Way before CBSE syllabus has been reduced, The MHRD did inform that the syllabus for both JEE Mains and NEET will be reduced for the year 2021 as the Academic year has been reduced due to Corona pandemic. The MHRD has not yet officially announce the syllabus but has requested suggestions regarding the topics that can be reduced for the Academic year 2021. To complement that, CBSE has reduced the Board syllabus. And if you are preparing for appearing for NEET or JEE Mains 2021, we would suggest you to stick to NCERT books for now instead of buying any book. Not atleast until NTA releases the official revised syllabus. Because no body knows what the reduced syllabus is. So instead of buying various books available in the market, you should stick to NCERT books and prepare from them regularly. Once the official syllabus has been announced, then you can start preparing accordingly and purchase books. The topics that might be retain and the topics that might be removed are still not clear and this has to come from MHRD or NTA and so we cannot speculate.

Hello Aspirant,

In the wake of COVID-19 MHRD issued a decision stating that syllabus for session 2020-21 will be reduced by 30% approx and same will be followed in JEE as well as NEET exams.

Till now competent authorities have not released the new time table, because some delay is occuring but it will be released by the end of this month.

Also note that no any major topics will be removed from syllabus, some miscellaneous part in different chapters to be removed only.

I hope this information cleared your doubts.

Good Luck!!
