The National Testing Agency (NTA) has declared the results of the NEET UG 2024 retest on July 1st. The results are now available on the official NTA website, https://exams.nta.ac.in/NEET/. This announcement marks a significant step in the NEET UG 2024 admissions process, as it will determine the final ranks for all applicants.
The retest was conducted on June 23rd for 1,563 candidates who were affected by allegations of irregularities in the original exam held on May 5th. The retest addressed concerns regarding inflated scores due to ‘grace marks.’ Out of the 1,563 candidates, 813 participated in the retest, while the remaining 48% chose to retain their original scores.
Following the release of the retest results, the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC), responsible for allocating MBBS, BDS, and BSc Nursing seats, is expected to announce the official NEET UG 2024 counselling schedule on or before July 6th. This schedule will be crucial for candidates as it will outline the entire counselling process, including registration dates, document requirements, and the number of counselling rounds.
The MCC will release a detailed information bulletin on their official website, https://mcc.nic.in/, alongside the counselling schedule.
