The National Board of Examinations (NBE) has decided not to announce the new date for the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test for postgraduate courses (NEET PG) 2024 on July 2. According to a senior official from the NBE, the announcement is expected later this week. The NBE has shared a plan with the Centre and is currently waiting for approval. This delay in announcing the exam dates is to ensure proper logistics are in place for conducting such a significant exam like NEET PG.

The NEET PG exam was initially scheduled to be held on June 22, but it was postponed less than 12 hours before the exam was supposed to take place. The exam is now likely to be conducted in August, as per the latest information. The decision to postpone the exam was made without any reports of paper leaks or other issues, as clarified by the NBE.

The Ministry of Health has been closely monitoring the situation and has emphasized the importance of maintaining the integrity of the NEET PG Entrance Examination. The ministry has assured students that a new date for the exam will be announced soon, taking into consideration the welfare and fairness of the examination process.

The NEET PG exam is a crucial step for MBBS degree holders looking to pursue postgraduate medical courses in various institutions across India. With 200 multiple-choice questions and a total score of 800, the NEET PG exam plays a pivotal role in streamlining the admission process for medical courses.

Aspirants are advised to stay updated with official announcements from the NBE regarding the new exam date. The delay in the exam schedule has raised concerns among students and stakeholders, but the NBE is working diligently to finalize the dates and ensure a smooth conduct of the NEET PG 2024 exam.
