NEET 2022 Answer Key – Bonus Questions Can’t be Challenged

Candidates have come across one or more questions in the NEET 2022 answer key indicating the correct answer option as ‘5’. Since NEET 2022 questions are multiple-choice question (MCQ) type and carry four answer options only, the option ‘5’ refers to the Bonus question/answers. This means, that none of the answer options was correct and four marks will be awarded to all candidates attempting this.

For this reason, NTA has disabled the answer key challenge options for such questions so that candidates do not lose INR 200 on this. Candidates who have been trying to challenge this must note this and do not try again as it would be a futile exercise.
