7.5 per cent quota: Just one student gets MBBS seat in Tiruchy, ‘crash course' blamed
TIRUCHY: The number of beneficiaries of the state government's 7.5% horizontal reservation for government school students in medical admissions stands at one in the district this year. Scoring 157 marks in NEET, K Koushika, a disabled student of the Government Model Higher Secondary School in Thuvakudi, secured admission in the Government Kilpauk Medical College, Chennai. Pointing out six students in the district having benefited from the horizontal reservation last year and four the year before, educationists largely blame the free NEET coaching provided by the government-run centres, which was 'shrunk' to a month's crash course this year in the district, for the poor show. According to data accessed by TNIE, among the 185 candidates from government schools in the district who appeared for NEET this year, only 22 crossed the NEET eligibility threshold score of 113. All the 185 underwent NEET coaching at the government-run centres located in Manapparai, Musiri, Manachanallur and Srirangam, one of whom was Koushika. Bemoaning this year's performance of students at government-run centres, educationists blamed the commencement of NEET coaching only after the Class 12 board exams for the situation. "To expect NEET-level success from a month's crash course after board exams is unrealistic," said S Sivakumar, an educationist. "We must begin structured coaching from June itself, with subject-specific faculty, regular assessments, and classes integrated into the school calendar."

Woodcutter's daughter from remote village near Tiruchuli gets into medical college
After two years of unflinching efforts and family support, M. Poomari from remote Pulikurichi near Tiruchuli has secured admission in a private medical college in Chennai Thanks to the Tamil Nadu Government's 7.5% reservation in professional courses for students of Government schools, Poomari and her family was spared of any worries about the expenditure for her higher studies. A studious student since her childhood, she dreamt of becoming a doctor and she took it up as her personal goal. When she entered class 10, the poor family suffered a jolt when Poomari's father, Muthupandi, died due to ill-health. However, her mother Ponnazhagu did not give up and took up firewood cutting to make a living. Ably supported by her aged parents, Vellaichamy, 80, a shepherd and Muniyammal, who is also a firewood cutter, Ponnazhagu kept her daughter's dreams alive. Though Poomari stood first in the school in Plus Two examination with 573 marks, she could not get the required marks in NEET to get an MBBS seat in 2023. Nevertheless, the family pledged jewels to pay for Poomari's NEET coaching for two years, first in Namammal and then for a repeater course at Salem. 'In between, I got enough marks to get into dental course. But, I was not interested and went to repeaters course,' she said. The hard work of all family members, including Poomari, got a much-needed impetus through the 7.5% reservation for Government school students. With 435 marks in NEET, the girl got a seat under Government quota. 'We are now relieved that the Government would take care of all the expenses of my medical course,' said Poomari. Her two younger brothers are also studying in Sethupathi Government Higher Secondary in Tiruchuli. Poomari says she would not stop with just an MBBS degree, but would pursue a post-graduate course.
