No Exam Centre In Foreign Countries For NEET 2020

The National Testing Agency (NTA) has told the Supreme Court that it is not possible to have overseas centres for National Eligibility-Cum-Entrance Test (NEET) (UG) 2020 as the examination is conducted offline.

The update comes after parents of around 4000 aspirants filed a plea seeking centres for the entrance exam in Gulf countries, including in Doha, Qatar, Oman, and UAE. The exam is scheduled to be conducted on September 13, 2020.

In an affidavit filed on August 11, NTA said examination cannot be conducted in cities abroad as it has to be conducted in single-shift at the same time on the same day to maintain uniformity. NTA submitted the affidavit after consultations with the Medical Council of India (MCI).

“Further, the question papers and other exam materials are to be transported from NTA headquarters to a large number of examination centres in various cities, which would require meticulous planning for safe and secure delivery of the same at the examination centres on time,” the affidavit stated.

Unlike for JEE (Main), the question papers and other exam materials for NEET (UG) have to be transported from NTA headquarter to the large number of examination centres in various cities, which would require meticulous planning for safe and secured delivery of the same at the examination centres on time. But such rigorous preparations are not required for JEE (Main), for which the question papers can be delivered to the examination centres half an hour before the examination in password-protected online mode.

“Comparatively more preparations are required to be made for the smooth conduct of the NEET (UG). Also as per the norms of MCI, NEET (UG) has to be conducted in a single shift on a single day, in order to obtain the same level of difficulty in question paper for all candidates,” the affidavit added.
