Meanwhile, the National Testing Agency (NTA) has removed the upper age limit to give the exam. Till last year, the upper age limit was 25 years for general candidates and 30 years for reserved candidates. However, in a move that is being celebrated by many candidates, this year the upper age limit has been removed.
According to experts, this could increase the competition for the exam as the number of students taking the test could increase. While it will make NEET a low-stake exam considering students will have second, or third chances at the entrance test, for fresh applicants, competition can rise.

NTA made another the exam this year. The time duration has been increased. Students will get 20 minutes extra for the exam, however, the number of questions remains the same – 180. Now, students will get 3 hours 20 minutes or 200 minutes to solve the exam. This, believe experts, can be a game-changer for candidates. As of now, there is no clarity if the increased time duration in the exam is only for reading question paper or to solve papers are well. In any of the case, this is likely to change the exam startegy for students.
