Over 38,000 candidates completed their online registration and scheduling process within the first 24 hours of opening of the registration window for the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test for Postgraduates (NEET-PG).
A new qualifying-cum-entrance examination, notified under the provisions of Postgraduate Medical Education Regulations, NEET-PG will be the single, mandatory test for admission to PG courses starting from the academic year 2013-14.
The National Board of Examinations (NBE) in partnership with Prometric will hold the first computer-based NEET-PG between November 23 and December 6 across 33 cities, Prometric India Managing Director Soumitra Roy said on Friday.
