The National Eligibility and Entrance Test, Undergraduate (NEET UG) 2024 retest results were made public by the National Testing Agency (NTA) today, July 1. A total of 1563 students took the test. Students who took the retest can now visit exams.nta.ac.in/NEET/, the official website, to view their results.
On June 30, at about 1:30 pm, the final answer key for the NEET UG retest was made available.
NTA had conducted a retest for selected 1563 candidates, who were initially awarded grace marks after they had claimed they suffered loss of exam time. In this exam, as many as 813 of the 1,563 candidates had appeared for the retest, officials said. While the retest was conducted in the same six cities, but different centres.
Out of the 813 candidates, none have managed to score 720/720, taking down the toppers tally from 67 to 61, as per NTA sources. Five out of the six candidates who had earlier received a perfect score of 720/720 appeared for the retest on June 23. However, they repeated high scores upwards of 680.
As per data, none of the two candidates from Chandigarh appeared for the exam. A total of 291 students out of 602 appeared from Chhattisgarh, 1 student from Gujarat, 287 out of 494 appeared from Haryana and 234 appeared from Meghalaya’s Tura.
The affected students may choose to take the retest or keep their original results, which meant they wouldn’t receive any grace marks. Revisions to the scores of the students who took the June 23 retest will be made. The students who chose not to take the retest, however, will now receive their previous original score—that is, their score without the grace marks.
The Supreme Court is currently hearing numerous more petitions pertaining to the NEET UG 2024 results; the majority of these will now be heard on July 8.
