The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET), formerly known as the All India Pre-Medical Test (AIPMT) is an entrance examination conducted to facilitate admissions for students in postgraduate medical courses (MBBS, MD, MS) and dental courses (BDS, MDS) in government or private medical colleges and dental colleges in India.
Prior to 2019, NEET was administered by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) in partnership with Prometric Testing Pvt Ltd headquartered in the USA. Currently, National Testing Agency (NTA) under the Directorate General of Health Services at the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare is organizing the undergraduate NEET (UG) for admission into MBBS and BDS courses.
In the year of 2013, All India Pre Medical Test (AIPMT) along with individual MBBS exams were replaced by NEET UG in all states and colleges. However, many colleges and institutes had taken a stay order and conducted their own private examinations for MBBS admissions.
At present, NEET-UG is a single entrance test that offers admission to more than 66,000 MBBS and BDS seats across India.The NEET-UG was last held on 6 May, 2018 and results were declared on 4 June of the same year. Around 80% of the candidates appeared for the exam in English, 11% in Hindi, 4.31% in Gujarati, 3% in Bengali and 1.86% in Tamil in 2018
However, undergraduate courses at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS)in New Delhi and Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education & Research (JIPMER) are outside the NEET’s purview due to their own separate laws.
In March 2018, MCI (Medical Council of India) made NEET mandatory for medical aspirants planning to study abroad. Thus, any Indian student planning to pursue medical studies abroad on or after June 1, 2018, is required to apply and qualify in the NEET examination.
