The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test for Undergraduate (NEET-UG) 2025 exam is expected to be conducted in Computer Based Test (CBT) mode. The centre is analysing the outcome of conducting NEET 2025 in online mode.

At present, the NEET UG exam is conducted in offline mode i.e. pen and paper mode. Students have to solve multiple choice questions (MCQ) and ticket the correct answers in the OMR sheet.

Reportedly, the centre is planning to conduct NEET 2025 exam in Computer Based Test (CBT) mode, as reported by Times Now News.
