This achievement shatters all previous records, with the number of qualified students almost two-and-a-half times higher than the 569 students who had qualified in 2020.
Addressing a press conference, Atishi expressed her delight at the success story, stating, “Breaking all previous records, 1,414 students from Delhi government schools have qualified for the NEET-UG exams.” She attributed this remarkable accomplishment to the Delhi government’s flagship project, the Dr. Br Ambedkar School of Specialised Excellence, which provides specialized training to students in different streams.
NEET-UG: Gateway to Medical Education
The Education Minister highlighted the exceptional performance of students from the Dr. Br Ambedkar School of Specialised Excellence, stating, “255 students from these schools appeared for NEET exams, and 243 qualified for it, which means 55 per cent qualified. I feel none of the schools or the coaching centers across the nation has such a success ratio.” This staggering success rate underscores the effectiveness of the specialized training provided by the Delhi government.
