The National Testing Agency (NTA) announced the NEET UG 2024 retest results on July 1st, and they are now accessible on the official website: https://exams.nta.ac.in/NEET/. The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC), responsible for allocating MBBS, BDS, and BSc Nursing seats, is expected to release the official NEET UG 2024 counselling schedule by July 6th.

Revised Results and Counselling Schedule

The NEET UG 2024 exam, conducted on May 5th, faced allegations of irregularities in scoring.

To address concerns over inflated scores due to 'grace marks,' a retest was administered on June 23rd for 1,563 affected candidates. Of these, 813 candidates participated, while 48% retained their original scores without grace marks. Today's announcement of the retest results will determine the final ranks for all NEET UG 2024 applicants. Media reports indicate that the number of NEET UG toppers has decreased from 67 to 61. The agency will soon publish the revised merit list on its official website.

The MCC will likely release a detailed NEET UG counselling schedule on their official website, https://mcc.nic.in/, alongside an information bulletin outlining the entire process. This schedule will provide crucial information such as registration dates, document requirements, and the number of counselling rounds.
