Following a directive from the Supreme Court, the National Testing Agency (NTA) released a revised merit list for the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) UG 2024. The directive addressed an ambiguous Physics question that necessitated a recalibration of the merit list.
Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan announced on July 23 that the revised results would be released within two days.
The initial results, published on June 4, showed 67 students sharing the top rank. However, the Supreme Court's decision, based on an expert committee from IIT-Delhi, mandated accepting only one correct option for the disputed question. This adjustment will affect the scores of nearly 4.2 lakh students who had chosen the previously accepted answer, reducing the number of top scorers from 67 to an estimated 17.
