How to Prepare for NEET 2020 in Last Two Months

Be aware of the changes in the NEET 2020 exam.

NEET is the only gateway to institutes of national importance like AIIMS and JIPMER. But if you want to take admitted to these prestigious institutions, you not only need to qualify for the medical entrance test but also meet the respective institutes’ eligibility criteria and cut-off marks.

The exam will be conducted in the offline or pen-and-paper mode. The NTA (National Testing Agency) is conducting NEET this year but it has not changed the NEET exam pattern or its difficulty level. Hence, the NEE 2020 question paper will have 180 MCQs (multiple-choice questions) and students will have to solve it in 3 hours (or 180 minutes). These questions will include:

• 45 Physics questions,
• 45 Chemistry questions, and
• 90 Biology questions (including both Botany and Zoology).

If you keep 10 minutes for reading the instructions before you start the paper and 20 minutes from revising the paper after you solve it, you will roughly have 150 minutes to solve your paper. So, you will need to solve each question in about 50 seconds. Thus, it is very important to focus on both speed and precision when you are preparing for the NEET exam.

Speed and precision can only be developed by solving full-length previous-year NEET question papers or NEET sample papers in a time-bound manner. Solve a paper in 3 hours and then, analyse it. Compare your answers with the solutions suggested in the guide. Learn shortcuts, tips, and tricks to cut down on the time you take to solve a numerical. Practice them when you solve the next question paper. At this stage, you should be solving at least one NEET paper every day.

How to Prepare for NEET 2020 in the Last Two Months:

Practice solving the paper in the Offline Mode.

These days, many students find online testing formats easier. But NEET 2020 will be conducted in paper-pencil mode where they will have to fill up the circles corresponding to the correct option for each question in the OMR (Optical Mark Recognition) sheet. Since you use a ballpoint pen to fill up the circles, you cannot change your answers later.

In the NEET exam, you get 4 marks for the correct answer. You lose 1 mark for the incorrect answer. There is no penalty or negative marking if you do not attempt a question.

Some students prefer to fill up the correct options with a light-shade pencil first, check them well, and then, use the ball-point pen to permanently mark the circles towards the tail-end of the exam duration. Using a pencil allows them to erase the incorrect options marked by mistake.

It is crucial to practice solving the papers using OMR sheets. Many students, who have not used OMR sheets earlier, find it difficult to keep track of which question they are trying to solve on the sheet. Almost all the famous NEET coaching institutes run crash courses or test series in the last two months where students can practice solving the NEET paper using OMR sheets.
To increase your speed in the NEET exam, the best practice is to solve questions in the question booklet at one go, and then, mark the OMR sheet at fixed intervals. You may decide to mark the correct answers in your OMR sheet after:

• every 15 minutes,
• solving a fixed number of questions, or
• solving questions on each page.

This strategy gives you a short break at fixed intervals and increases your efficiency.

Focus on Important Topics

With only 60 days in hand, this is not the time to learn new topics. It’s time to focus on your strengths and the chapters that carry most weightage in the NEET exam. In any competitive exam, some chapters are always favoured by examiners. One, two, three, or even four questions may be asked from these topics. If you know which topics are the favourite of NEET examiners, you can study them first and score more with less effort.

Important Topics in Physics for NEET 2020

• Optics (including Ray Optics and Optical Instruments, and Wave Optics)
• Thermodynamics
• Electrostatics (including Electric Charges and Fields, and Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance)
• Electronic Devices (with focus on Semiconductor Electronics)
• Current Electricity
• Electromagnetic Induction & Alternating Current
• Dual Nature of Matter and Radiation

in that order.
Important Topics in Chemistry for NEET 2020

• Coordination Compounds
• Thermodynamics
• Equilibrium
• Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure
• Solutions
• p-Block Elements
• Organic Chemistry: Basic Principles & Techniques
• d- and f-Block Elements
• Alcohols, Phenols and Ethers
