New Delhi: 

The syllabus of the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) will remain unchanged for the year 2021, however, the examination is expected to have more internal choice like JEE Main 2021.

“The exact pattern for NEET (UG) 2021 is yet to be announced. However, in view of the reduction of the syllabus by some boards across the country, the NEET (UG) 2021 question paper will also have options on the lines of JEE Main,” an official statement from the ministry read.
