A 49-year-old physiotherapist and her daughter from Tamil Nadu passed the NEET examinations together in a moment made possible by perseverance. The girl has not yet begun her medical career, even though the mothers were able to acquire a spot at the government medical college near their home district.
Amuthavalli Manivannan chose to take the tests herself after witnessing her daughter’s perseverance in studying for the national level exam. She was inspired by her kid even though she thought the curriculum was extremely difficult and completely different from what she had learned in school.
Manivannan claimed that watching her daughter get ready for NEET renewed her ambition. She served as my biggest source of motivation. I studied for the test using her books that I borrowed,” she told the PTI news agency. In the meantime, her daughter, M Samyuktha, a CBSE student, was also enrolled in coaching sessions and sent her mother literature that aided in her exam success. When Samyuktha expressed her desire to work with someone to update her curriculum, her mother volunteered to help because her father, a lawyer by trade, was uninterested.
“My mother was open because she had a medical background,” Samyuktha stated. When the Tamil Nadu medical admissions counseling started on July 30, Amuthavalli and her daughter went to the Persons with Benchmark Disabilities (PwD) category. She stated that she would love to enroll at the Government Medical College in Virudhunagar, which is close to Tenkasi, her hometown.
Amuthavalli received a score of 147 on the NEET exam. She also mentioned how supportive her hubby was of their NEET preparation. Amuthavalli, 49, intended to study MBBS after school about thirty years ago, but he was unable to get into it, so he chose to study physiotherapy instead.
Samyuktha, who received 450 on the NEET, told reporters, “I don’t want to go to the same college as my mother. I would like to study somewhere else, possibly outside the state, and compete in the general quota. According to her mother, she is also eligible to compete in the SC quota.
On July 30, the Directorate of Medical Education and Research’s Selection Committee held offline counseling for candidates who fit into special categories, such as those with disabilities (PwD), children of former service members, and renowned athletes, as well as for the 7.5% reservation given to students attending government schools.
