Hello Vallari,

No official information has been released with regard to the total number of students who appeared in NEET MDS 2018. We will have to wait for the merit list (if it gets released by NBE for NEET MDS) to get an estimate of the number of students who appeared for NEET MDS 2018.

However, from previous year numbers and trends, about 25-30k students would have appeared for NEET MDS 2018 this year.

Hope this helps.
