NEET UG 2023 Result Tie-Breaking Policy: Important Details
Unlike previous years, when age and application number were included in the criteria for the NEET tie-breaking policy, the National Testing Agency (NTA) has removed them this year. It is also important to note that for the NEET UG 2023 entrance exam result, if two or more students obtain the same NEET score or percentile score, NTA will follow a tie-breaking method to determine merit.

- Candidates who have obtained higher marks/percentile scores in Biology (Botany and Zoology) will be given first preference.
- If the tie persists, candidates with higher marks/percentile scores in Chemistry will be given the next preference.
- Subsequently, candidates who have secured higher marks/percentile scores in Physics will be preferred.
- If the tie still remains unresolved, the candidate with a lower proportion of attempted incorrect answers and a higher proportion of attempted correct answers in all subjects will be given priority.
