Honest Review by Medical Student

I got my admission as government nominee under central pool quota of Ministry of Home Affairs. My father is serving in CISF ( paramilitary) so i was eligible for this quota. A number of seats are reserved from various medical colleges throughout India for the wards of military and paramilitary personals. A special Central pool quota counseling in held in Delhi different from the All India Counseling. Seats are alloted on the basis of your category ( wards of defense personal killed in action, disabled in action, died while in service, receipt of gallantry awards, wards of ex servicemen) and the marks obtained in NEET. Seat is allotted to you in the counseling day and then allotment letter is to be recieved from the Ministry of Home Affairs after 5-7 days from the day of counseling. Then students have to report at their respective allotted colleges with the allotment letter and complete the further admission process.
