NEET UG 2024: The National Testing Agency (NTA) has released the final results for the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET-UG) 2024. In the revised results, the ranks of nearly four lakh candidates have changed. Seventeen candidates have achieved a perfect score of 720 out of 720, including four girls. Among the toppers, two are from Uttar Pradesh, and there are 22 girls in the top 100.
Following the Supreme Court's order, a new merit list has been issued after removing the marks awarded for a question in physics that had two correct answers. Previously, the allocation of marks for that question resulted in 61 students receiving a perfect score of 720. With the removal of the marks for the disputed answer, the number of toppers has now been reduced to just 17. With the final results announced, counseling for admissions to medical undergraduate courses will begin soon.
On Friday evening, the NTA released the revised final answer key, followed by the updated NEET UG 2024 results and merit list. The candidates who achieved a perfect score of 720 include Mridul, Manya Anand, and Divyansh from Delhi, Gunmay Garg from Punjab, Ayush Nagariya and Aryan Yadav from Uttar Pradesh, M Mansoor from Bihar, Prachita, Iram Qureshi, Devesh Joshi, and Saurabh from Rajasthan, Arghyadeep Dutta from West Bengal, Subhan Sengupta, Plansha Agarwal, and M Neha Kuldeep from Maharashtra, Rajnish P from Tamil Nadu, Shrinand Sharmil from Kerala, and Tejas Singh from Chandigarh.
