NEET 2019 witnesses a splurge of registrations. Around 15.19 lakh candidates have registered for the NEET 2019 Exam, which is almost 2 lakh more than the previous year’s count. The reason behind this increased number of NEET registration is, as felt by the government officials, the compulsion of NEET to pursue medical courses in foreign institutes. The number of registrations received is 14.4% more than last year. Last year the registrations received were around 13.26 lakh.

Another major factor behind the increased number of registration can be the fact that one day before the closing date of NEET 2019 application form, supreme court allowed the aspirants above the age of 25 years to appear in the NEET UG 2019 and NTA extended the closing date to December 07, 2019, i.e. 1 week more.

As per the data available, the total number of candidates who have applied for NEET 2019 and who are above 25 years of age is 5,144 (0.3%). The admission of such candidates, however, is subject to the final outcome of the case pending.

The next in line is the state of Uttar Pradesh from where the number of registrations received is 1,57,669. This is followed by the state of Tamil Nadu with 1,40,385 candidates.

    The future of medical is so dark in our country. Why people are so mad about taking medical seats. Rules for medicos are made my non medicos.Too much hardwork and time is required for taking MBBS seat , then pg and then super . At last u will be screwed in government system following their order or people will not be willing to pay to you. So when you realise , your more than half of your life is already gone .
