Education Ministry prepares CBT strategy for future NEET shift

The Ministry of Education is developing a national Computer-Based Testing infrastructure strategy to support large national entrance exams like NEET-UG.

The strategy focuses on standardizing test centre infrastructure, increasing geographical availability, and addressing internet connectivity in rural districts.

A final decision on transitioning the pen-and-paper medical entrance exam online is expected following recommendations from the Nandan Nilekani-led High-Powered Task Force.
