Having NCERT concepts at your fingertips will give you leverage. The NMC issued the new syllabus on 6th Oct 2023, so always choose the latest updated version of the books.
Conceptual understanding
In the context of NEET, it is crucial to recognize that the examination goes beyond mere memorization of facts and figures. NEET assesses how well you comprehend the underlying concepts and principles in subjects like Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. For example, instead of memorizing a list of reactions, understand the chemical mechanisms involved and how they apply in different contexts. In Biology, go beyond memorizing terms by understanding the processes, functions, and interconnections within living organisms.
Stay Updated
You should always refer to the official website of NEET, i.e., https://nta.ac.in for the latest syllabus updates, patterns, important dates, etc. from time to time. This will help you to prepare better and precisely.
Previous year’s papers
You should always choose books that contain questions of original papers from past years. Solving past year’s papers can give students an extra edge in their preparation. Regularly practice solving previous year’s NEET question papers to familiarize yourself with the exam pattern, understand the question types, and identify areas that require more focus.

Since Biology is the most scoring subject so while choosing sample papers make sure that they are based upon the latest pattern and cover the full syllabus of NEET. Here are some strategies to consider when creating an effective timetable for NEET preparation:
- Subject-wise prioritization: Identify your strengths and weaknesses in each subject (Physics, Chemistry, Biology). Prioritize your study time based on your proficiency in each subject. Allocate more time to challenging subjects while maintaining a balance.
- Distribute Study Sessions: Break down your study sessions into manageable blocks with breaks in between. Short, focused sessions are often more productive than long, continuous ones.
- Daily revision: Reserve time each day for the revision of previously studied topics. Regular revision helps reinforce concepts and improve retention.
- Include mock tests: Incorporate regular mock tests or practice question sessions to assess your progress, improve time management, and get accustomed to the exam pattern.
- Morning focus: Schedule more challenging or high-focus subjects during your peak concentration hours, which for many people are in the morning.
- Variety in subjects: Avoid studying the same subject for extended periods. Switch between subjects to keep your mind engaged and prevent monotony.
- Balanced breaks: Take short breaks between study sessions. Use this time to stretch, walk, or do something enjoyable to refresh your mind.
- Quality over quantity: Focus on the quality of your study sessions rather than the quantity of hours. Understand concepts thoroughly rather than rushing through topics.
