The recent declaration by the National Testing Agency (NTA) and subsequent ruling by the Supreme Court regarding the NEET (National Eligibility cum Entrance Test) data has stirred a significant discourse. This article delves into the implications of the released data, the Supreme Court’s stance, and a detailed analysis of the performance across various centers, particularly focusing on the emerging coaching hub of Sikar.
Supreme Court’s Ruling on NTA Data
On a recent morning, the NTA released city-wise and center-wise data concerning NEET results, which our team has meticulously analyzed. Despite NTA’s protest against the disclosure of students’ names and personal details, the Supreme Court overruled their objections. The court’s decision implies that this information is not confidential since it is typically revealed during state counseling rounds. The data is now publicly available for scrutiny.
Overall Performance Analysis
The data encompasses the performance of over 23,33,000 students in the NEET exam. To illustrate, 2,300 students scored above 700 marks, around 3,000 students scored above 650 marks, and approximately 8,150 students scored above 600 marks. This distribution of scores indicates the likelihood of these students securing seats in All India Institutes and public medical institutions.
Implications for Different Score Ranges
- 700+ Marks: Students scoring in this range are almost certain to secure seats in premier institutions.
- 650-700 Marks: These students stand a good chance of getting into public institutions.
- 600-650 Marks: Students in this bracket are likely to get into private colleges.
Re-Test Results: Case of Hardayal School
Before Re-test:
After Re-test:
A significant anomaly was observed in the results from Hardayal School in Hisar. Previously, eight students scored remarkably high marks(715+). Post-re-test, the highest score from this centre dropped to 682, with only two students scoring above 650 and thirteen above 600. This discrepancy raises questions about the initial result’s accuracy.
