The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) UG and Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Main are highly competitive exams in India. These exams are the pathway to gain admission into prestigious engineering and medical colleges in the country. Over 18 lakh students took the NEET UG and over 9 lakh students took the JEE Main in 2023. A good score in these exams can secure admission to top universities in India.

Some states provide free coaching to all students, while others offer engineering and medical entrance test tutoring to specific groups, such as Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes.
