To get an idea of the expected NEET cutoff marks required to qualify, candidates may take a look at the NEET cutoff marks of the previous years. The cutoff may vary but the change is not expected to be drastic.

Once the result is declared, candidates will have to apply for the counselling. While admissions to all medical courses are through NEET 2020, the MBBS and BDS counselling is held together and the Ayush courses separately. 

MBBS and BDS admissions through NEET will be through two main channels - All India which is done by DGHS for MCI for 15% of the seats in all Government medical and dental colleges of the country plus all seats in AIIMs, JIPMER, Deemed universities and Central universities as well as AFMC.

State wise counselling will be through the state medical councils only. Candidates must check the eligibility for the same before applying. Seats under these counselling will be the 85% of the seats in respective govt colleges and private colleges and universities. 

As per the recent reports on NEET 2020, around 87.7% aspirants appear for Lucknow exam centres.

National Testing Agency (NTA) will release the NEET 2020 official answer key release date is expected to be in a week. NTA will release NEET 2020 official answer key for all codes of question papers asked in the examination. In order to access the provisional NEET official answer key by NTA, candidates need to login using application number and password. 

Steps to download official NEET answer key 2020

Step 1: Visit the official website, ntaneet.nic.in and click on the link of candidate window

Step 2: Enter the application number and password

Step 3: A tab to view the NEET official answer key will appear on the screen

Step 4: Go through the answer key of your respective code and verify answers.

What is the expected NEET result date? While there is no confirmation on this, reports are the NTA will process all the OMR sheets within the next fortnight and release the NEET result. While the aim is to start NEET counselling and admissions as early as possible, the task is huge. Candidates who have appeared for NEET 2020 today can expect their NEET result by the end of September if the NEET OMR sheets are timely processed. 

Seeing the NEET 2020 question paper, aspirants can go through the below-mentioned analysis of the NEET exam.

Subject and question wise analysis of NEET 2020

Seeing the level of the NEET exam which tends to be moderate. Many aspirants are expecting that NEET 2020 cutoff might rise as they have found the NEET 2020 question paper to be easy. 

Aspirants will able to get NEET 2020 answer key shortly, till then aspirants can check how to calculate the NEET expected marks by using the answer key. 

How to calculate score using NEET answer key 2020?
Aspirants can use the below-mentioned method to calculate the score by using the answer key of NEET 2020.

• Candidates can tally their answers (as in the OMR sheet PDF) with the released NEET answer key

• Candidates must keep an eye on the code of the question paper and the NEET answer key while tallying. Candidates can find the sets and language of the answer key on the top of both, the answer key and OMR sheet

• Medical aspirants will then have to count the correct and incorrect responses to know their NEET score. In case, more than one answer is marked for a question, candidates must consider it to be unanswered. The marking scheme given below will be used to calculate scores.

Formula to calculate NEET 2020 score = [4*(Number of Correct Responses)] – [1*(Number of Incorrect Responses)]

Since most students have given a feedback of a difficult paper and only a few felt that the paper was moderate, the cutoffs are expected to be high. However Careers360 experts say that the Physics paper had 24 easy questions and 21 moderate while Chemistry had 25 easy questions and 20 moderate. In Biology 49 questions were easy and 41 were moderate. So the expected cutoff may be more or less the same or even if it varies, the difference is expected to be small. 

Last year, the National Testing Agency had taken one month to release the NEET results. However, this year owing to the pandemic and disruptions in the academic year, NTA DG has said in the live interview with Careers360 that this year NEET 2020 result will be declared in around 15 days only. So, aspirants can expect the NEET result 2020 by the end of this month.
