NEET 2021:Likely cut off?

New Delhi: Thousands of students who appeared in NEET 2021 on Sunday have found the physics questions very tough, biology easy and chemistry moerately tough.

The question papaer was very lenghty this time because of which candidates could not attempt all the questions. Last year, there were 180 out of 180 questions to be attempted, but this year, there were 200 questions, so more time needed to go through the paper to select 180 questions.

Wahhaj Rizvi, physics faculty of exammentors.in says, ” beacuse of the lenghth of the paper, which led many students to skip some questions, the cut off marks limit might go down as compared to 2020.”

He says there was one more things which might affect students performance, and this was the uncertainty regrding the date of exam due to pandemic. The covid affected students in rural areas in particular because of which they could not perform as per their potential.
