The National Testing Agency (NTA) conducted the Re-NEET UG 2026 examination on June 21, 2026, following the cancellation of the initial May 3, 2026, test. This re-examination was held in a single shift from 2:00 PM to 5:15 PM across India and international centers. The question paper was distributed in four distinct codes: 50, 60, 70, and 80. While the arrangement of questions differs by code, the syllabus, difficulty, and marking scheme remain uniform.
Candidates can estimate their performance using the standard NEET marking methodology. The paper consists of 180 questions, with a maximum possible score of 720.
| Response Type | Marks Awarded |
|---|---|
| Correct Answer | +4 |
| Incorrect Answer | -1 |
| Unattempted Question | 0 |
To calculate your score, use the formula: (Total Correct × 4) - (Total Incorrect × 1).
The NTA is expected to release the official provisional answer keys and candidate OMR response sheets on their official website between June 24 and June 26, 2026. Follow these steps once the window opens:
Upon the release of the provisional answer key, NTA provides a limited timeframe for candidates to challenge discrepancies. Each challenge must be accompanied by a non-refundable processing fee per question. Subject experts will review all valid challenges, and the final decision will be reflected in the final answer key, which serves as the basis for the declaration of results.
The official provisional key is expected to be released on the NTA website around June 24–26, 2026.
No, all four codes (50, 60, 70, and 80) contain identical questions with the same difficulty level; only the sequence of questions is varied.
The OMR sheet displays your marked responses, which are essential for verifying your score against the official answer key released by the NTA.
