Ending months of speculation, the Health Ministry on Thursday announced that the National Exit Test (NExT) will be held from 2024.
NExT will be a single examination that would replace final-year MBBS examinations and the National Eligibility Entrance Test Postgraduate (NEET PG) entrance exam thus acting as a qualifying test for granting registration to doctors as well as the basis for postgraduate seat allocation.
According to sources the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), Delhi, is likely to conduct the exam which will test both the clinical and practical learning of the students.
