**New Delhi:** The National Testing Agency (NTA) has announced the commencement of registrations for the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test – Undergraduate (NEET UG) 2025.

The exam itself is scheduled for May 4th, 2025, from 2 PM to 5 PM, conducted in pen-and-paper format using OMR sheets at designated centers nationwide.

This year’s NEET UG exam marks a change from previous years, eliminating the optional questions in Section B. The application fee is ₹1700 for the general category, ₹1600 for OBC and EWS candidates, and ₹1000 for SC, ST, and differently-abled candidates.

Applicants must upload several documents, including a recent passport-sized photograph (taken after January 1st, 2025), signature, fingerprints (left and right thumb and index finger), citizenship certificate (if applicable), caste certificate, class 10 mark sheet, and Aadhaar card. Applications lacking these documents will be rejected. The NTA has confirmed that the examination will be a three-hour long, pen-paper based test.

The NEET UG exam was held on May 5th in 2024 and May 7th in 2023. This year’s earlier date aims to streamline the admission process for medical colleges.
