The All India Postgraduate Medical Entrance Test (AIPGME) is likely to be conducted online in December 2013 after following paper-pencil format for years.
The examination, which is conducted for admission to all India 50 per cent quota, will probably be conducted by National Board of Examination (NBE).
The All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) is reluctant to conduct the exam despite a Supreme Court verdict which had stated that AIIMS will be holding the exam.
The All India Postgraduate Medical Entrance Test (AIPGME) was supposed to have been replaced by NEET-PG.
However, the Supreme Court on July 18 had stated that holding one entrance exam for medicine, dentistry and PG medical courses was not possible.
In a majority 2-1 verdict, the SC held that the National Eligibility-cum Entrance Test (NEET) violated the rights of state and private institutions. Hence, it quashed the Medical Council of India’s (MCI) notification about holding a common entrance test for admission to MBBS, BDS and post-graduate courses in all medical colleges.
Meanwhile, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) will continue to hold the undergraduate exam for 15 per cent of UG seats.
