Govt to Provide Free Coaching For JEE, NEET Exams

The JEE (Joint Entrance Examination) and NEET (National Eligibility cum Entrance Test) are some of the toughest entrance exams in India. Each year, millions of students take the two tests to gain admission into engineering and architecture courses, or medical and dental colleges, respectively. The coaching industry consists of thousands of service providers, many of whom screen their students with their own entrance tests, before allowing them to undergo coaching. Then comes the astronomical fees for the coaching!

An official from the HRD Ministry  quoted in the publication said that those who attend the test centre will not be charged any fees, so it will be very beneficial for talented students who require financial assistance. What’s more, candidates from rural and semi-urban areas will also benefit, with the teaching component of the plan expected to start from May 2019. The practice centres, on the other hand, will start working on September 8th, 2018.

For the upcoming JEE-2019, the NTA will allow aspirants to sit for a mock test. This can help students analyse their preparation with NTA mentors, and rectify their errors. Further, teachers at the centre will help students with concepts and common mistakes. At noon on September 1, the online registration process for UGC-NET 2018, and JEE-Main will also open, and continue till September 30th. Well, for the hordes of students who write these exams, free help from the government might make their dreams come true!
