The National Testing Agency (NTA) has declared the result of the NEET-UG re-exam 2024. Candidates who appeared for the re-exam can now check their results on the official website: exams.nta.ac.in/NEET. The re-examination was conducted on June 23, 2024, for 1563 candidates, with 813 of them taking the re-test.
The NTA had released the answer keys for the re-exam on June 29, allowing candidates to download the provisional answer keys from the NEET website.
Why was the NEET-UG Re-Exam Conducted?
During the NEET-UG exam held on May 5, 1563 candidates across seven centers experienced delays due to the distribution of incorrect question papers. Initially, the NTA decided to grant grace marks to these affected candidates. However, this decision was later revoked following legal challenges in the Supreme Court. The Centre informed the top court that the grace marks were rescinded, and affected candidates were offered a re-examination. Candidates who chose not to take the re-exam would have their original scores, excluding any grace marks, considered final.
NEET-UG 2024
The NEET-UG, conducted by the NTA on May 5, saw participation from approximately 24 lakh candidates. Although results were declared on June 4, the examination process faced scrutiny due to allegations of question paper leaks in Bihar and other irregularities across various states. The central government has faced criticism over these alleged irregularities.
Candidates who appeared for the re-exam are encouraged to check their results promptly and ensure all necessary steps are taken for their admissions.
