No CET for PG Medical Students

Its official now: the Common Entrance Test (CET) for post-graduate medical students will not start from this session. In a meeting on Tuesday, the Union health ministry decided that it would not be “feasible” to conduct the CET for post-graduate medical students from 2012 and decided to go ahead with the CET for under-graduates only from this year. Earlier, the government had decided to conduct the CET for both undergraduates and post graduate medical students from this session (2012).

The All India CET for PG got into limbo with the Medical Council of India (MCI) yet to convince an agency to conduct the exam for them. Earlier, the MCI had approached the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) for holding the exam which expressed its inability due to lack of manpower.
