Doctors under the Federation of Resident Doctors Association (FORDA) have urged the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) to extend the cut-off date for the National Eligibility-Entrance Test Super Speciality (NEET-SS) 2024 examination by 15 days.

Even though as per the NBE notice, the cut-off date to be eligible to appear in the NEET SS 2024 exam is 30th April 2025, FORDA has pointed out that due to the delay in the commencement of the academic year for the 2021 batch Postgraduate medical students, the tenure of PG medical courses for several doctors will be completed after the cut-off date.
