She had taken the test three times; Edappadi flays DMK, UPA
A 21-year-old student who was preparing for the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) for the fourth consecutive time died by suicide at her home in Urapakkam, around 40 km south of Chennai, on Friday evening, police said.
Police identified the deceased as S Devadarshini, who had cleared her Class 12 exam in 2021.
According to police, Devadarshini was passionate about becoming a doctor. She had taken the NEET three times earlier but failed to clear the cut-off. Unlike some of her peers, she did not enroll in any other professional course, focusing on achieving her goal of becoming a doctor for the last three years.
A police officer said her parents encouraged her to give one last attempt in May this year and she was undergoing coaching, initially in virtual mode and recently at a private coaching centre in Anna Nagar.
