With no clarity on NEET 2021 dates, aspirants remain in dark
New Delhi: Seeing no clarity over the dates of NEET 2021, the MBBS and BDS aspirants are eagerly waiting for the National Testing Agency (NTA) to release the time table for the entrance test.
Moreover, the aspirants are worried about the syllabus and examination pattern of the NEET 2021 while at the same anticipating major changes in its mode of conduction as well.
Last month, the NTA, the exam conducting body for NEET, was looking at the possibility of conducting the NEET exam twice a year and in online mode. If implemented, this can be a big relief for candidates seeking admission to medical colleges. Asking for the same, the NTA had written to the Ministry of Health for this and sought suggestions as to whether such a possibility exists.
NEET, National Eligibility cum Entrance Test is a big competitive exam, which is conducted once a year only on pen-paper mode for admissions to MBBS and BDS courses across the country. This year for NEET 2020, 13,66,945 students participated and over 15,97,435 candidates registered for it.
While giving this exam, the aspirants go through a lot of stress, if the exam is conducted more than once a year, then the stress of the students will resultantly be less. Besides, with this year's academic year being very chaotic due to the coronavirus epidemic and candidates faced a lot of pressure.
