The date for the NEET 2025 result will be shared by the authority in the information bulletin. Candidates can access their NEET 2025 result by logging in with their application number, date of birth, and email. 

The National Testing Agency (NTA) released a new NEET 2024 scorecard and merit list on July 26, 2024. This was because the marks for a controversial Physics question were changed after a Supreme Court decision. Some students who picked the right answer for that question got 4 extra marks, while others who chose the wrong answer lost 1 mark. If students didn’t attempt the question, they didn’t gain or lose any marks.

After this change, 44 students scored the highest possible marks of 720. Because of the score change, the NEET 2024 rank list was updated, and the number of top scorers dropped to 17. A total of 13,15,853 students passed the NEET 2024 exam out of 23,33,162 students who took the test. Additionally, 135 students were caught using unfair methods during the exam and were disqualified, reducing the number of test-takers to 23,33,162.

How is the NEET percentile score calculated?

The NEET percentile score indicates how a candidate's performance compares to others. It represents the percentage of candidates who scored lower than a particular aspirant. The NEET percentile is determined in relation to the highest score obtained in the exam. According to NTA, the NEET percentile rank reflects the percentage of scores that fall below a specific score within a group. A standard formula is used to calculate a candidate's NEET percentile score. The formula for calculating the NEET percentile is provided below.

NEET Percentile = [(Total number of candidates who appeared - NEET rank) / Total number of candidates who appeared] × 100

NEET 2025 Tie-Breaking Rules

If two or more students get the same marks in NEET 2025, a tie-breaking method is used to decide their rank. Here’s how it works:

1. Biology Marks – The student with higher marks in Biology will get a better rank.
2. Chemistry Marks – If the tie still exists, the student with higher marks in Chemistry will be ranked higher.
3. Fewer Wrong Answers – If the tie remains, the student with fewer incorrect answers will be given a better rank.
4. Age Factor – Earlier, older candidates were given preference, but this rule was removed. However, it might be used in the second round of NEET counselling.

NEET 2025 Result Validity

• For Indian Colleges: NEET scores can be used only for the same academic year in which the exam is taken. This means students must take admission in that year itself.

• Saving the Result: Students must download and keep their NEET 2025 result from neet.ntaonline.in for at least 90 days after the results are announced. This is important because the result will be required during counselling and medical college admissions.
