NEET-PG serves as a ranking mechanism to facilitate transparent seat allocation through centralised counselling. Earlier, the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBE) had issued a notification on 13 January regarding the revised qualifying cutoff for the 2025-26 NEET-PG admissions. According to the top official, the decision was taken from a "national perspective," stating, "We need to understand problems holistically from a national perspective."The official source further explained, "All students have cleared state university degree exams and internships. NEET PG is a competitive entrance test to built up merit list. since the seats are much lower than those of aspirant students. Here we are not changing scores of the students, and the biggest reason for negative scores is due to the structure ofthe examination with negative marking for wrong answers." "In a significant move to address the large number of vacant postgraduate medical seats across the country, the qualifying percentiles for NEET-PG 2025 admissions were revised by the National Medical Commission (NMC). This decision follows the completion of Round-2 counselling, where over 18,000 PG seats remained unfilled in government and private medical colleges," sources said. "The revision aims to ensure optimal utilisation of available seats. Leaving a large number of seats vacant undermines national efforts to improve healthcare delivery and results in the loss of valuable educational resources," sources further added. (ANI)
