The NEET stands for National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET). The MCI has already released NEET Notification 2012-13 along with common core syllabus for NEET-UG Entrance Test and invited response from the public before it goes for finalizing the syllabus for Biology, Physics and Chemistry subjects. The MCI is likely to work out similar modalities for NEET - PG and NEET - SS Entrance Examinations also. Following are the details of Number of Seats and Medical Colleges under NEET-UG, exam structure, NEET scheme of examination, syllabus for the entrance test, available seats in various courses, application procedure and also provided info on NEET-PG and NEET-SS exams to be conducted for Medical PG and Super Specialty Admissions respectively:

Out of these 144 colleges are being run by State and Central Governments and the remaining 170 colleges are under private managements. Out of these 170, there are about 50 deemed universities.

Exclusions from NEET - UG: The NEET entrance examination would cover most of the medical colleges in India. The exceptions listed out are AFMC- Armed Forces Medical College, AIIMS- All India Institute of Medical Sciences and Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research (PGIMER- Chandigarh) as these institutions were set up by separate laws and will be out of the purview of NEET- UG.
