The National Testing Agency (NTA) has released the provisional answer key for the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test Undergraduate (NEET UG) 2025. Candidates who appeared for the exam can now check the answer key on the official website neet.nta.nic.in.
Objection Window for Answer Key
NTA has also opened a challenge window for candidates who wish to raise objections against the provisional answer key or their recorded responses. This facility is available from 3 June 2025 to 5 June 2025. If a candidate believes that any answer in the key is incorrect or that their recorded response has an error, they can submit a challenge online by paying a fee of Rs 200 per question. This fee is non-refundable, even if the objection is found to be valid.
The payment can be made through debit card, credit card, or net banking. The last date and time to make the payment is 5 June 2025 at 11:50 PM. It is important to note that no challenge will be accepted without the processing fee, and objections sent through any method other than the online platform will not be considered. Detailed instructions for the challenge process have been provided in Annexures 1 and 2 available on the official website.
How to Check the NEET UG 2025 Answer Key
To access the answer key, candidates can follow these steps:
- Visit the official NEET UG website: neet.nta.nic.in
- Click on the link that reads “NEET UG 2025 Answer Key”.
- Log in using your Application Number and Password or Date of Birth.
- The provisional answer key will be displayed along with your OMR response sheet and recorded responses.

What Happens Next?
Once the challenge period is over, NTA will review all the objections submitted by candidates. If any of the challenges are found to be valid, the necessary changes will be made in the final answer key. The final answer key will then be published on the website, and the results of NEET UG 2025 will be declared shortly after. The All India Rank (AIR) list will also be released at the same time. The final key will not be open to further objections or changes.
Following the announcement of results, the counselling process for admission to MBBS, BDS, and other undergraduate medical courses will begin. Candidates are advised to keep visiting the official website regularly for updates on the final answer key, results, and further admission procedures.
