Hello,

NEET UG is conducted for 720 marks. There are 4 sections namely Chemistry, Physics, Zoology and Botany. There will be 2 sections in each section that is section A and section B. Each section is for 180 marks. Each question carries 4 marks in section A and in section B each question carries 2.66 marks . There is 1 mark negative if the answer is incorrect. Suppose that you have attempted one wrong answer in Section A you will get 715 as 4 Marks will not be awarded as the answer is incorrect and there is 1 negative marking for each incorrect answer. So 720-4-1= 715.

Hello Aspirant,

See in all you have to do maximum of 180 questions with 4 marks for every correct answer and -1 for every wrong answer so if you attempt 179 questions correctly and 1 question with incorrect attempt then your total score would be

(179*4) - 1 = 716-1 = 715 marks out of 720 marks


For your reference the NEET UG exam pattern is described below :-

>> NEET UG paper will consists of 4 subjects namely Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Zoology and each subject will be divided in two sections, Section-A and Section-B.

>> Now Section-A will consists of 35 compulsory questions and Section-B A will consists of 15 questions out of which only 10 questions to be attempted of the choice of candidate.

>> 4 marks will be awarded for every correct answer and 1 mark will be deducted for every incorrect answer so make sure to tick only on the answer for which you are sure to avoid negative marking.

>> Total Marks for NEET UG 2021 will be 720 marks and all questions will be MCQ type.

>> Total duration of Paper will be 180 minutes i.e. 3 hours.
