This change is part of a comprehensive initiative to increase the safety and integrity of all NBEMS multi-pusant questions-based exams including NEET-PG, NEET-MDS, NEET-SS, FMGE, DNB-PDCET, GPAT, DPEE, FDST, and FET. Candidates preparing for these exams can use a demo test to familiarize themselves with the new format.
The NEET MDS 2025 exam will be divided into two parts: Part A and Part B Part A will include 100 questions to be completed in 75 minutes, while Part B will have 140 questions over the time of 105 minutes.
Under the new format, candidates will have to complete each section within a specified time and will not be able to re -look or modify their reactions once after the time of that section.
Recent changes in NEET exams for 2025:
Following the incidents related to the question papers leaked in Hazribagh and Patna, the Supreme Court has made comprehensive CCTV monitoring and real -time monitoring at the examination centers. The court has also directed that NEET question papers should be taken in lock, GPS-track vehicles to ensure their safety.
In addition, the National Testing Agency (NTA) has released a revised course for NEET 2025, with updates in biology, physics and chemistry, reflecting changes in the latest NCERT textbooks.
To ensure transparency and fairness in conducting the examination, former ISRO Chief Dr. Of. A seven -member expert committee has been formed under the leadership of Radhakrishnan. This decision follows the alleged irregularities in the 2024 NEET examinations.
The committee has recommended the establishment of standard operating procedures (SOPs), including registration, changes in the examination center and a fixed timeline for sealing of the OMR sheet. As a result, the NTA has announced that the time limit for changing the examination centers will now be at least 30 days before the examination.
It has also proposed to limit the number of NEET efforts per candidate. While not yet officially confirmed, 3 to 5 attempts can be offered this year.
The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare has reduced the qualifying percentage for NEET MDS 2025, including general, SC, ST, OBC and UR-PWD.
Applicants now need to present a recent passport-shaped photo taken after 1 January 2025, as well as their signatures, fingerprints and relevant certificates such as class 10 mark sheet and social category documents.
Additionally, alternative questions in section B of NEET UG, as a temporary measure and in use by 2024, are now closed.
Tie-breaking rules have also been revised. The application number and age will no longer be used to determine rank in tie conditions. Instead, a defined set of criteria will be applied. If a tie persists, an independent expert committee will conduct a random selection process to determine the final qualification order.
