New Delhi: The education ministry<\/a> is preparing to initiate talks with the health ministry<\/a> and the National Medical Commission over reforming the format and structure of the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (Undergraduate).<\/p>\n

The move comes with the NEET-UG<\/a> 2024 exam, which saw nearly 2.4 million participants, facing allegations of question paper leaks<\/a> and grace marks being awarded to over 1,500 students. The results, announced on June 4, triggered protests and legal actions. Senior officials confirmed to ET that learning from the experience, such an effort is being initiated to minimise any vulnerabilities in the exam process.<\/p>\n

They also pointed out that a start has already been made towards NEET reforms by bringing in former AIIMS director<\/a> Dr Randeep Guleria on the high-level committee announced on Saturday to evaluate and recommend improvements in the national examination process and the structure and functioning of the National Testing Agency<\/a> (NTA).<\/p>\n

Currently, NEET-UG exam, which determines admissions to medical colleges in India, is held in a pen and paper mode on a single day across the country. The education ministry is of the view that a twice a year, computer-based testing format like that of the JEE<\/a> is better suited for a large-scale exam like NEET-UG as it is proven to be more secure and easier to process.
