NTA · NEET UG 2026 • ✅ Official Key Released • 📋 Unofficial Keys Available • ⏳ Challenge Window: May 15–20
Exam Date: 03 May 2026 · Booklet Codes: 11, 12, 13, 14 · Last Updated: 07 May 2026
The National Testing Agency (NTA) conducted NEET UG 2026 on 3 May 2026 in offline (pen & paper) mode across exam centres nationwide. More than 22 lakh students appeared for this exam, making it one of the largest medical entrance tests in the world. The Provisional Answer Key for all Test Booklet Codes (11, 12, 13, 14) has been officially released by NTA at neet.nta.nic.in.
The answer key is your first tool to estimate your score before the official result in June 2026. Using the official key, you can calculate a provisional score, compare it against expected cutoffs, and decide whether to raise objections on any disputed question — all before the final merit list is published.
At ResultDekho, our exam analysis team has compiled the answer key data, paper difficulty breakdown, section-wise good attempt ranges, expected cutoffs (based on 2023–2025 trends), and student feedback — all in one place so you can make fast, informed decisions without jumping between multiple sites.
Note: This page includes both NTA's official provisional key and unofficial keys by ResultDekho. Unofficial keys may differ from the official one — always treat NTA's key as authoritative for result calculation.

NEET UG 2026 Answer Key kab release hua?
NTA ne NEET UG 2026 ka Provisional Answer Key exam ke kuch din baad officially release kiya. Sabhi 4 Test Booklet Codes (11, 12, 13, 14) ke liye answer key neet.nta.nic.in par available hai.
Official aur unofficial answer key mein kya difference hai?
Official Answer Key NTA release karta hai — yeh legally valid hai aur score calculation isi se hota hai. Unofficial keys coaching institutes banate hain exam ke questions se yaad karke ya students ke feedback se — yeh quick estimation ke liye hai lekin errors ho sakti hain. Objection sirf official key ke against hi file hoti hai NTA ke portal par. Unofficial key se score calculate kar sakte hain lekin iske basis par koi official claim nahi hoti.
NEET 2026 mein kitna cutoff ja sakta hai General category ke liye?
2026 paper analysis aur pichle saalon ke trends ke basis par General/EWS category ka expected cutoff 615–630+ marks hai (50th percentile). Physics is saal harder tha jo overall scores thoda neeche rakh sakta hai pichle saalon ke comparison mein. Official cutoff June 2026 mein result ke saath declare hoga.
Answer key mein galat answer milne par challenge kaise karein?
Challenge window expected 15–20 May 2026 ke beech khulegi (NTA officially dates announce karega). neet.nta.nic.in par login karke "Challenge Answer Key" section mein jaayein. Jis question ko challenge karna ho use select karein, reason aur evidence (NCERT reference recommend kiya jata hai) provide karein, aur ₹200 per question online pay karein. Agar NTA objection accept karta hai to fee refund ho jaati hai. Final key NTA's Subject Expert Committee decide karti hai.
Mere paas Code 11 ka paper tha — dusre codes ke answers mere liye kaise useful hain?
Alag codes sirf question ka order aur option order alag hota hai — questions same hote hain. Isliye Code 12, 13, 14 ki answer key directly Code 11 par apply nahi hoti. Hamesha apne paper ke Code ki answer key use karein. NTA ki official key mein clearly Code-wise alag-alag PDFs available hain.
NEET 2026 result kab aayega?
NEET UG 2026 result June 2026 mein aane ki expect hai (tentative). Exact date NTA officially announce karega neet.nta.nic.in par. Result ke baad All India Rank (AIR) aur category rank publish hogi. ResultDekho par result update hone par notification mil sakti hai.
Rajasthan ke students ke liye state quota cutoff kitna hoga?
Rajasthan state quota (RUHS, SMS Medical College, etc.) ki cutoff All India Quota se generally kam hoti hai. State quota seats ke liye Rajasthan ke domicile holders ko preference milti hai. Rajasthan state medical counselling ke liye RUHS (Rajasthan University of Health Sciences) ki official website check karein — state-specific cutoff All India Rank se alag calculate hoti hai.
