Will Jharkhand conduct state Medical entrance exam from 2015?



UPDATE: Jharkhand will conduct its own state Medical entrance examination in 2015. It is now not a member of AIPMT. Read this article to know exact reason. (Also Read: How to Fill Application Form of JCECE 2015?)

After first round of counselling for MBBS course several Medical seats under state quota for ST (Scheduled Tribe) category candidates remained vacant in Jharkhand. JCECEB conducted counselling in the state based on AIPMT 2014 result. The number of ST candidates from Jharkhand qualifying in AIPMT was very less this year.
Hence majority of reserved Medical seats for ST candidates remained vacant in the state. Will Jharkhand conduct state Medical entrance exam from 2015? Many medical aspirants have started asking this question now. But the state government has not said anything on this matter yet.




After the dismissal of NEET, CBSE had requested all Indian states to become member of AIPMT. Some states accepted this proposal and Jharkhand was one of those states. Last year JCECEB and state government declared that admission in different Medical Colleges of Jharkhand will be done based on AIPMT result. JCECEB conducts different competitive examinations in the state. Jharkhand government announced that based on the result of AIPMT 2014, JCECEB will only conduct counselling and fill MBBS seats in different Medical Colleges of state.


In three Medical Colleges of Jharkhand i.e. RIMS of Ranchi, MGM Medical College of Jamshedpur and PMCH of Dhanbad 76 MBBS seats were available for the ST category candidates. But JCECEB managed to fill only 16 Medical seats during first counselling while 60 seats remained vacant. ST candidates must get 40% marks in AIPMT in order to qualify in the Medical entrance exam. Due to lack of eligible ST candidates majority of Medical seats remained vacant after first round of counselling.

Medical Colleges
Seats for ST Candidates before 1st round of Counselling
Vacant Medical Seats for ST candidates after 1st round of Counselling
RIMS (Ranchi)
            32
                      16
MGM (Jamshedpur)
            22
                      22
PMCH (Dhanbad)
            22
                      22
        Total
           (76)
                     (60)
 

Before 2013 JCECEB (Jharkhand Combined Entrance Competitive Examination Board) used to conduct Medical entrance exam in Jharkhand. Now after looking at the number of vacant seats in different Medical Colleges, state government may decide to rollback its decision of becoming member of AIPMT. In that scenario, Jharkhand will conduct state Medical entrance exam from 2015. Neither JCECEB nor state government has uttered anything on this issue but students must start preparing themselves for both AIPMT and state Medical entrance exam.
