Seat Matrix for Private Medical Colleges in Tamil Nadu

In the last article, we gave you the seat matrix for deemed universities/ central universities. Following this article, I got a few requests to write an article on the seat matrix for private colleges in Tamil Nadu. The last article was easy as the seat matrix for deemed universities/ central universities was provided by Medical Counseling Committee; all I have to do was to present in an easy-to-read format. However, the seat matrix for private colleges in Tamil Nadu is yet to be released by Tamil Nadu government.

Seat Matrix for Private Colleges in Tamil Nadu

I have to collect information from MCI information desk. I compared it with the colleges listed in Tamil Nadu prospectus for 2017-18 admission. I have to make some assumptions where clear information is not available, particularly on the distribution of seats between merit and management quota.

I have assumed that seats in all private colleges are split into 65% merit quota seats and 35% management quota seats. I have also assumed that CMC Vellore will not surrender any seats to state quota and all their 100 seats will be considered as management quota seats. The 100 seats of ESIC Medical College, KK Nagar will be split as 65 merit quota seats, 20 seats for Insured Persons (IP) quota and 15 seats for all India quota.


As you can see, there are 1550 seats under self-financing colleges in Tamil Nadu for the admission year 2017-18. Out of this, 921 seats are reserved for government quota and will be charged about 2.85 lacs to 4 lacs per annum (ESIC medical college, KK Nagar charges only INR 24,000 per year).

There are about 594 seats under management quota in self-financing colleges. Of these, 459 seats will be available at an annual fees of INR 12.5 lacs. 100 seats in Christian Medical College (CMC) Vellore will be available at about INR 23000 per year. 35 seats in IRT Perundurai will be available only to wards of Transport Corporation Employees.

Disclaimer

The information presented here are collected from the web sites of MCI, respective self-financing colleges and prospectus of Tamil Nadu medical admission. We have made few assumptions. We advise the candidates to use the information here as a guidance and do their due diligent check. They are also advised to check the relevant Authorities for regular updates as this information may not be updated regularly.

The remarks regarding recognition for Dhanalakshmi Srinivasan Medical College and Sri Muthukumaran Medical College are as displayed in MCI web site and are correct at the time of posting this article.

Expected Cut-off for Tamil Nadu MBBS admission 2017

I am getting lots of questions on the expected cut-off for Tamil Nadu MBBS admission 2017. As you know, Supreme Court has made it clear that admissions to MBBS/ BDS can happen only with NEET marks as the criteria. Accepting the reality, Tamil Nadu government has released two provisional merit lists; one for merit quota seats (government colleges and self-financing colleges) and another one for management quota seats. We have, in total, 2445 2652 seats available in government medical colleges under Tamil Nadu state quota. There is an increase of about 127 seats this year, thanks to timely opening of a medical college in Pudukottai. We also have about 57 seats reverted (some reports put the number at 102) back to the state from All India Quota counselling unfilled seats. Expected Cut-off for Tamil Nadu MBBS admission 2017 I did a quick check and few interesting facts. I have not considered the following in my estimation of cut-off ranks: (1) Seats that are taken by special...

Is NEET the only yardstick to rank candidates?

Guest article written by Dr. Shrikanth, Vellore. Fellow citizens, Let us not become emotional about self-proclaimed opinions regarding better or poorer standards in the state board or central board schools, state-level entrance exams versus national-level entrance exams (NEET), English medium education versus regional languages, city versus town, town versus rural, .. We are now facing the issue of how to select candidates for medical curriculum. Because the eligible candidates, by nature and law, are from different boards, different medium of instruction, different states and different socio-economic backgrounds,it becomes necessary to have a common yardstick to merit rank among them for further selection. Common yardstick to merit rank There are two well-known and recognized methods for this purpose. Leave alone the personal interview methods to assess and measure the merit cum attitude/aptitude. They are: Objective type of entrance exams - erstwhile CETs of different states...
