Hi

In neet examination, mcq i. e multiple choice type questions are asked,

It means you have questions followed by four options in which one of them is correct and you have to choose the correct one to get marks.

Here's a brief a 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:-

Subjects

Sections

No. of questions

Section-wise Marks

Physics

140

Section B

Chemistry

Section B

Zoology

Section B

40

Total Marks

720

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

  • there is negative marking of one mark for every wrong answer

  • No mark is deducted for unanswered questions

Now that,

limited time is left for neet 2022 , so you should be focusing on your preparation,

  • practising chapterwise questions

  • then revising the chapters,

  • solve at least previous 10 year neet question papers as concept behind the question often gets repeated in the examination so it will be of great help in your preparation  ,

  • go through neet mock test papers as it will let you know your preparation level and and weak areas so that you can work on them and perform well in your examination.To help you in your preparation we have neet knockout for you :- https://learn.careers360.com/knockout-neet-
