NEET OVERVIEW
The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET UG) is an All India level
common entrance test conducted by the Central Board of Secondary Education
(CBSE) for admissions to MBBS and BDS courses at the Undergraduate level
at various government and private medical colleges in the country. NEET is
conducted annually and is mandatory for medical and dental admissions in any
institution in any state, be it Government, Private, Central or Deemed. Through
