NEET-PG 2023 cut-off percentile reduced to zero across all the categories

Hyderabad, Sept 21 (Maxim News): The Union Health Minister reduced the qualifying percentile for NEET-PG 2023 to ‘zero’ across all categories.  this move could facilitate aspiring doctors to pursue a post-graduation specialty in medicine. 

the decision means that doctors who appeared for NEET-PG 2023 and in case they have scored zero or received negative marks, are also eligible and can get admissions in PG medical seats offered by private medical colleges.  Reducing the NEET cut-off to zero will effectively ensure that no PG medical seat in private medical colleges will be left over this year. 

It may be recalled that on September 13, the Indian Medical Association, New Delhi wrote a letter to Union Minister of Health and Family Welfare Dr. Mansukh Mandaviya, urging him to intervene and reduce the cut-off percentile of NEEt-PG 2023 to at least 30 percent so that most of the vacant PG seats are filled in clinical and non-clinical branches of medicine. 

As a result of high cut-off scores, aspiring medical students will not only be prevented from entering PG medicine but will also be compelled to travel overseas to pursue their dream of post-graduation, further depleting the medical manpower pool in India, the IMA, New Delhi in the letter said. 

Public health officials in Hyderabad and senior faculty familiar with NEET-PG 2023 said that the zero percentile cut-off will ensure the sizable number of PG medical seats lying vacant in private medical colleges can be filled. 

“PG medical seats in private medical colleges have an exorbitant fee structure.  Due to zero percentile, now anybody who has the ability to afford can pursue PG.  (Maxim News)
