Hi

No, there's no Aptitude & Reasoning in NEET. There's only Physics, chemistry & Biology of 11 th & 12th level

For your reference,

Here's a brief of neet exam pattern

-----------------------) Neet examination is conducted for a total of 720 marks

-----------------------) There are  a total of 180 Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs) from Physics, Chemistry and Biology .

  • 45 questions from Physics,

  • 45 questions from Chemistry

  • 90 questions  from your biology ( botany+ zoology)


For neet 2021,

The examination pattern was changed a little bit i. e in order to give relaxation considering covid , number of questions were increased from 180 to 200 , but out of that 200 only 180 questions were to be attempted as shown below:-

Now,

For NEET 2022 ,

It's possible that examination pattern may go back to normal i.e it will have only 180 questions. Or NTA may keep the same examination pattern as to that of NEET 2021 i. e will have 200 questions in which 180 have to be attempted, considering disturbance in studies caused this year due to covid. For exact examination pattern we need to wait for the release of NEET 2022 information brochure .

-----------------------) Duration of examination is 3 hours.

-----------------------) Marking scheme:-

  • 4 marks will be awarded to you for every correct answer
