NEET UG 2025 will be in online mode! This rumour is spreading like fire in the forest. But is there any official source that confirms this rumour? No, there is no official news regarding changing the NEET UG 2025 exam mode from pen paper to online. However, the official notification for NEET 2025 has yet to be released, so we can expect this to be one of the important changes in NEET UG 2025.
As you know, NEET UG, the only entrance exam in India, has been conducted offline (pen-and-paper) so far. However, after the NEET 2024 paper leak and some irregularities, the possibility of changes in NEET UG increased. Among all the changes in NEET 2025, everyone validated the change in exam mode to avoid paper leaks and cheating. That is why everyone is asking, Will NEET UG 2025 be online?
We are here to unfold this claim as much as possible and try to know if NEET 2025 will be online or not. If you will appear in NEET in 2025 and want to know if there will be change in NEET UG 2025 exam mode or not, stay tuned with this article.
Where it Started
There has been a long-standing demand for a change in the NEET UG exam mode. However, after the suggestion of the K Radhakrishna committee, NTA and the government are taking it seriously, as the Education Minister also indicated that they should apply the suggested changes.
This is the preamble behind the rumours of changing the NEET UG exam mode. Nevertheless, this demand is now increasing day by day.
Will NEET UG 2025 be Online?
The NEET UG 2025 will most likely be in online mode. However, we don’t have any official source to claim this, but as per the Government’s attitude towards the NEET UG, the pen-and-paper mode will be eliminated.
In the upcoming notification for the NEET UG 2025, we can see the online exam mode instead of offline. However, the online mode has some challenges, making it difficult to conduct the exam online.
Challenges in NEET UG Online Mode
As we talked earlier, NEET UG is one of the most celebrated exams in India. Lakhs of aspirants participate in the exam, which is conducted in one day, as there is a single question paper for all the aspirants.
Now, because the exam is conducted in a day, it is next to impossible to manage around 25 lakh computers in one day. It will be the biggest challenge if NEET moves towards online mode.
Solution
The only solution to this problem is that the NEET exam should be conducted in multiple shifts and days like other online entrance exams, including JEE.
Other Changes Are in the LineUp
Apart from the NEET UG 2025 online mode, the K Radhakrishnan committee suggested many other changes to maintain the serenity of NEET. Some of these changes are:
- Aspirants should have limited attempts for NEET UG.
- NTA should have its exam centres.
- There should be AI-enabled data security for face recognition during the exam.
- The exam should be in multiple stages, like JEE.
A Last Few Words
Until the official announcement is made, the talk of NEET UG 2025 going offline is only about enrollment. This change has become a cause of curiosity for students and building. Now, see what new changes are coming in the upcoming notification. Continue preparing for NEET and stay connected for updates!
