Maharashtra Medical UG Courses: provisional Seat Matrix Released; Confusion Persists


New Delhi: The Maharashtra Common Entrance Test (CET) Cell has released a tentative seat matrix for the medical undergraduate programmes on its official website. 

However, the release of the seat matrix for Maharashtra medical UG courses has caused uncertainty among candidates and parents, rather than bringing clarity to the number of seats available for admissions due to the certain seats being unclear. 

This year, there are a total of 4,750 seats available in government medical colleges, as per the seat matrix. Also, there are nearly 2,870 seats available in private colleges. However, parents have noticed confusion in those seats. 

The latest reports suggest that Sudha Shenoy, a parent representative, said that the seat matrix includes 100 seats from ACPM Medical college in Dhule. But according to the National Medical Council (NMC), those seats have been withdrawn. 

Whereas, 50 new seats are shown in Terna Medical College, without having clarity on whether these new seats have all the approvals. This is indicating a repeat of what happened in PG admissions which started a while earlier and provokes us to raise doubts, Shenoy said. 

Further, Shenoy said that such mismatch is bound to add to confusion and lead to doubts if these seats will have allotment. 

Earlier, this month, the Maharashtra CET Cell removed almost 400 seats from the total seat matrix for PG admissions at the time of allocation. 

After the first round of seat allocation, candidates had complained that several of the seats that were indicated in the seat matrix had not been assigned. Hours later, the CET Cell issued a notification notifying that 400 seats were excluded owing to awaiting authorization. 

Meanwhile, the Parents and candidates have started bombarding the CET Cell with emails asking for an explanation for the exclusion of seats.
