The National Testing Agency (NTA) has announced that the NEET UG exam will take place on May 4th for a duration of three hours from 2 pm to 5 pm. The NEET UG exam will happen in pen and paper mode despite the paper leak controversy that rocked the country.

Coming to the changes made in NEET UG 2025, NTA has discontinued the optional questions in Section B of the exam. Candidates will not get any optional questions and the extra time introduced during Covid will now revert to the pre-Covid format. The optional measure was introduced as a temporary measure to accommodate the challenges posed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. 

The NEET UG paper will have 180 compulsory questions - 45 questions each in physics and chemistry and 90 questions in Biology. The NEET UG 2025 will be conducted in a total of 13 languages.
