What is the latest update regarding CMC Vellore MBBS 2017 admissions,(after the hearing on Feb 9,2018)

Hello,
Here is the latest update on your query regarding CMC Vellore
Hon'ble Supreme Court give the next date of hearing on case of CMC vellore 23 February 2018.
Nothing Much can be said in this regard at present. In next hearing too, SC might give  verdict or just give another date.
The chances of admissions being conducted for the remaining 99 vacant MBBS seats at CMC Vellore for 2017-18 is extremely low. But given that it is the Supreme Court, any verdict may be issued. The most likely possibility at this point would be that the current batch would proceed with one student only and interested candidates will have to appear for and qualify NEET 2018 to apply to CMC for the 2018-19 session irrespective of whether it is the MCC or the college which conducts the counselling. Other unlikely possibilities include candidates being allowed admissions as per a modified session schedule, or perhaps be allowed to use their NEET 2017 score for next years admissions.
Hope it helps you.
Best of luck

T he Supreme Court hearing is now adjourned to February 16, 2018. At this juncture, it looks like the admissions won't be carried out for the first year MBBS despite whatever the Court rules. The best case scenario will be if CMC allows candidates who have completed first year MBBS at other reputed institutions to join from the second year onwards through some separate selection process but the chances of this happening are highly unlikely.

I t would be in your best interest that if you are really keen on getting admissions to CMC Vellore, appear for NEET 2018 and clear it with the best possible marks. CMC Vellore will be holding admissions on the basis of NEET marks only, but the rest of the admission process will be known through the SC verdict.
