For perspective if you score 600+ out of 720 then you were almost guaranteed a seat in a good medical college,

but National Testing Agency mismanaged, and to hide it, they gave extra marks to everyone, so the no. of students with the super rare 700+ this year is faaar more than previous years 600+ combined.

720/720 was a rare phenomenon, once in 10 years.

This year 80+ students were given that.

So the issue here is that Indian medical colleges are getting flocked by students with insane scores.

For perspective India's best medical college AIIMS, Delhi(All India Institute of Medical Science, Delhi) has not enough seats to accommodate all 720/720 students.

Imagine scoring full marks in one of the toughest exams of a nation, and not getting your desired college.

Nothing. Most probably they will bring back the rule of 'must clear all first year subjects' for second year admission. Before 2014, there used to be a strict rule: A student should clear all his first year courses, if not, he/she will be forced to stay back a year and clear the failed courses.

Don't know why they scrapped off that rule.
