Frequently Asked Questions

NEET (National Eligibility cum Entrance Test) is India’s medical entrance exam for admission into MBBS, BDS, AYUSH, and veterinary courses in government and private medical colleges. It is conducted by NTA (National Testing Agency) in offline mode.

The NEET 2025 syllabus includes topics from NCERT Class 11 & 12 Physics, Chemistry, and Biology as per the NMC (National Medical Commission) guidelines. The syllabus is expected to be similar to NEET 2024 but can be confirmed on the NTA official website.

The NEET syllabus consists of: Physics: Mechanics, Optics, Electrostatics, Modern Physics, etc. Chemistry: Organic, Inorganic, and Physical Chemistry. Biology: Genetics, Human Physiology, Ecology, Biotechnology, etc.

The NEET 2024 syllabus is based on NCERT Class 11 & 12 Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. You can download the official NEET 2024 syllabus PDF from the NTA website.

APAAR (Automated Permanent Academic Account Registry) ID is a unique student identification number introduced by the Government of India under the National Educational Policy (NEP 2020) to track a student's academic records.

The NEET syllabus includes around 97 chapters: Physics: 22 chapters Chemistry: 30 chapters Biology: 45 chapters

The NEET exam has 180 questions. Physics: 50 questions (Answer 45) Chemistry: 50 questions (Answer 45) Biology: 100 questions (Answer 90) Each question carries 4 marks (total 720 marks).

There is no limit on the number of attempts for NEET. Candidates can attempt NEET as many times as they are eligible (age limit: 17 years minimum).

Follow NCERT for Biology, Physics & Chemistry Solve previous year’s papers & mock tests Make short notes & revise daily Join a test series for time management Focus on weak areas & practice MCQs daily

Biology: NCERT Class 11 & 12, Trueman’s Biology Physics: NCERT, HC Verma, DC Pandey Chemistry: NCERT, OP Tandon, MS Chauhan (Organic)

The NEET paper consists of 180 questions.

Follow a structured plan: βœ” NCERT first, then reference books βœ” Practice daily MCQs & PYQs βœ” Take mock tests every week βœ” Revise formulas, reactions, and key concepts daily

Yes, NCERT is enough for Biology (90% of questions come from NCERT). However, for Physics & Chemistry, you should practice additional MCQs and numerical problems from reference books.

PYQs help in understanding exam trends, but they are not enough. Along with PYQs, mock tests, NCERT revision, and conceptual clarity are necessary for high scores.
