Along with the new dates of the NET exam, the NTA also released new dates for exams including NCET and Joint CSIR-UGC-NET exams. The computer-based tests will include all three mentioned exams. The NET exam was previously held in offline mode, but now it will be conducted online. The Joint CSIR-UGC-NET was also cancelled, like the NET exam.

The NTA has announced that the NCET 2024 exam will now be held on July 10, 2024. The Joint CSIR-UGC-NET exam will be held between 25 to 27 July 2024.

Will The UGC-NET And Other Exams Be Fair?

Students have lost their faith in the NTA after the paper leak and cancellations of a handful of exams. The NEET-UG papers were also leaked, and the NTA’s inability to stop the paper leaks means something new needs to be done. The question on everyone’s mind is whether these exams be fair on the new dates.

NTA needs to reform to prevent paper leaks. As a result of exam cancellations, students and parents have suffered much. Exam cancellations can ruin the futures of students. Because preparing for these exams takes months, even years. The cancellation of exams ruins months of preparations for students.
