The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) has announced the tentative exam dates for the next National Eligibility cum Entrance Test Super Speciality or NEET SS exam. As per the schedule, the exam will be held on March 29 and 30. The official notice released by the board states, “The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) will conduct NEET-SS 2024 on March 29 and 30, 2025 at various exam centres across the country.”
Applicants are advised to visit the NBEMS website from time to time for the final schedule of the examination, which will be published in the Information Bulletin for NEET-SS 2024 on the official website natboard.edu.in, the official notice said.
The announcement comes after the Supreme Court refused to interfere with the National Medical Commission’s decision to postpone NEET SS 2024. The court had on August 14 asked the commission to release the exam schedule within a month and conduct the exam by January 2025,
According to NMC, the delay in admission to MD, MS and DMB courses through NEET PG exam in the academic session 2021 is the main reason for postponing the exam. Due to COVID-19, the admission process for the batch that year was conducted between January 2022 to May 2022, delaying the start of the new academic session. The course will now be completed in January 2025. Therefore, the commission had decided to postpone NEET-SS 2024 to accommodate these students.
The NMC also said that at least 40 per cent of the students taking the NEET-SS exam are from the current batch. Students of the 2021 batch who will complete their course by January 2025 will not be able to appear for the exam if it is held this year.
The exams are usually conducted in two shifts – morning shift and afternoon shift. The first shift is conducted from 9 AM to 11:30 AM while the second shift is conducted from 2 PM to 4:30 PM. The exams will be conducted at several exam centers across the country.
