Hello,

preparing for any competitive exam requires a clear mindset and strategy, you can follow as mentioned below :

1. Understand the Exam Pattern & Syllabus

  • Subjects : Physics, Chemistry, Biology (Botany + Zoology)
  • Exam Mode : Offline (Pen & Paper)
  • Total Questions : 200 (180 to be attempted)
  • Marking Scheme : +4 for correct, -1 for wrong answer
  • Syllabus : Follow NCERT for Classes 11 & 12 as the primary source

2. Make a Study Plan

  • Daily Routine : Dedicate at least 6–8 hours daily
  • Divide Time :
    • Biology – 50% (as it carries the most weightage)
    • Chemistry – 25%
    • Physics – 25% (often the toughest for students)
  • Revision Time : Keep 2–3 hours daily for revision
  • Practice MCQs : At least 100–150 daily

3. Focus on NCERT First

  • Read NCERT line by line , especially for Biology & Chemistry
  • Make short notes for revision
  • Highlight important concepts

4. Use Standard Reference Books

  • Biology : NCERT + Trueman’s Biology / Dinesh Biology
  • Chemistry : NCERT + OP Tandon (Physical), MS Chauhan (Organic)
  • Physics : NCERT + HC Verma / DC Pandey (for better understanding)

5. Practice Previous Year Papers & Mock Tests

  • Solve last 10 years' papers
  • Attempt mock tests regularly (weekly in the beginning, daily in the last 3 months)
  • Analyze mistakes & improve weak areas

6. Strengthen Conceptual Understanding

  • Avoid rote learning, understand concepts deeply
  • Use diagrams & mnemonics for memorization
  • Watch YouTube lectures (e.g., Physics Wallah, Unacademy, Vedantu) if needed

7. Maintain a Healthy Lifestyle

  • Take regular breaks to avoid burnout
  • Eat a balanced diet & exercise to stay focused
  • Ensure proper sleep (6–8 hours)

8. Join a Coaching or Online Course (if needed)

  • If self-study isn’t sufficient, join coaching institutes (Allen, Aakash, PW, etc.)
  • Enroll in online test series for practice

9. Revise Smartly

  • Revise at least twice before the exam
  • Use flashcards & summary notes
  • Focus more on weak subjects/topics

hope this will help you,

All the very best !!

Hello aspirant,

I recommend that you finish the NCERT books first. After doing the task, compare your responses to the NCERT solutions. After that, start working through previous year's NEET test papers by consulting any of the reference NEET exam preparation books. To increase your confidence for the final NEET exam, take as many practice exams as you can.
