NEET PG answer key helps candidates to predict tentative score in the exam. Candidates do get an idea whether they will get high or low rank in the exam.

In short, the answer key helps candidates to make forward planning about the future course of action related to their career.
Students can use NEET PG answer key released by recognised institutes to predict total marks in exam. To calculate marks, candidates will have to count the total number of correct, incorrect responses and then calculate the score through the marking scheme. It must be noted, candidates get +4 mark for each right answer while for every wrong answer candidates get -1. Substract the total score out of negative marking from the marks out of correct answers.
MCC reduces NEET PG cutoff to fill vacant seats remain after starting two rounds. It is being said students who score top rank wish to get top branches and colleges and they do get usually in round-1 and round-2 NEET PG counselling. Once these coveted seats get filled, students have least chance to get them in remaining rounds. That is reason cutoff is reduced to encourage and make more students elligible for NEET PG counselling.
