New Delhi: The National Testing Agency (NTA) will hold the national medical entrance exam NEET 2021 in a changed pattern on September 12.
The changes in the existing pattern have been made to bring uniformity in the exam structure and the current syllabus of Class XII students. It may be recalled that the syllabus was reduced to compensate for the academic loss of students during the COVID-19 pandemic.
