Government Panel Proposes Aligning School Curriculum with NEET and JEE

A government panel draft report found a significant disconnect between school curricula and competitive exams, noting that NEET and JEE difficulty levels consistently exceed student preparedness.

The committee analyzed NEET-UG papers from 2023 to 2025 and JEE 2025 shifts, identifying Physics as a particularly difficult subject that creates a reliance on private coaching.

Recommendations include harmonizing school boards, holding entrance tests twice a year, and maintaining a minimum six-month gap between board examinations and national entrance tests.
