The National Testing Agency (NTA) has opened the correction window for the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test Undergraduate (NEET UG) 2024, presenting candidates with a final opportunity to rectify any mistakes in their application forms. This crucial phase in the pre-examination process is accessible via the official NEET portal at neet.nta.nic.in. Candidates are urged to make any necessary adjustments before the deadline of March 20, 11:50 PM, as there will be no extensions for corrections post this date.
Understanding the Correction Window’s Limitations
While the correction window allows for amendments in most sections of the application form, there are specific restrictions. Notably, changes to the email address provided at registration, the contact mobile number, and Aadhaar re-authentication are not permitted. This policy ensures the security and integrity of candidate information while still offering flexibility for corrections in other areas.
Additional fees may apply when making certain changes, especially if modifications in gender, category, or Persons with Disabilities (PwD) status result in a different fee structure. It’s important for candidates to review their application forms thoroughly and make any needed changes within the allotted time frame. However, it’s also crucial to understand that there will be no refunds for any additional payments made during this process.
Step-by-Step Guide to Making Corrections
To ensure a smooth and error-free correction process, follow these steps:
Navigate to the Official Website: Open your web browser and go to neet.nta.nic.in, the official portal for NEET UG 2024.
Access the Correction Window: Look for the ‘correction window link’ on the homepage and click on it to proceed.
Login to Your Account: Enter your NEET UG 2024 application number, the password created during registration, and the displayed security pin to log in to your account.
Make Necessary Corrections: Once logged in, review your application form carefully and make any required changes. Remember, this is your last chance to correct mistakes or update information before the examination.
Save and Submit: After making the adjustments, ensure you save the changes and submit the updated application form.
Print a Copy: It’s advisable to take a printout of the corrected form for your records and future reference. This copy will serve as proof of the changes made, should any discrepancies arise later.
Final Thoughts
The correction window for NEET UG 2024 is a vital step in the application process, designed to ensure that candidates present the most accurate and updated information. By following the outlined steps and understanding the limitations of the correction window, applicants can navigate this phase effectively. Remember, the deadline is firm, and no further corrections can be made post-March 20, 11:50 PM. Therefore, candidates should act promptly to finalize their applications, setting the stage for a smooth examination experience.
In an unprecedented milestone, the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test for Undergraduate (NEET-UG) registrations have shattered previous records, with over 25 lakh candidates applying for the medical entrance examination. This surge in applications marks a historic first for NEET UG, highlighting an increased interest in pursuing medical and allied health sciences education in India. The deadline for registration, which was on a Saturday, saw a flurry of activity, with a large number of students submitting their applications up until the late evening.
This year’s NEET-UG, scheduled for May 5th, has witnessed a remarkable increase in registrations, with the count reaching more than 25 lakh, a significant jump of over 4.2 lakh applicants from the previous year, 2023. Among these applicants, a striking majority of over 55%, equivalent to more than 13 lakh, are female candidates. This demographic shift underscores a growing trend of female students aspiring for careers in the medical field.
NEET-UG serves as the gateway to approximately 2.5 lakh seats in various medical and allied health sciences courses across the country. These include around 1,10,000 MBBS seats, over 26,000+ BDS (Dental) seats, 30000+ Ayurveda and a substantial number of seats in Unani, Homeopathy, Veterinary, and Nursing courses. The sheer volume of applicants this year reflects the competitive nature of the examination and the high demand for medical education in India.
In response to the unprecedented rush of applications, the authorities extended the deadline for submitting the application form to March 16th, providing prospective students with additional time to complete their registration process. This extension was a much-needed relief for many aspirants who were racing against time to ensure their candidacy for one of the most crucial examinations of their academic careers.
The examination, conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA), has evolved into one of the most sought-after entrance tests for students aiming to secure a place in medical colleges across the nation. The record-breaking number of registrations this year is a testament to the NEET-UG’s importance in the educational landscape and the aspirations of young Indians to pursue a career in healthcare.
As the date of the examination approaches, candidates are gearing up for what is poised to be a highly competitive battle for seats in prestigious medical institutions. With the number of applicants reaching new heights, the NEET-UG 2024 promises to be a landmark event in the annals of medical education in India, marking a new era of opportunity and challenge for the nation’s aspiring medical professionals.
In a significant update for medical aspirants across India, the National Testing Agency (NTA) has officially extended the registration deadline for the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test for Undergraduates (NEET UG) 2024. This development comes as a relief to many candidates who were racing against time to submit their applications by the initially set deadline of March 9. With this extension, applicants now have until March 16 to complete and submit their forms for the highly competitive MBBS entrance exam. The announcement was made earlier today, signaling NTA’s commitment to accommodating the needs of all potential test-takers.
Candidates interested in applying for NEET UG 2024 are encouraged to visit the official website, neet.ntaonline.in, to access the application form and other pertinent information related to the examination process. This extension is expected to benefit a large number of students who are aiming to secure a seat in medical colleges across the country.
The registration fee structure for NEET UG 2024 has been clearly outlined, catering to candidates from various categories. For Indian candidates falling under the General Category, the registration fee is set at Rs 1,700. To support students from reserved categories, the NTA has provided fee relaxations: General-EWS and OBC-NCL candidates are required to pay Rs 1,600, whereas SC, ST, PwBD, and third gender candidates can avail of the reduced fee of Rs 1,000.
A noteworthy update in the examination rules pertains to the tie-breaking criteria used to decide rankings among candidates with equal scores. In a departure from previous practices that considered the candidates’ age and NEET UG application number, the new criteria prioritize academic performance. The order of priority for breaking ties is now based first on scores obtained in biology, followed by chemistry, and then physics. Additionally, if the need arises, the ratio of correct to incorrect answers will be taken into account, both across disciplines and within specific subjects.
This revision in the tie-breaking rules reflects NTA’s efforts to ensure a fair and merit-based selection process for aspiring medical students. By focusing on academic performance in the core subjects of biology, chemistry, and physics, the NTA aims to prioritize subject mastery in determining the eligibility of candidates for medical education.
As the deadline approaches, students are urged to complete their registration process well in advance to avoid any last-minute technical glitches. The extension of the registration deadline for NEET UG 2024 is a welcome move by the NTA, offering hopeful medical aspirants additional time to prepare and apply for one of the most crucial examinations of their academic careers.
The Directorate of Medical Education and Training (DMET), Lucknow, also known as UPDGME, is gearing up to kickstart the Uttar Pradesh NEET 2023 Counselling process from August 2023. This significant step is conducted via an online mode, opening doors for countless aspirants dreaming of embarking on a career in medicine. The counselling process is crucial for securing a place in both government and private medical and dental colleges across the state, offering courses in MBBS and BDS.
A Closer Look at UP NEET Counselling 2023
The UP NEET Counselling is designed to fill 85% of quota seats in government colleges and a full 100% in private medical colleges within the state. This initiative aims to streamline the admission process, ensuring that candidates can secure their spots in the various government and private medical/dental schools and universities.
Key Considerations for Candidates:
No Free Exit: Candidates should note that there’s no option for a free exit after seat allotment in any counselling round. However, a free exit is possible if an allotment letter from another state is submitted.
Security Deposit: The security deposit paid during the counselling process is non-refundable if admission is not taken after the seat allotment. Furthermore, if a candidate fails to report to the college in the first round, the security deposit will be forfeited. To participate in Round 2, a new security deposit is required.
Document Verification: It is mandatory for all documents to be physically verified before the allotment of seats.
Choice Locking: This is a crucial step in the counselling process. Without locking in their choices, candidates will not be considered at the time of seat allotment.
Refund of Security Deposit: The security deposit will be refunded to candidates who are not allotted any seat or those who have been allotted a seat and have taken admission, after all rounds of the counselling process are completed.
Understanding the Seat Matrix in Uttar Pradesh Medical Colleges
The UP NEET Counselling caters to various categories of seats:
Government Seats: These are for Uttar Pradesh’s government medical or dental colleges.
Private Seats: Available in private medical colleges across Uttar Pradesh.
Muslim Minority Seats: Specifically reserved for Muslim Minority students.
Jain Minority Seats: Reserved for Jain Minority students in private medical/dental colleges.
UP Counselling Seat Matrix of Private Medical Colleges
A unique aspect of the UP NEET Counselling 2023 is the seat matrix in private medical colleges, which stands out in the country. Uttar Pradesh is the only state in India where 100% of private college seats are open to all, without any reservation. This progressive step ensures that every aspirant has an equal opportunity to secure a seat based on their merit.
