The NEET examination is one of the most important exams for aspiring medical students. To make it more convenient for candidates living in Gulf countries, NEET exam centers are being established in these nations. This will enable students to avoid long and expensive travel to India, which was previously the only option available.
Gulf countries such as UAE, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and Kuwait have agreed to set up these exam centers. The initiative has been taken by the National Testing Agency (NTA) to provide better opportunities for future medical practitioners in these regions. Candidates can now easily apply for NEET through a simple online process and select their preferred exam center from the options provided.
This move is not only beneficial for students but also helps in promoting education across borders. Moreover, it enables medical colleges and universities to attract more international students who wish to pursue a career in medicine.
