We have listed the NEET Tamil question paper of the past four years, from 2018 to 2021. NTA has not released the NEET question paper PDFs in Tamil for 2023 and 2024. By practising the NEET question paper in Tamil medium, candidates will be able to get a grasp on the types of questions, topics, NEET syllabus covered in the Tamil language, and more. The NEET question papers in Tamil PDF will also serve as mock tests for NEET for those who have opted for this language. The NEET Tamil question paper will also have the same NEET exam pattern as the other languages. 

NEET 2025 was conducted on May 4, 2025, at 566 exam cities across the nation and overseas. Since NEET question papers in Tamil PDF are not available, we provide the NEET question paper PDFs in English and Hindi, just so you can know the question types and topics covered in the past two years.

Q:   How many Sets are there in the NEET question paper?
A:

There are generally four Sets of NEET question papers, which are further segregated into six parts. The names of the NEET 2024 question paper Sets and codes are Q, R, S and T. For the NEET 2024 re-exam, the question paper sets were A, B, C and D. The multiple Sets and codes in the NEET question papers ensure that there is no malpractice in the conduct of the exam. The names of the Sets and codes of the regional NEET question papers are different from the English ones. While distributing the question papers of NEET invigilators had to ensure that they did not give the same set question paper to two consecutive candidates. Once candidates are given the NEET question paper by invigilators, they need to check whether the question paper and test booklet, or answer sheet is of the same code. In case of a mismatch, they need to bring the matter to the invigilators notice. In case they submit the NEET test booklet with a different code from that of the NEET question paper, their exam will stand cancelled.

Q:   Do all the Sets of NEET question papers carry the same questions?
A:

Although the questions are the same in all Sets of the NEET question paper, the order of the sections and questions vary from set to set. The different order of the sections and questions ensure that there is no malpractice conducted during the exam. Even if some questions are absolutely different in separate Sets or languages, the topics and chapters covered and difficulty level remain similar to ensure normalisation. Hence, it can be said that NTA Sets a common question paper carrying 200 questions, after which the questions are distributed across four Sets and six subsets of the NEET question paper. The subjects, and the questions within the subjects are shuffled for each of the NEET question paper Sets. This allows a parity in terms of topics covered and difficulty level, as well as allows avoidance of malpractice.

Q:   What type of questions are there in the NEET question papers?
A:
The question types in the NEET question paper is objective and multiple-choice type. Each question carries four answer options. The difficulty level of the questions range from moderate to tough. The questions are asked from the prescribed NEET syllabus. Since NEET is a paper-pencil-based test (PBT), test-takers are given OMR sheet wherein they have to mark the correct answer option through blue or black ballpoint pen provided at the exam centre. While leaving the exam centre, candidates will have to submit the test booklet or the OMR sheet and rough sheet booklet to the invigilator. They will be allowed to carry the NEET question paper with them, outside the exam hall.

Q:   Will NEET 2025 have descriptive questions?
A:

Moreover, given the fact that it is an entrance exam, there is not much significance of the descriptive questions or theoritical knowledge. Each question will carry four answer options and test-takers will have to select the correct answer option and mark it on the OMR sheet.

Q:   What are the languages in which NEET question papers are available?

The NEET question papers are available in 13 languages, which are given below. 

  1. English
  2. Hindi
  3. Bengali
  4. Urdu
  5. Assamese
  6. Gujarati
  7. Marathi
  8. Odia
  9. Kannada
  10. Tamil

The selection of the NEET question paper language will also determine the exam city choices. For example, a candidate choosing Bengali language of question will get the option of selecting exam city in West Bengal. 

Q:   How many questions are necessary to attempt per section in NEET?
A:

The number of questions you should attempt per section in NEET can vary depending on various factors, such as your level of preparation, speed, accuracy, and the difficulty level of the exam. However, it is generally advisable to attempt a sufficient number of questions to maximize your chances of scoring well.

In NEET, there are typically 180 multiple-choice questions (MCQs) divided equally among three sections: Physics, Chemistry, and Biology (Botany and Zoology). Each section consists of 45 questions, with each question carrying four marks, and one mark deducted for every incorrect answer (negative marking).

To determine the number of questions you should attempt per section, consider the following guidelines:

  1. Aim for accuracy: Quality is more important than quantity. It's better to focus on answering questions accurately rather than attempting a large number of questions with a high chance of making mistakes. Accuracy helps you accumulate marks without losing them due to negative marking.
  2. Cover the syllabus comprehensively: Ensure that you have prepared all the topics in the NEET syllabus. This will give you the confidence to attempt questions from various areas and maximize your chances of scoring well. If you are well-prepared, you will be able to attempt a higher number of questions per section. 
  3. Prioritize your strengths: Identify the topics in each section that you are most comfortable with and have a strong grasp of. Start with these questions as they are likely to be answered correctly, boosting your confidence and helping you accumulate marks quickly. 
  4. Time management: NEET has a strict time limit, so it's crucial to manage your time effectively. Allocate a certain amount of time to each section and aim to answer questions within that timeframe. Avoid spending too much time on any single question, as it can eat into the time you have for other questions. 
  5. Leave enough time for revision: It's important to have sufficient time at the end of each section to review your answers and make any necessary corrections. This ensures that you haven't made any silly mistakes or overlooked important details. 

Ultimately, the number of questions you attempt per section will depend on your personal strengths, time management skills, and level of preparation. It's a good idea to practice solving previous years' question papers and mock tests to get an idea of your speed and accuracy. This will help you gauge how many questions you can comfortably attempt within the allotted time and make adjustments accordingly.

Q:   When will NTA release the NEET 2025 OMR response sheet?
A:

NTA released the NEET 2025 OMR response sheet of candidates on June 3, 2025, within a month of conducting the exam. Within this, candidates can check their OMR sheets or response sheets where they had marked answers in. In case of any discrepancy on the response sheet, candidates could submit obections or challenges to NTA by June 5, 2025, 11.50 PM. Along with the OMR sheet, NTA also released the provisional NEET answer keys. Candidates could submit objections against either or both documents. They could also calculate the estimated scores by crosschecking their responses on the NEET OMR sheet and the answer keys. 

Q:   Are there any optional questions in NEET exam?
A:

No, the NEET exam or NEET question paper does not have any optional questions. Although there used to be 20 optional questions in total in between the years 2022 and 2024, but 2025 onwards, the optional questions in NEET were removed as part of the revision or change in the NEET exam pattern as per the pre-COVID era.
