Have a question related to IMS DIA DEE ?

when will start 2022 registration

Hello there,

Hope you are doing well . See, your question seems a bit incomplete. You ar either asking about JEE Mains-2022 registration or NEET-2022 registration. Let me tell you, there's time for the registration process of both the examinations to begin .

There hasn't been any official notification from NTA regarding the NEET UG-2022 examination dates or release of registration forms . From the ongoing situations like delayed NEET-2021 counsellings and new covid cases ,it's expected that there's still some time for release of the registration forms and also for NEET-2022 to happen .You can keep visiting the official website of NTA for further updates i.e. neet.nta.nic.in (http://neet.nta.nic.in)

Also, the first attempt for JEE Mains-2022 is expected to happen in the month of March . NTA is likely to announce the exam dates soon as well.So you can expect the registration very soon. Keep visiting the official website for JEE Mains below for further updates :
