JEE, NEET free mock tests: Over 10 lakh use National Test Abhyas App
NEW DELHI: In an encouraging development, close to 10 lakh engineering and medical aspirants used the "National Test Abhyas App" to test their preparedness for JEE (main) and NEET-UG and data reveals a significant 45% are from semi-urban, rural and under served areas and 37% have no access to private coaching.
The results suggest that while there are concerns over post-COVID stress on digitalisation leaving out a section of students, the use of the app showed that online tools can be enabling as well for a large segment with limited access to expensive private coaching. Candidates, between May 19 and June 4, spent over 7 lakh hours taking the free online practice tests offered by the National Testing Agency (NTA) which conducts the competitive entrance exams. The big plus of the tests is that the candidates are provided a detailed analysis of what went wrong.
