What after NEET: The National Eligibility and Common Entrance Test Undergraduate (NEET UG) has played an important role in the standardization of medical education in India. NEET UG is the only exam for admission to medical and dental colleges across the country. However, the question of how to follow NEET still haunts the candidates.

Medical aspirants often spend most of their energy preparing for NEET exam. However, most of the candidates do not know what is the next step after the exam is over, which includes NEET answer key, result, cutoffs, counseling, merit list and admission.
