NEET 2023: 5 Expert Tips to Excel Your Preparation
National Eligibility Cum Entrance Test 2025 ( NEET )
With a few months left for the NEET 2023 exam, Saurabh Kumar, Academics Director, Vidyamandir Classes shares a detailed preparation strategy for the exam. Read the five tips here.
5 Expert Tips on NEET Preparation
NEET receives over 16 lakh applications each year, indicating fierce competition for admission to over 1.5 lakh seats at major medical and dental institutes across the country. NEET 2023 will be conducted on May 7. Medical aspirants should increase their preparation tactics for this year's harder competition with only a few months left to prepare. To succeed at NEET, you'll need a well-thought-out work schedule that covers the full curriculum in a timely manner.
Physics, Chemistry, and Biology (Botany and Zoology) are the three disciplines that the NEET UG exam covers. 180 questions must be answered in three hours, with total marks remaining unchanged (720). The NEET syllabus covers the whole NCERT curriculum for Classes 11 and 12. For each accurate response, candidates receive four points, while for each incorrect response, they lose one point.
Given the high stakes of the NEET UG exam in the midst of the pandemic, applicants must avoid worry and anxiety while studying. Rather than beginning from scratch, effective preparation focuses on overcoming stress and focusing on revision.
For many aspirants, clearing the Physics topic for NEET applicants may be a daunting endeavour because of the large range of theoretical and quantitative numerical difficulties involved. While the learning technique may benefit students in NEET Biology if it is their primary stream, if Physics is their primary stream, the study plan's lack of a practical edge may prevent you from applying the principles to problem-solving. Physics students should prepare for all topics at once.
The most significant component in succeeding in NEET is having a well-thought-out work plan that covers the entire curriculum in a timely manner. You must qualify and perform well in order to be admitted to the college of your choice. Knowing what to study and how to study in less time, on the other hand, is crucial. Aspirants should complete the checklist of preparedness to achieve success in the forthcoming exam by following the recommendations below.
Preparation Tips to Excel in NEET UG 2023
Take a look at five tips on how to prepare for NEET UG 2023, which would aid in your overall and in-depth improvement in NEET preparation and help in developing an exam-taking strategy as well.
1. The Prime focus should be on NCERT
NCERT books should be the primary source of information, and they should not be overlooked. NCERT books are the greatest material to start your study because they will provide you with a firm understanding of ideas. It's also worth noting that 60-70 per cent of the NEET test is based on NCERT books.
2. Maintaining a revision timetable
The most significant component in determining performance when the clock is ticking is revision. Regardless of the successive lockdowns, serious applicants should have finished the syllabus and started revising the crucial topics by now. Simply review the previously learned subjects and chapters while revising the chapters to ensure that you remember them for longer. Aspirants can improve their conceptual and topical clarity by creating and keeping to a systematic review strategy, helping them to perform better and rank higher. When faced with a range of mathematical and numerical issues, learning formulae is one of the best strategies to obtain an advantage in physics. If you're short on time, keep a small handwritten list of formulas and go over it every day.
3. Rather than memorising information, focus on conceptual clarity
When working through challenging topics in Physics and Chemistry, if the concepts are clear, it is possible to come up with the correct answers. If you have any uncertainties, consult your teachers, mentors, and classmates. You may inquire as many times as you wish. It's an excellent habit to form because asking questions always clears up any confusion.
4. More and more sample papers and last year's mock exams should be practised
NEET mock tests or previous years’ NEET question papers help the aspirants better grasp the concepts and topics with keeping the current trends of the NEET exam. It helps in analysing the real-time performance of the aspirants which is very beneficial in highlighting their mistakes which can be avoided on the exam day.
5. Prioritise time management
If you spend too much time on questions that make you uncomfortable, you won't have enough time to solve the easier ones. So when practising mock tests, also pay attention to your problem-solving skills. When determining the test results, not only the right strategy but also time management is important. Therefore, practice enough to quickly adapt to the level of the role and be able to act quickly.
In determining an aspirant's rank, the correct plan and time management are crucial. The following months should be used judiciously to revise, maintain speed and precision while answering a specific problem, and identify and correct weaker areas.
