Candidates must try practise those topics first which have more weightage in NEET PG exam. Though NBE has not released subjectwise weightage for NEET PG 2026, candidates can refer to the previous years' record regarding subjectwise weightage of marks. A good number of questions are asked from pathology, pharmacology, and microbiology. Candidates need to prepare these topics well so that they could answer every question correctly from these topics.

Regular practice of mock test

NEET PG mock test is like a practice match before the actual game. It is just the replica of the actual exam which makes candidates learn all about the NEET PG exam pattern. Appearing in the mock test every now and then helps candidates to check their performance on the basis of their preparation. NEET PG mock test 2026 also lets candidates know whether the existing preparation strategy needs any tweak or not.

Revise thoroughly

Q:   Does NBE conduct NEET PG in pen and paper mode?
A:

No. Unlike NEET, NBE conducts NEET PG exam in computer-based mode. NEET PG pattern is declared by NBE along with the official information brochure. NEET PG pattern comprises details regarding mode and medium of exam, total number of questions, allotted time and marking scheme. As per the existing pattern, total 200 multiple choice questions are asked in NEET PG exam and candidates are provided 3.5 hours to answer them. Medium of the question paper is English only. There is no option to choose the language of the question paper. For every right answer, 4 marks is awarded and negative response -1 is deducted.

Q:   How do I prepare for NEET PG exam?
A:

NEET PG is a national level entrance test through which the admission is offered into post-graduate medical courses. Being the national level entrance test, the exam is not an easy nut to crack. Applicants will have to study and know the syllabus well in order to do well in the entrance examination. In the article below some important tips and tricks are being provided to the candidates preparing for the NEET PG. Following are some points which can be kept in mind- 1. Don’t spend too much time on medicine as there are just 21 MCQs from there. 2. The first and second part subjects are probably more important as most people don’t study them. 3. Give online tests; virtually wherever you find a chance. 4. Keep your mind cool on the day of the exam! Be rest assured that you will clear the exam if you have worked hard for it. 5. Do not just mug up guide books' answers.

Q:   Can NEET PG be cracked by studying at home?
A:

Yes. NEET PG can be cracked by self preparation at home. But it needs well-planned strategies in place. Candidates will have to put a lot of hard work and dedication. Candidates will have to revise everything that has been taught during the 4.5 years of MBBS degree course. Some of the tips for NEET PG preparation at home have been provided below:

  • Go through the syllabus first
  • Know the paper pattern and marking scheme
  • Start with basics
  • Prepare a time table and stick to it
  • Make notes and highlight important information
  • Seek advice from a mentor
  • Register for mock tests and test series
  • Satellite lectures for difficult topics
  • Regular revision

 

Revision is key. Whatever has been read from the syllabus, that needs to be revised regularly so that it remains in your mind for a longer time. Revising from notes gives you an edge. Make a strategy for the revision, like choose revision of lengthy topic with smaller one or comparatively boring topic with an interesting one. Do take care of the fact that all topics get revised on regular intervals of time.

Check previous year question papers

Solving NEET PG question papers make candidates gain confidence before the exam. Candidates get to know about the type of question being asked in the exam and their difficulty level. Candidates get an idea about the number of questions being asked from any particular topic. Previous year question paper also helps candidates to work on those areas where they lack.

Seek the guidance of seniors/professors to clear doubts

Doubts are something that makes candidates confuse and it needs to do away with as soon as possible. As NEET PG 2026 is one of the toughest exams, candidates should not live with doubt in any topics of NEET PG 2026 syllabus. Colleagues/seniors/professors should be consulted to make you understand the concept and clear doubts.

Be Postitive and Motivated

Candidates should never let the negative thought come into their mind. Never think too about the outcome in the exam. Always think that your preparation is the best. Whenever you feel low due to any reason, try to unwind yourself through the things you enjoy the most. This could be watching your favourite music or playing games or anyting else. The objective is to let brain relax and rejuvenate.
