Notably, admission to undergraduate medical programmes in India, including MBBS and BDS, is offered based on the result of the qualifying National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET), NDTV reported.

The National Testing Agency (NTA) will conduct NEET 2021. The date of the undergraduate medical entrance test is yet to be announced. Reports suggest that NEET 2021 could see major changes like multiple shifts, computer-based tests etc.

Whether these changes will be made or not will be known only after the announcement of NEET 2021 date. Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal ‘Nishank’ is likely to make an announcement regarding NEET on social media.
