NEET-UG candidates flag paper errors, layout flaws; NTA declines to comment on key complaints

Concerns over the integrity of this year's NEET-UG examination are mounting, with candidates and parents alleging serious lapses in the conduct of the paper, particularly in Gujarat and Rajasthan. While the National Testing Agency (NTA) maintains that all questions were within the prescribed syllabus, students are now pointing to faulty question papers, poor layout, and a lack of timely redressal of grievances. The NEET-UG 2025 exam was conducted on May 4, and results are expected later this month. The test is the sole gateway for over 20 lakh aspirants seeking admission to MBBS, BDS, and other undergraduate medical programmes across India. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 4BHK+Family Lounge+Utility room at 4.49Cr (All Incl)* ATS Triumph, Gurgaon Book Now Undo Faulty paper codes confuse candidates in Sikar, Jamnagar Students in Rajasthan's Sikar and Gujarat's Jamnagar have reported receiving misprinted booklets, particularly under Paper Codes 47 and 48, where question pages were jumbled or non-sequential. For instance, students with Code 47 in Sikar said question 7 was followed by question 15, leaving them confused about which circle to darken on the OMR sheet. "Students even raised the issue during the test but were told to solve the faulty paper," a parent said in a written complaint submitted to the Gujarat government and NTA. Scanned copies of the faulty booklets were attached as proof. A Gujarat state education official confirmed that such complaints had been received. Live Events Due to the confusion, some candidates inadvertently marked incorrect responses, while others said they lost critical minutes trying to match questions with the correct answer circles. When asked for a response, an NTA official declined to comment on the Sikar case, citing that the matter is sub judice. Calculus question raises syllabus concerns In addition to layout flaws, some coaching experts and students have flagged questions they say were beyond the medical entrance syllabus. One widely shared example is question 38 from Code 47, which reportedly asked candidates to solve a calculus-based derivative—a concept typically reserved for engineering exams like the JEE (Main). An NTA official responded: 'All questions were from the prescribed syllabus. The answer keys have been published and objections invited from candidates. These will be reviewed by a committee of subject experts.' However, this clarification does not address the complaints about printing and sequencing errors, which remain a layout and execution issue rather than one of academic content. With result day nearing, students and parents are demanding that the NTA not only correct such errors but also institute better mechanisms for grievance redressal, particularly in high-stakes exams like NEET-UG.

From classroom to counselling: What every NEET student should track

The journey doesn't end with the exam for lakhs of NEET aspirants in India. In fact, the most crucial and often overlooked phase begins right after the post-exam period, leading up to medical counseling. This stage is not about studying anymore; it's about strategy, awareness, and timely action. Yet, many students enter it with little guidance, making decisions based on panic or misinformation. If you've just taken NEET or are about to, here's what you should actually be tracking—from the exam hall to the counselling desk—without falling into common traps or relying solely on rank-based instincts. Your score is just the beginning—understand the context Once the exam is over, the immediate focus is on the answer keys. But beyond checking your correct answers, it's important to: l Estimate your raw score carefully using official keys l Compare your performance against expected cut-offs l Track changes in the difficulty level and overall student feedback l This isn't just about numbers—it's about gauging your standing in a dynamic pool of candidates. Track official counselling authorities Counselling processes in India are conducted by multiple authorities. You'll need to stay updated on: l MCC for AIQ and central institutions l State-specific counselling boards l Deemed university admission portals Each has its timelines, documentation rules, and portal updates. Bookmark the official websites, and check them directly. Documentation is not last-minute work Start preparing your documents early. Common pitfalls include: l Name mismatches across certificates l Category certificates are not in the right format or are not valid for the current year l Lack of proper domicile proof for the state quota l Photos not matching those used in the NEET application 6. Track your own decision-making process This may sound unusual, but during the counselling phase, your clarity and emotional control are as important as your marks. Many students: l Freeze up when their first choice isn't allotted l Panic and drop out of the process entirely l Accept a far-off seat they could've avoided with better research The shift from tests to admissions is a mirror rather than a procedure. It shows how you deal with uncertainty, how you make choices when there is little clarity, and how you react when things don't go as planned. These characteristics—adaptability, research-mindedness, and emotional stability—are what will make you stand out as a future doctor as well as a student. Counselling should therefore be viewed as your first true exam in the medical field, where wisdom is more important than concern and clarity is more important than confusion, rather than as the last obstacle.
