What Are the Recent Changes in JEE and NEET?
For JEE Mains there are no changes recently. Although in 2021 NTA revised the JEE Main 2021 exam pattern. The exam now consists of 90 questions instead of 75, with each subject – Physics, Chemistry, and Maths – having 30 questions each.
Additionally, there are now two sections per subject – Section A and Section B. Section A has 20 MCQs, while Section B has 10 numerical-valued answer-based questions. Candidates must attempt any five questions out of ten in Section B, and the best part is that there is no negative marking in this section.
Also for the NEET exam, there are minor changes. The NEET exam duration is revised to 200 minutes (03 hours and 20 minutes), giving candidates ample time to tackle the new question paper pattern. The NEET paper now offers the option to answer questions in one section of each subject, providing greater flexibility to students.
Each subject in the NEET-UG paper has two sections – Section A and Section B. Section A consists of 35 questions, while Section B has 15 questions, out of which candidates need to attempt 10 questions. This change in the exam pattern was implemented by NTA to rationalize the decisions of different boards across the country regarding the reduction of the syllabus.
Is Physics Removed from NEET 2023?
Several NEET aspirants demanded to remove the Physics section from the exam. They argue that Physics does not hold as much significance in the MBBS curriculum as Biology and Chemistry do. However, despite this demand, NTA has decided to retain the Physics section in NEET.
This decision was taken because the Physics section holds great importance for medical aspirants and professionals for more than one reason. Without physics, the NEET cut-off score would be substantially higher because physics is essential to improving conceptual clarity.
Additionally, the Physics section also tests the pressure-taking ability of candidates, a crucial quality for medical professionals. So, while NEET aspirants may wish to focus solely on Biology and Chemistry, it is important to remember the significance of Physics in the medical field and its importance in the NEET exam.
Is JEE NEET Exam Cancelled?
As per the latest update, the Union Government has no plans to cancel the NEET, JEE, and other common entrance examinations. NEET 2023 will take place on May 7, 2023, and JEE Mains session 2 is anticipated to take place as scheduled from April 6 to April 12.
So, NEET and JEE aspirants should continue their exam preparations as per the scheduled dates, and keep an eye out for any updates or changes to the exam schedule.
Will NEET and JEE Merge with CUET in 2023?
Initially, the exam authorities had proposed the idea of merging engineering and medical entrance exams with the Common University Entrance Test (CUET), but it has not been decided if it will happen. However, as of now, there are no immediate plans to merge these exams, and there will not be a combined entrance test for at least the next two years.
So, engineering and medical aspirants will need to continue preparing for their respective entrance exams separately and stay updated on any further developments regarding the possibility of a combined entrance exam.
