The All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) Delhi has officially refuted claims of a paper leak concerning the Nursing Officer Recruitment Common Eligibility Test (NORCET‑9) preliminary exam. The institute clarified that the materials being shared online merely consist of ‘memory-based questions’ submitted by candidates who appeared for the test.
AIIMS Denies NORCET‑9 Paper Leak Claims
Following widespread speculation about a potential paper leak during the Stage I examination of NORCET‑9, AIIMS Delhi promptly addressed the concerns. The institute emphasized that no breach or leak occurred and reiterated its commitment to maintaining exam integrity. They urged candidates and the public to rely only on official information sources rather than unverified online content.
Understanding ‘Memory-Based Questions’ in the NORCET Context
Many aspirants take to social media and forums to post questions they recall from their versions of the exam. These so-called ‘memory-based questions’ circulate rapidly, generating discussions and sometimes misinformation. Consequently, AIIMS has highlighted that such questions are reconstructed from individual memories and do not represent official exam papers or answer keys.
What Constitutes Memory-Based Questions?
- Recollections by candidates who took the exam
- Informal compilations shared on online platforms
- May contain inaccuracies due to differences in memory
The Impact of Circulating Memory-Based NORCET Questions
While these questions can help future examinees in preparing and gaining an understanding of the test pattern, they can also lead to misunderstandings regarding exam content authenticity. AIIMS urges caution against treating these as official or leaked content.
