A controversial question in the NEET UG 2025 exam has left thousands of medical aspirants confused and anxious about their results. Students and coaching experts flagged the question as ambiguous and misleading, demanding clarity from the National Testing Agency (NTA). However, sources close to the exam body have pointed out that the NTA already has a predefined rule to handle such issues.

🔍 What Happened?

Soon after the NEET UG 2025 exam concluded, a biology-based multiple-choice question began circulating online with claims that more than one option seemed correct—something not typically expected in a single-answer format.

This triggered a wave of concern on social media, with hashtags like #NEETConfusion and #NEETQuestionError trending. Coaching institutes also reported receiving a high number of student complaints regarding the same question.

🛑 NTA’s Response Policy in Focus

While the NTA has not yet issued a formal clarification on this specific query, its established examination policy offers clear guidance:

🔹 “If any question is found to be ambiguous or has more than one correct option, full marks will be awarded to all candidates who attempted it, as per standard normalization protocols.”

This clause, found in the official NEET UG 2025 information bulletin, reassures students that no one will be unfairly penalized due to technical glitches or question errors.

🗓️ What’s Next?

• Answer key release is expected shortly on neet.nta.nic.in, where students will be allowed to raise objections within the stipulated time window.

• NTA will review all queries before releasing the final answer key and result declaration.

🧑‍⚕️ Expert Opinion

“Such issues have occurred in past NEET papers too. The NTA usually follows its protocol strictly and awards marks fairly when there’s ambiguity,” said Dr. Sandeep Ghosh, an academic advisor at a leading NEET coaching center.

📌 Bottom Line:
If you attempted the controversial question, don’t panic—NTA’s policy ensures fair play for all. Stay updated via the official website and be ready to submit your challenges once the answer key is live.
