NEET PG 2023 Postponement: Response by NMC

The NMC, addressing the matters raised by the candidates state the following in detail for the NEET PG 2023 Postponement: 
  • NEET PG 2023 Exam Dates were announced six months prior to the exam date and the official notification for the same was released on September 16, 2022, through the official website by NBE.
  • Previously without the request of the postponement of the exams, more than 2 lakh candidates have registered themselves to appear for the NEET PG 2023 exams on March 5, 2023. 
  • After the request of the candidates for an extension of the internship where 18,000 candidates were ineligible was accepted, dates were extended and the application window was opened, only 5,000 new candidates had registered. 
  • As per the NMC, the 5,000 new candidates count for only 2% of the total registered candidates out of the 2 lakh candidates. So, for the convenience of only 2% of the candidates the rest 98% of candidates will suffer who have prepared for the exams and do not want the NEET PG 2023 Postponement. 
  • Finally, the NMC states that the NEET PG 2023 exam will be held as scheduled on March 5th, 2023, and over 800 exam centers have been prepared. Additionally, it is also added that the new sessions are expected to begin by July 2023 or as early as possible with the commencement of the counseling.
