The Tamil Nadu Health Department has launched a counselling initiative for students from the State, who have not cleared the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET), the results of which were announced earlier this week.
Health Minister Ma.Subramanian said that of the 1.44 lakh students from Tamil Nadu who took up NEET, over half, 54% have cleared it. “As a next step, we have collated the details of 65,823 students who did not clear the exam and will reach out to them through the State health helplines at the earliest,” he said.
Counsellors from the State Health Helpline at 104 and the TeleMANAS 14416 helpline have been reaching out to students.
