NEET PG 2025 Postponed Following SC Order To Hold Exam In One Shift
Last Updated: NEET PG 2025: The exam was slated to held on June 15 but now stands deferred. The revised date will be notified shortly, the NBE has stated. The National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) PG 2025 has been postponed after the Supreme Court has directed the National Board of Examination to hold the exam in a single shift. The decision has been made to ensure complete transparency in the exam. Many candidates had earlier raised concerns about the continued use of the two-shift exam format in NEET PG. They were calling for a return to the traditional single-shift model, citing worries about uneven question paper difficulty and the fairness of the score normalisation process. A plea was filed in the Supreme Court challenging the conduct of the NEET-PG exam in two shifts, argues that it could lead to unfairness due to varying difficulty levels between shifts. It sought a directive for the NBE to hold the exam in a single shift to ensure a 'just, fair, reasonable, and equitable" competition for all candidates. The exam was slated to held on June 15 but now stands deferred. The revised date will be notified shortly, the NBE has stated. The board has added it would arrange more test centres and required infrastructure to conduct the exam smoothly. The exam city slip was slated to out today, June 2 and the admit cards were scheduled to be released on June 11, but that too stands postponed. The revised dates are expected to be announced soon. The NEET PG exam will be conducted in a computer-based test mode (CBT) in English only. It will consist of 200 multiple-choice questions, totaling 800 marks. The exam is divided into five sections, each containing 40 questions. Candidates will have a total of 3 hours and 30 minutes (210 minutes) to complete the exam. Each section is timed, and once a section is completed, students must proceed to the next section and cannot return to the previous one. The NEET PG will cover questions from 19 MBBS subjects, which are categorized into pre-clinical, para-clinical, and clinical subjects. First Published: June 02, 2025, 18:59 IST

SC agrees to hear plea challenging proposal to conduct NEET PG 2025 exam in 2 shifts
The Supreme Court on Monday agreed to hear a plea challenging a decision of the National Board of Examination to hold the NEET PG exam in two shifts. The National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test for Postgraduate courses (NEET PG), 2025, will be conducted on June 15, in two shifts on a computer-based platform. Its results will be declared by July 15. A bench comprising Chief Justice B R Gavai and Justice Augustine George Masih took note of the submissions of the lawyer and said that the plea will be listed for hearing soon. On May 23, the bench had said that the plea will be listed for hearing next week and it was not. The lawyer pointed it out again on Monday. 'The bench said it would list the matter this week. It is extremely urgent. The admit cards will be issued on June 2,' the lawyer said. It will be listed in a day or two, the CJI said. The bench had on May 5 sought a response from the NBE, National Medical Council, and the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare on the plea. Recently, the top court delivered a verdict issuing a slew of directions to stop seat-blocking in NEET PG counselling and directed publication of raw scores, answer keys and normalisation formulae of the exam. The plea, challenging the conduct of NEET PG exam in two shifts, said it has the potential for unfairness due to varying difficulty levels between shifts. It seeks direction to the NBE to conduct the exam in a single shift to maintain 'just, fair, reasonable and equitable' grounds of competition for all the candidates. The plea was filed by one Aditi and others.
