Human Resource Development Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank said on Tuesday that The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) for admission to medical and dental courses will be held on July 26, while the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE)-Main for admission to engineering courses will begin on July 18 and continue from July 20 to 23.
The JEE-Advanced examination for admission to the prestigious Indian Institutes of Technology (IIT) will be held in August, and the exact dates will be announced soon, Mr. Pokhriyal said, in an interaction with students via Twitter.
Over 9 lakh students have been awaiting the JEE Main exam date while 15.93 lakh have applied for NEET 2020. For NEET aspirants, there will be another major change as the Supreme Court has recently ruled in favor of the single entrance exams and now the private non-aided colleges will also have to enroll students on the basis of NEET.
