Medical students aspiring for post-graduate courses will no longer have to appear for an entrance examination, reports The Times of India. The Department of Medical Education and Research has mooted a proposal that students' MBBS marks be considered for admitting them to the master's programme and the decision is likely to be accepted by the state government.

Medical Council of India regulations say students can be admitted to post-graduate courses on the basis of an entrance exam conducted by the central government or the state government or on the basis of the MBBS aggregate if a particular state has one medical university. Maharashtra has 10 government colleges and three civic colleges in Mumbai that offer a host of post-graduate courses. Admission to these colleges is conducted after a post-graduate medical entrance examination.
