Will NEET PG 2025 Be Delayed? NBE Still Looking for More Exam Centres Will NEET PG 2025 Be Delayed? On May 30, 2025, the Supreme Court told the National Board of Examinations (NBE) to administer the NEET PG 2025 exam in a single shift instead of two. This decision was made after medical students filed petitions to the Supreme Court. The court stated that having two shifts could be unfair and that the marks should not be adjusted using a normalisation process.

The lawyer of the National Board of Examinations (NBE) explained that everything was already set up for a two-shift exam, and switching to one shift could delay the exam and the counselling schedule. But the court didn’t agree. It said there are still two weeks left before the exam (scheduled for June 15), and NBE should find more exam centres to make a single-shift exam possible. Now, the big question is: Will NBE stick to the original date, or will the exam be postponed?

Will NEET PG 2025 Be Delayed? Analysis for Possibilities

Here are some reasons the NBE might consider while deciding whether to postpone the NEET PG 2025 exam: NBE is responsible for holding the exam fairly. Since the NEET PG 2025 is planned in a single shift, they may need to take extra steps to ensure security. Conducting NEET PG in a single shift is not new—it was always held this way until 2023. So, the exam may go ahead as planned.

If NBE needs to arrange more exam centres, it might take extra time. If the city intimation slip is not released on June 2, there’s a higher chance the exam could be postponed.

TCS is the agency that conducts the online examinations. NBE will work with TCS to find more exam centres. Once the centres are confirmed, the exam can be conducted on June 15. But there's a challenge, RRB NTPC exams are scheduled to be held from June 6 to 24, 2025, for over 1.2 crore candidates in three shifts per day. That means over 6 lakh students per shift. Many centres are already booked for this, making it harder for NBE to find the 900+ extra centres it needs for the NEET PG exam. This increases the chance of a delay. There are around 60% chances of the NEET PG 2025 delay, and 40% chances of the exam being held on June 15. If the National Board of Examinations (NBE) delays the examination, then by next week, it will apply for the date extension in the Supreme Court. The official update for the confirmed date is yet to be released. Students should not believe any rumours about NEET PG 2025 being postponed. They should keep preparing for the exam as planned. If there is any official update, it will be announced on the NBE's official website. Don’t trust any messages or posts on X (Twitter) unless they are also available on the official website or posted by NBE itself.
