After several pleas for postponement, the Examinations (NBE) finally conducted the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test Postgraduate (NEET PG) 2023 as scheduled on Sunday, March 5, from 9 am to 12:30 pm. Candidates expect high counselling cutoffs this year after the exam because they found the NEET PG paper to be moderately easy. Many students also observed that the same question was asked multiple times with different syntax.
"The questions in this year's NEET PG were easy, it was the multiple options that were confusing. The paper largely followed the typical format of 200 questions and several questions resembled the ones that have been asked in the past," said Dr Lakhan Prakash Gupta from Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh.
As one of the students who demanded a postponement, Lakhan believed that if he had a few more days to prepare after finishing his internship, he could have excelled at the paper. "On average, I spend anywhere between 12-15 hours at my internship every day. This routine left me with very little time to prepare for NEET and a postponement would have certainly helped us all.
