67 students scoring a perfect 720 in NEET-UG 2024 raises doubts; six have seat numbers from same sequence
The NEET-UG 2024 results controversy continues as objections are raised over the normalization process, cut-off scores, and admission chances to gover.
The NEET-UG 2024 results, which were announced on Tuesday, caught a few students by surprise. A day later, concerns were voiced by parents and children regarding the extraordinary number of students (67) who achieved the highest possible score of 720 out of 720, as well as other discrepancies in the agency's statement.
A group of six students, all from Haryana, achieved perfect scores and had seat numbers in a continuous sequence, hinting at a shared exam center.
Parents are insisting that the National Testing Agency (NTA) conduct a full-scale inquiry into the reported discrepancies in test results prior to the start of counseling sessions.
On social media, students' scorecards with 718 and 719 have been shared, but parents contend that these scores seem implausible since each NEET question is said to be worth four marks, and negative grades supposedly receive one mark.
The National Testing Authority (NTA) released a statement expressing their displeasure about the absence of court cases and representations from NEET applicants regarding time loss during the May 5 exam.
