Also, candidates in foreign countries wishing to change their centres to foreign cities can make corrections during the application correction process. However, they will be required to pay the differential amount, NTA added.

For candidates applying afresh from foreign countries, they can change their centres to foreign countries directly from the drop-down menu during the application.

The application form, information bulletin, syllabus and the exam pattern is available at neet.ntaonline.in.

Several changes are also made in the NEET UG exam. The application form which was earlier hosted on the neet.nta.nic.in, is now available at a new website – neet.ntaonline.in. The application fee has also been increased for all the categories of candidates. NEET UG question comprises four subjects — physics, chemistry, botany and zoology and NMC has earlier in 2023 made minor changes to the NEET syllabus for the 2024 exams. The change in the NEET UG syllabus has been made to accommodate the changes in the NCERT syllabus post-Covid.
