Chhatrapati Sambhajiangar: Finally, the admission process for the different health science courses for the academic year began on Saturday for the academic year 2024 25.

It may be noted that the NEET has been in controversy since the declaration of its results on June 4. Lakh of students were angry and agitated over the result of some candidates receiving marks not as per the norms.

Later, some students moved the court. The National Testing Agency (NTA) conducted a re-test on June 23 following the court orders and declared its result recently.

The admission process which was to begin in June was delayed due to controversy. The State Common Entrance Test Cell (SCETCT) which is a competent authority started the admission process for the health science courses today.

The names of the health courses are MBBS, BDS, BAMS, BHMS, BUMS, BPTH, BOTH, BASLP and B (P and O).

The SCETCT said that online registration with all the relevant information and necessary fees is mandatory for applying for admission to health science.
