With the NEET exam day approaching, it is crucial to spend every minute wisely. Read on to know expert tips on how to prepare for NEET 2025 in one month.
NEET 2025 One Month Preparation Strategy
The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) 2025 is scheduled to be held on May 4, 2025. With less than a month left to prepare for the exam, it is high time that aspirants shift the gear of their NEET preparation and leave no stone unturned to bridge any gap in completing the NEET syllabus or understanding the exam pattern. This article brings the strategies students must follow in the last 30 days before NEET 2025. In the last month before the exam, it is time to start revision for each important topic of the NEET 2025. This is when most candidates realise that so much has to be done and the time left is not enough. A systematic approach during the last 30 days of NEET preparation will help them complete every section and topic in time. So, how to prepare for NEET 2025 in one month?
By this time, aspirants must have completed the entire NEET syllabus from NCERT and other NEET preparation books. If not complete, most aspirants must have covered a larger portion of the NEET syllabus. The first thing that you must remember at this point is that this is not the time to start anything new. Whatever has been done till now, is what you must revise for NEET. Hence, the last month has to be dedicated primarily to revision and mock tests.

How to Prepare for NEET 2025 in One Month?
Follow the methods and steps given in the pointers below to plan your NEET 2025 preparation effectively.
Preparing A Timetable
The next step is to prepare a 30-day schedule until the NEET 2025 exam day. Everything that is included in this schedule will be the students' preparation strategy for the next month. Preparing this timetable should not take more than 15-20 minutes. After completion, it should be pasted on a wall where it is clearly visible. If possible, they may set alarms according to this timetable to avoid missing out on any preparation activity or plan for the day.
Revision
The first thing to be incorporated in this one month before NEET 2025 is ample time for revision. By now, aspirants must have figured out the amount of time required to revise a subject or topic. Based on this, they can calculate the number of hours that they will need to revise all three subjects by dividing the total number of hours by 30. On average, one should be spending nearly six to seven hours on revision. This time is inclusive of all the breaks taken between two subjects/chapters. Therefore, aspirants must make the most of this time and minimise the time spent on breaks.

Mock Tests
The next part of the one-month preparation strategy is solving the NEET mock tests. At least three to four hours every day should be dedicated to solving mock tests during the last month of NEET preparation. Students don’t have to take a complete mock test every day as it can be exhausting. They can take three complete mock tests during the week. On the remaining days, they can take subject-wise tests. They will get you into the habit of solving the questions and improve your speed, ultimately benefitting test-takers on exam day. Since the structure of the exam was changed last year, it is important to take mock tests in the new exam structure. The full-length NEET mock tests must be taken in proctored mode, i.e. solving the complete NEET question paper in three hours without taking any break.

Time Management
By now, students must have taken ample mock tests and have decided on a test-taking strategy. As the total duration of NEET has decreased by 20 minutes, there should be a foolproof strategy to utilise each minute. According to experts, candidates must allocate some time for revision at the end of attempting all the questions. The first aspect of revision is to check the questions marked for trying later and attempting those. The second aspect of revision is to go through the attempted questions to ensure there are no silly mistakes.
Learning From Your Mistakes
Merely solving the mock tests is not enough. After taking each NEET mock test, one must get it analysed by experts or teachers to identify the weak areas that need to be worked upon. This will also help candidates decide on their NEET exam-taking strategy. One must also dedicate another couple of hours to analyse the mistakes that are causing them to lose marks. Also, they should pay close attention to those questions that they could not attempt in the mock test. Doing this will ensure that they do not end up committing the same mistakes on exam day. Along with expert analysis of mock tests, self-analysis and introspection on one's performance are equally important and necessary.

Recreational Activities
As they say, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Aspirants should dedicate an hour or two to the things that they like doing, such as sports, painting, watching movies and listening to music. This will break the monotony and will help them stay focused on their studies. This time can be incorporated in between revision and solving mock tests.

Get Ample Rest to Stay Fit
The last thing that should be on NEET aspirants' timetables is six to eight hours of sleep. This may sound like too much to some, but it is important to get adequate rest before the examination. It is also important to stay healthy during this phase of NEET 2025 preparation. Along with that, students should stay indoors as much as possible. While going out, they should take precautions such as wearing masks and using sanitiser whenever necessary.
Stay focused
At the end of the day, you can’t control the results; you can only control your effort level and your focus.
-Ben Zobrist
Staying focused and disciplined is the most important thing to do. Not sticking to the timetable and randomly doing things might lead to losing precious time before the examination. Also, it is important to stay positive and optimistic by believing in themselves and their preparation.
