New Delhi: The National Testing Agency (NTA) cancelled the NEET-UG exam on May 12, after reports emerged of a ‘guess paper’ that was widely circulated through Telegram and offline before the exam. This paper contained almost 120 questions asked in the Chemistry paper exactly, out of the 410 questions. Many sold the paper online for up to ₹2 lakh even as genuine candidates spent months preparing for the exams.
“I don’t understand why the paper was given to the candidates in the first place,” Khan sir said.
“The NTA should be renamed as the ‘Never Trustable Agency,” he said mockingly.
“There were so many students who were set to take the NEET exam this year. They spent two years from the 11th grade through the 12th preparing for it; and many others took “drop years” spending three, four, or even five years to sit for this examination. And it wasn’t just the students taking the exam; their entire families were taking it right alongside them. Consequently, there are 10 million people today who are aggrieved who are heartbroken,” Physicswallah founder and teacher-influencer Alakh Pandey added.
“When such things happen, students lose their faith in the entire system. This is especially disheartening given that just three or four days prior, the NTA issued a statement on its Twitter handle, asserting: “This is not a school-level exam; it is a national-level examination. Sleep soundly; we have the exam under control. Our system is foolproof.” They claim it isn’t a mere school exam—yet, frankly, even school exams are conducted better than this! At the very least, I haven’t heard of school exam papers getting leaked,” Alakh said further.
