NEET 2021 Application Form to be Released Soon; Website Launched
NEET 2021 official website has been launched by NTA, the exam conducting body. Although no information is available there yet, it states that the online application form will be available soon.
NEET 2021 Website Launched by NTA
Ahead of the decision to cancel the CBSE Board exam, NTA has launched the website of NEET 2021. While there is no other information on the exam except the introduction on NEET 2021, and a ticker that reads “Online Application Form will be Available Soon”. The NEET 2021 website can be reached by visiting neet.nta.nic.in. NTA, the conducting body for the exam has launched a new website for NEET 2021 and has not revamped the last year’s NEET website, which is still available at ntaneet.nic.in.
This development quashes the possibility of NEET 2021 being cancelled. The exam might be conducted on the originally announced date, i.e. August 1, or postponed, depending on the COVID-19 pandemic scenario at that time. Although there has been a slight drop in the number of active cases and deaths across the country, there is no assurance that the scenario in August will be better. NTA is likely to release the information bulletin and NEET 2021 application form in June or the first week of July.
