Medicine is not only a prestigious profession but also a booming and rewarding one. This profession even enjoys the highest degree of respect in the society. For this reason, annually, over 13 lakh class 12 graduates write different medical entrance examinations.
Many changes have occurred in the medical entrance examinations in the recent past. One of the major decisions is merging the state-level medical entrance examinations with the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET).
