The latest regulations laid down by MCI for NEET – 2018 prescribes that “The Indian Citizens / Overseas citizens of India intending to obtain a primary medical qualification from any medical institution outside India, on or after May 2018, shall mandatorily qualify the NEET for admission to MBBS course abroad”
After receipt of Grievances from students who have already gone abroad, the Ministry of health released a public notice on 22nd February 2017 informing that “The decision will be implemented prospectively ie from May-2018. Thus students who have already taken admission under current regulations to pursue primary medical course by taking Eligibility Certificate from MCI are exempted from qualifying NEET”
MCI considers Pre-Medical (BS Biology or AB psychology) as not part of Medicine. As per the information secured via RTI act dated 21st September 2016 “As per the information received from the authorities concerned in the Philippines, the BS biology course is a pre requisite requirement for admission in Doctor of Medicine course at various universities in Philippines and not a part of medical course. Therefore, a candidate may apply for Eligibility Certificate at the time of joining medical course in a medical university, Philippines only after completion of the BS Biology Course”
Where as per the MCI notification as published in Part III, section 4 of the Gazette of India, Extra-ordinary issue dated the 18th February, 2002, Eligibility Requirements’ for taking admission in an undergraduate medical course in a foreign Medical Institution Regulations, 2002 state “ An Indian citizen who is desirous of joining an undergraduate medical course in any foreign medical institution on or after 15th March 2002 shall approach the council for issue of an Eligibility Certificate for this purpose”
As the students reason to take up Bs Biology / AB psychology is his desire to proceed to Medicine afterward, MCI shall be asked to release the eligibility certificate even for the students taking up Pre-Medicine upon meeting the current eligibility criteria through the court of Law.
The current eligibility criteria to apply for Eligibility certificate before May 2018 the candidate fulfilling the age criterion and minimum qualifying marks criteria in physics, chemistry, Biology and English.
