More than 15 lakh students across the country have registered for NEET this year, whereas more than nine lakh have registered for JEE Main, the entrance exam for all engineering colleges except the IITs.

The NTA had also given students an option to change their opted centres for the two tests as many of them have moved to different places since the lockdown.
