis of +2/Equivalent Board of Examination marks for the 85% of State Quota seats in Government Medical Colleges and Government Quota seats in Self Financing Private Medical Colleges including the seats surrendered to Government by Rajah Muthiah Medical and Dental College, Annamalai University, Chidambaram. The Management Quota seats in Self Financing Private Medical/ Dental Colleges including NRI Quota shall be filled up on the basis NEET score only. In case the Assent for the said Bill by His Excellency The President of India is not received before the date of declaration of rank list then the admission shall be made on the basis NEET score for the MBBS/BDS courses for the year 2017-2018 for the State Quota seats in Government Medical Colleges and Government Quota seats in Self Financing Private Medical Colleges including the seats surrendered to Government by Rajah Muthiah Medical and Dental College, Annamalai University, Chidambaram and also for the Management Quota seats in Self Financing Private Medical/Dental Colleges including NRI Quota. As per the NEET Information Bulletin issued by the CBSE, the reservation of the seats in Medical/Dental Colleges for respective categories shall be as per applicable laws prevailing in States/Union Territories.

More importantly, the CBSE schools are mostly found in urban areas. Whereas majority of the Government schools are also situated in the rural area. Within the State of Tamil Nadu 88,431 students appeared for the NEET. Out of 88,431 students not more than 4,675 students from CBSE could have appeared i.e. 96% or more have written the 12 th standard examination through State Board whose syllabus, methodology and pattern of examination are entirely different - 4 - from the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE). To ensure equal opportunity to the students of varying boards, normalization was followed till now under the Tamil Nadu Admission in Professional Educational Institutions Act 2006. Since NEET is the basis of admission, to ensure that fair opportunity is given to the candidates from different boards, out of the State Quota seats in Government Medical Colleges and Government Quota seats in Self Financing Private Medical Colleges including the seats surrendered to Government by Rajah Muthiah Medical and Dental College, Annamalai University, Chidambaram, 85% of the seats shall be earmarked to the students who have studied in the Tamil Nadu State Board only with the rest available for the other boards even though on a pro-rata basis 95% or more students appeared in the State Board and only 5% or less appeared in the remaining Boards. This policy of the Government is to facilitate the students from all the parts of the State to get an opportunity to study medicine. Within the State two allocations of admission would be based on the Rule of Reservations as applicable with NEET ranking.
