The scorecard for NEET PG exam is likely to be released on the official website today. The details will be made available for download at natboard.edu.in and provide candidates with their individual scores and rank. The scorecard will now determine their eligibility for admission to various postgraduate medical courses.
Candidates will have to visit the official NBEMS websites — natboard.edu.in and nbe.edu.in — to access their results. Aspirants will have to locate the scorecard link and enter personal details including their NEET PG application number and password in order to access the scorecard.
The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (Postgraduate) was conducted at 416 centres spread across 170 cities. The exam was conducted across two shifts with a total of 228,540 candidates.
The NEET-PG examination — initially slated for June 23 — was held on August 11 after the Supreme Court refused to postpone it. It had earlier been delayed by the Health Ministry as a "precautionary measure" in the wake of alleged irregularities in certain competitive exams.
"How can we postpone such an exam. Mr Sanjay Hegde, nowadays people just come asking to postpone the exam. It's not a perfect world. We are not academic experts. As a matter of principle, we will not reschedule the exam. There are two lakh students and four lakh parents who will weep over the weekend if we postpone it. We cannot put the careers of two lakh candidates in jeopardy at the behest of five petitioners. We cannot do this. Let there be certainty for medical students. We do not know who is behind these petitions," the bench had said.
The scorecard can be downloaded from the official NBE website at nbe.edu.in or natboard.edu.in from August 30.
