them, the candidates are informed to do the correction very carefully, as no further chance for correction will be given to the candidate, it added.
While announcing the notification for NEET, NTA had said that the application edit window might not reopen. The edit window has been opened twice now. With the reopening of the edit window, it is being speculated if the NEET exam dates would be deferred, considering a delay in the application process?
However, since the extension has been provided only for a small duration of time, it is unlikely to impact the overall schedule for the medical entrance exam.
Students have been demanding postponement of the medical entrance exams for a long. They have asked for about 40 extra days claiming that the exam dates are clashing and there is not enough time for preparation.
This year, a record number of students as many as 18.72 lakh candidates have applied for NEET. This is a record-breaking number. Experts believe that the pandemic has inspired more kids to take up medicine. Further, those who didn?t appear for the exam and took a gap are also taking it again since the upper age limit has been removed.
