AHMEDABAD: A student from Gujarat aced the NEET-UG with an impressive 705 out of 720. But here’s a puzzling twist: she flunked her Class 12 science boards, held by the Gujarat Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Board (GSHSEB).
The NEET-UG results were declared centre- and city-wise on Saturday. Soon, the student’s NEET and HSC science results with the same first, middle and last names began circulating on some social media accounts.The stark contrast between the two sets of results – the exceptional NEET score alongside the board exam score of just 352 out of 700 – caught widespread attention.
While sources have confirmed the validity of the results, TOI has not yet been able to independently verify that the marksheets belong to the same individual.
Top sources in Ahmedabad’s education circles revealed that the girl had been enrolled in Classes 11 and 12 at a coaching class, registering as a “dummy” student at a local school associated with the coaching centre in Ahmedabad’s Science City area.
According to the board mark sheet, the student scored only 21 in physics, 31 in chemistry, 39 in biology and 59 in English, and in total got 352 out of 700, and failed the Class 12 exams. School sources confirmed that her parents, who are doctors, were called to discuss her poor results. The coaching centre where she was enrolled mentioned that she dropped out two months into her studies during Class 12. Due to her status as a dummy student, the school had limited information about her academic engagement.
When the NEET-UG results were announced, school authorities were stunned to find that the girl had scored 705 marks, placing her among the top performers in the state. Her NEET scores showed 99.8 percentile in physics, 99.1 percentile in chemistry and 99.1 percentile in biology, with an overall percentile of 99.9.
It’s a high score that would typically pave the way to medical college. However, experts pointed out a significant snag: her failure to clear the exams means she will not meet the eligibility criteria for medical college admissions, which requires at least 50% marks.
