From this year onwards, NTA has introduced the process of assigning fictitious roll numbers to the OMR answer sheets of all candidates who appeared in NEET in order to keep the evaluation process secure and confidential. This measure ensures that the examiner is not biased towards a candidate because she is unable to identify the examinee’s roll number. However, NEET-UG is evaluated by a software and human intervention occurs only while answer sheets are physically transported or fed into the computer for evaluation.
The qualified candidates have to further complete the formalities with the respective counselling authorities viz DGHS, Medical Education Directorates of States, etc. for admission to MBBS/BDS Courses.
The counselling for 15% All India Quota Seats, Deemed Universities, Central Universities, Seats of ESIC and AFMC, BHU & AMU will be conducted by Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS), Government of India.Candidates will apply for 15% All India Quota seats as per the directions of DGHS and counselling will be stopped once the seats are exhausted.
Along with the results, the NTA has also released the NEET UG 2022 qualifying cut-off on the scorecards. Candidates who have secured the qualifying cut-off will only be considered for the further admission process. The minimum qualifying cutoff by NTA has been released on the scorecard.
