With 100 Percentile, Odisha Boy Soyeb Aftab Tops NEET 2020

October 17, 2020

With a score of distinct 100 percent, Soyeb Aftab from Odisha made the whole nation proud by clearing the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET).

The results were announced by the National Testing Agency (NTA). Soyeb scored 720 marks out of a total of 720 in the test and seized the top cut in the all India merit list. This is for the first time that the candidates have scored a whole 100 percent in the NEET exam. Tummala Snikitha from Telanagana was placed on the third position in the all India merit list with a score of  715 out of 720 in the test.

But Soyeb wasn’t the only one to score 100 per cent mark, Akanksha Singh from Delhi also scored 720 out of a total of 720 marks. But the NTA placed her in the second position in the all India merit list. According to the Education Ministry official statement because of the tie break policy, they had to declare the first and second position of both the candidates despite the same score. When two candidates secure the same marks, their performance is compared by looking at the marks that they have attached in each of the subjects and the number of wrong answers that they gave. The difference in their age is also considered to break the tie. So, in this case, because Akanksha was older than Aftab, she was placed in the second position.

This year around 15.97 Lakh students registered for the entrance exam, which was conducted on 13th September and out of the 771500 students was qualified for the test. This year the percentage of applying candidates were increased with a higher rate, but due to the ongoing pandemic, many candidates didn’t show up. The number of candidates who skipped the examination was over 1.08 Lakh.

This year also the percentage of girls qualifying for the NEET was higher than the boys. Over 7.48 lakh women appeared for the test. Of them, a total of 4,27,943 students (57.14 percent) were declared as qualified. The number of men clearing the entrance exam remained at a little over 3.43 lakh out of a total of 6,18,075 students.

10 Years in positive journalism, and counting…..

One decade of carrying positive journalism is no less than providing a service to the nation. As a result, the fear of losing the respect of the readers is what prevents us not to be stopping to any publications related to those inspiring personalities on a regulative basis in order to attain inspiration. We believe that we have espoused the cause of positive and developmental journalism with utmost honesty and rigor. Unfazed by the competing media platforms who are obsessed with the TRP game and have no qualms in compromising time honored media ethics, we can safely claim we are out of this mad race for recognition. Rather, we chose the path less trodden. And, that has positioned The Interview Times where you find it today. We chose to play up the stories of those personalities who climbed the success ladder by the dint of their grit and gumption. These were the stories which escaped the wide lens of the big media. That is the narrative which you and I find relatable. And, we count on your support and patronage to keep this tradition running.

Once again, I would like to state that the entire family of Interview Times Media Network is firmly committed to positive journalism in pursuit of making a better society in the days to come. Journalism is a passion for us, not a profession. Let’s celebrate.

In this traumatic pandemic, a thank you note is incomplete without saluting the departed as well as those who lost their loved ones while pursuing journalism selflessly. Hope better days are in the offing with light and rays.

It is therefore asked all of your’s noble donations to sustain the importance of pursuing positive journalism round the year.Lets value it sacredly.
