AHMEDABAD: Though the National Eligibility Entrance Test (NEET) will be held across India exclusively for admission to medical colleges, the students from the state will find it to be another added burden to the string of exams they will have to take for admission to professional courses in the state.
This is because if the students want admission in dental and paramedical courses in Gujarat, they will need to have scores of the local entrance exam GujCET as well.
This effectively means that even if Gujarat adopts NEET from May 2013 and not this year, the students in the future will have to appear for six different exams just to get their HSC (science) scores and the scores of the qualifying entrance tests as well to compete for admissions in professional courses.
