The National Board of Examinations (NBE) is set to conduct the NEET-PG 2025 exam on August 3 following the approval of the Supreme Court. “NEET-PG 2025 will be conducted in Single Shift on 03.08.2025 as per the approval of Hon’ble Supreme Court of India,” reads the official notice. The exam was earlier set to be conducted on June 15 in two shifts.
Since the NEET PG 2025 exam will now be held in a single shift, NBE has requested students to re-submit their choice of exam city. The selection of exam city by the candidates will be on First Come First Serve Basis. The process to choose the cities will open on June 13 and close on June 17.
“To accommodate all the candidates in Single Shift, NEET-PG will now be conducted in more cities. This will be in addition to the cities indicated in the information bulletin. Therefore, all the candidates will have to re-submit their choice of Exam City. The application form for choosing the Exam City will be live from 13.06.2025(03:00 PM) to 17.06.2025(11:55 PM),” the NBE stated.
“During submission of the online application form, candidate will be able to see only those cities where testing seats are available. The allotment of venue in the chosen Exam City will be done by NBEMS,” the notice added.
The exam will be computer based and will be conducted in collaboration with Tata Consultancy Services (TCS). For this, there is a plan to set up more than 1,000 exam centres in 250 cities across the country. About 60,000 people will be involved in conducting the exam, including site in-charge, system operator, security personnel, lab manager and electrician.
On May 30, a bench comprising Justice Vikram Nath, Justice Sanjay Kumar, and Justice N.K. Anjaria while announcing that the exam be held in a single shift, observed, “Conducting the exam in two shifts results in arbitrariness and fails to ensure a level playing field. The question papers across the two shifts can never be of the same difficulty level. While last year it may have been held in two shifts due to specific circumstances prevailing at the time, the examining body should have made efforts to conduct the examination in a single shift this year.”
