  • In physics focus on mechanics, nuclear physics, optics, thermodynamics, and Electrodynamics.
  • Divide chemistry into Inorganic chemistry, Organic chemistry, and Physical chemistry and focus on topics like Mole concept, Periodic table, General Organic Chemistry, Coordination chemistry, and Chemical Bonding.
  • Study zoology and botany separately and focus on topics like Genetics, Environment, and Ecology, Cell Biology, Basics of Biotechnology, Morphology, reproduction, and physiology of plants and animals more specifically human physiology.

 2. Study Material

  • Study material is really important when fighting exams like this thus good study material is important as well.
  • Try joining an institute where they provide with their own study material which will also include previous year question papers.
  • Solve as many questions as possible and try to focus on the weak part because there is negative marking.
  • Join online coaching to have the experience of studying in your own comfort level, many coaching institutes provide study material offline as well.
  • Make self notes and use them when revising the entire syllabus.

3. Mock Test Papers

  • Practice mock test papers and see where you have scored less and focus on those areas.
  • There are 180 questions and you have to finish it in 180 minutes ( 3 hours) allotting 1 minute to each question which becomes difficult so practicing the maximum number of papers will help a lot in this.
  • Keep the time limitation in mind when practicing this at home.

4. Self Analysis

Meeting NEET cutoff is more important to focus on the important topics like focus on 11th standard’s syllabus more in physics and 12th standard syllabus more in biology Optics, semiconductors, wave optics, rigid body diagrams, KTG are other important topics other than what is mentioned above. In chemistry master organic chemistry because more questions have been asked from organic chemistry rather than inorganic chemistry since the past few years. In biology, NCERT is the best book to study because most questions asked from this subject is there in this book itself, Anatomy, Pollination, DNA Replication, PAGE Theory, Digestive system, endocrine system are the topics to focus in Biology.

Centers for NEET examination is there all over the country and the question paper also comes in various languages like Hindi, English, Telugu, Bengali, Gujarati, Kannada, Marathi, Tamil, Assam and Oriya so it is best to attempt the paper in the language you are well versed to have a better understanding of the questions.

Avoid guesswork in the exam because most of the flukes attempted to happen to go wrong and attempt only those questions you are confident about and have fully solved the answer as there is negative marking in the exam as well and you have to avoid that at all cost. Most of the students are not able to clear the examination because they attempt questions in guesswork and that becomes the other way around for them to try and attempt questions you are confident about even if the number of questions you are attempting is less.

At the end of the day be positive, do not panic and be healthy and drink lots of water to become the best version of yourself.
