The NEET(National Eligibility Cum Entrance Test) was held on 17th July 2022
by the NTA (National Testing Agency). The body is known to release the official
answer key & results within 3-4 weeks of the exam (based on the trend
followed for the JEE Mains), however no such announcement / update has been
made. As candidates eagerly await the results let’s take a deeper look into the
potential reasons for the delay in declaring the results
Key
Reasons For Delay In NEET UG 2022 Official Answer Key & Results
·
This
year’s NEET exam saw a record number of applicants (more than 18 lac). Given
the volume of students it is likely that the NTA is taking time to ensure there
are no major glitches in the official answer key of the exam
·
There
were several reports of logistical issues on the day of the exam. From scandals
related to cheating / rigging to incorrect question papers being distributed to
candidates. The NTA had reassured that a re-exam would be conducted for the
affected students which may also be causing a delay in overall schedule of the
exam
·
The
NTA and UGC are having to deal with several legal hurdles as students from
across the country are filing cases & PILs against the exam. There were
instances of student harassment in Kollum which have attracted a high volume of
litigation against the NTA. Students have also started protesting the UGCs
planned move to merge the JEE & NEET into the CUET exam
Students are
advised to be patient and allow the NTA to compile the results. The official
answer key is expected any time now (tentatively today / tomorrow). There will
be a window of 2-3 days for candidates to raise objections (if any) following
which the official results will be declared (tentative date as per reports is
28th August 2022)
The NEET(National Eligibility Cum Entrance Test) is a national level entrance exam for admission
into MBBS and BDS courses in India. The exam was conducted by the NTA this year
and saw a record number of applicants (~1.8 million)
