The examination dates for JEE-Mains 2021 April and May session exam and NEET 2021 is likely to release soon. According to media reports, the National Testing Agency (NTA) is likely to present its proposal to conduct competitive examinations in front of Education Minister Dr Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank on July 6. Based on the proposal, new dates for the examination can be decided.
NTA is in the process of finalizing its proposal on the dates of JEE and NEET examinations. As per the media reports, the Engineering Entrance Test and the Medical Entrance Test is likely to be held at the end of August. Earlier last month, sources close to the matter had informed news agency PTI that the pending session of JEE Main 2021 is likely to be conducted in late July or August, with a gap of 14 days between the two exams. At the same time, NEET is likely to be postponed till September. However, no such official announcement was made by the National Testing Agency.
This year NTA decided to conduct the JEE-Mains exam in four sessions to give students a chance to improve their scores. The Agency has successfully conducted the first phase of examination in February and the second phase in March. But the third and fourth phase exams to be held in April and May were postponed due to the second wave of the COVID -19 pandemic across the country. The JEE-Advanced exam for admission to the Indian Institutes of Technology and National Institutes of Technology was also postponed. The exam was scheduled to be held on July 3, 2021.
Further, the final decision on NEET UG 2021 is yet to be announced. The examination might set delayed as the registration process for the same has not been started yet. Aspiring candidates are advised to keep an eye on the official websites of the related esxams for latest updates.
