In the midst of all the study pressure. Postponement of any exam is a big relief for students.
Speculations are being made that NEET UG 2023 exam may get postponed. However, the Central government has not reacted to such tweets and videos so far nor the official website www.neet.nta.nic.in has updated anything related to this on their website, but students have some genuine reasons to ask for this postponement of the exam.
The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) is a highly competitive and prestigious medical entrance examination that is conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA) in India. The exam is also considered the 3rd toughest exam in India. This exam is held every year to determine the eligibility of students seeking admission to undergraduate and postgraduate medical courses in various colleges across the country.
The NEET exam is a highly competitive and challenging exam that requires students to have an in-depth understanding of various scientific concepts, including Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. It is a comprehensive test that is designed to evaluate the knowledge, skills, and aptitude of students who wish to pursue a career in the medical field.
Reasons why students are seeking postponement of NEET
1. However, in the wake of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, students have been facing unprecedented challenges and disruptions in their education. As a result, many students have expressed their concerns over the insufficient time given to them to prepare for the NEET exam, which has led to a growing demand for its postponement.
2. Many students have been unable to attend regular classes due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has resulted in a significant loss of learning time. Additionally, the uncertainty caused by the pandemic has also led to a high level of stress and anxiety among students, making it difficult for them to focus on their studies.
3. NIOS students have expressed their concern that it will be extremely difficult for them to prepare and appear for the exam.
4. Punjab and Jammu board exams are still going on and some of their practical dates are still clashing with 7th May which is scheduled for the NEET exam.
5. Droppers are complaining that they completed their mop-up rounds in January so they have got barely 3 months to prepare which is not enough for them to prepare for one of the most difficult exams in the country.
6. All those students of CBSE boards who appeared for their 12th class examination this year got approximately 1 month to prepare. Another student wrote, "The NEET exam is crucial for our future, and we need more time to prepare for it. Postponing it will give us the opportunity to study and prepare properly."
All these aspiring students are continuously requesting the Prime Minister of India to postpone NEET UG 2023. On social media platforms such as Twitter, students have been actively sharing their opinions and concerns regarding the NEET exam. Many students have been using the hashtag #PostponeNEETUG2023, which has been trending on Twitter for several weeks.
The concerns raised by students on social media platforms have highlighted the need for the authorities to reconsider the current schedule of the NEET exam. Many students feel that the current schedule does not give them enough time to adequately prepare for the exam, which could negatively impact their performance.
Furthermore, the COVID-19 pandemic has also created a lot of uncertainties in the education system. The pandemic has resulted in the closure of schools and colleges, which has significantly impacted the learning of students. Many students have also been unable to access online classes due to the lack of proper infrastructure or internet connectivity.
Additionally, the pandemic has also caused a lot of emotional stress and trauma among students. Many students have lost their loved ones, while others have been struggling with financial difficulties. These challenges have affected their mental health and have made it even more difficult for them to prepare for the NEET exam.
Given the challenges faced by students, it is imperative that the authorities take into consideration the concerns of the students and postpone the NEET exam. A delay in the exam would not only give students more time to prepare but also reduce their anxiety levels, which would result in better performance in the exam.
Now we are waiting for the final decision to be taken by the government.
