Based on the NEET marks vs Rank data, the following table brings the NEET 2024 expected rank for a score of 400 to 450. The 400 marks NEET rank is given below:

Q:   What is the total number of NEET 2024 exam centres?

A:

The exact numbers of NEET 2024 exam centres was 4,750, for the original exam date of May 5, 2024. The NEET 2024 re-exam was conducted in seven exam centres located in five states across India. It is expected that the total number of the NEET exam centres in 2024 will be above 5,000. Last year, the total number of exam cities was 4,097. The number of exam cities in India has also increased this year. 

Q:   When will NTA announce the NEET 2025 date?

A:

The National Testing Agency (NTA) is likely to announce the NEET 2025 exam date in the first week of January 2025. NTA will consider various aspects such as the schedule for other national level undergraduate entrance exams, Board exams, and other factors while deciding the date. Announcing the NEET 2025 date in advance will ensure that candidates get enough time to prepare for the exam. Last year, NTA announced NEET exam date as part of a common exam calendar, consisting of JEE Main, CUET and UGC NET dates. However, this year the JEE Main dates have been announced but other exam dates, especially NEET 2025 date is yet to be announced.

Q:   When will the NEET 2025 exam be conducted?

A:

Based on the past few years' trends, it is likely that the NEET 2025 exam will be conducted in the first week of May 2025, tentatively Sunday, May 4, 2025, from 2 PM to 5.20 PM. NTA will announce the exam date through an official notice or exam calendar. It is expected that the exam will be conducted as per the previous years' trends, and there will not be any delay in the exam.

Q:   Did NTA reconduct NEET 2024 exam?

A:

As per the Supreme Court hearing dated June 13, 2024, the Centre said that the scores of 1,563 candidates who were given grace marks, are cancelled. They were given an option to reappear for the exam which was conducted on June 23, 2024. The result of this test willl be declared by June 30, 2024. The result for those candidates who will not be appearing for the re-NEET 2024, will be considered for that of the May 5 exam, devoid of grace marks.

The NEET 2024 exam was conducted by NTA on May 5, 2024 in 571 cities across India and abroad. Incidents of wrong question paper medium distribution, paper leaks and proxy exam takers were reported in the media after the conduct of the exam. As of now, as many as 13 people have been arrested in allegations of paper leak. This led to unrest among the students and stakeholders and they are demanding for a retest. Moreover, after the declaration of the result, several anomalies were observed which again led to unrest among candidates and a demand for reNEET 2024 resurfaced. NTA formed a Grievance Redressal Committee which  reviewed the complaints submitted, and decided to reconduct the exam for 1,563 candidates. 

Q:   Has NTA removed any city from the NEET 2024 exam city list?

A:

Yes, NTA removed three cities from the NEET 2024 exam city list in India. These three cities are Malegaon in Maharashtra, Rairangpur in Odisha and Faizabad in Uttar Pradesh. However, since other cities have also been added in these states, candidates will be able to select a nearby city as per their convenience. Since NTA limits the state and city choice as per the present address, applicants need not think for long to select the right exam city choices.
