Removing upper age limit from NEET exam is a good Idea?

Removing upper age limit from NEET Exam will create Opportunities or it is just a The Tip Of The Iceberg for Students who just passed out from schools?

a month later

I dont think so ki ye acha idea h upper age limit hatana. mere hisab se isse kuch nhi hoga buss competition aur bad jayega jo ki already kaafi high h. maine bhi neet ki preparation kri h dekha h bache drop le kr exams dete h phr har year new students yeh exam dete h already kaafi competition aur ab ye upper age limit hatana mtlb competition will be increased more.

Currently abhi NEET PG ka exam hua h 21st May ko, is baar ka paper kesa rha sabka was it harder than before or as usual like last year.

    Versha
    Is baar overall paper thk tha na zyada hardna zyada easy. difficulty level moderate rha is baar. And is baar finally COVID 19 topic se koi question nhi pucha gya h warna last kuch saal se this topic was the limelight of the exam.

    Short mein paper ka brief du toh ye rha paper is baar ka-

    • The question paper’s overall difficulty was simple to moderate.
    • The questions were primarily focused on clinical knowledge, however they were simple and easy.
    • Queries about general medicine, preventive and social medicine, and pharmacology were asked the most, while questions about forensic medicine, ophthalmology, and ENT were asked the least.
    • There were less image-based questions about tools, investigation businesses, and ultrasonography on the exam.
    • the question paper was a little longer due to more clinical questions

    Versha
    Previous year se utna difficult toh nhi tha but kuch section mujhe lge ki pichle year zyada hard rhe…jaise ki pharmacology section and also part C of the paper i think was hard as compared to previous year paper.
