NTA released the final scorecard
The NTA issued a revised scorecard following the Supreme Court's directions which retained the revised evaluation process with adjustments made to the physics section of the exam.
On Tuesday, the Supreme Court had directed the testing agency to re-evaluate the scores in the light of the IIT-Delhi expert's opinion on the physics question, which said that a question cannot have two correct answers and only one option should be considered correct.
Chief Justice of India (CJI) DY Chandrachud said, “We accept the IIT Delhi report and accordingly NTA will revise the NEET UG result on the basis that option 4 will show the only correct answer to the question.”
According to the revised final results released by the NTA on Friday, out of the 67 candidates who were declared toppers earlier, 44 got full marks due to the marks awarded for that particular physics question.
The number of toppers was later reduced to 61, taking away the grace marks given to six candidates by the agency to make up for the loss of time at some examination centres.
