The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) is a standardized entrance examination in India for students aspiring to pursue undergraduate medical (MBBS), dental (BDS), and other allied health courses (AYUSH) in both government and private institutions across the country. NEET is conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA).

Purpose and Significance of NEET

NEET aims to streamline the admission process for medical and dental courses, ensuring a uniform and fair selection criterion for all candidates. By consolidating various entrance tests into a single examination, NEET reduces the stress and financial burden on students, who previously had to appear for multiple exams.
