No, the topic or chapter on earthworm is not included in the NEET Biology syllabus. The NEET 22024 syllabus underwent changes wherein certain topics were removed and various topics have been added from other state Boards. In the NEET 2024 revised syllabus, there was no mention of the Earthworms topic. Under the unit of Structural Organisation in Animals and Plants, the topic of 'Nervous and reproductive of an insect and Frog.' Based on last year's syllabus, it is estimated that the insect is cockroach, along with frog.

Yes, NCERT books are sufficient to complete the NEET syllabus. A number of past years' NEET toppers have claimed that they referred only to NCERT books for preparation. NCERT textbooks act as the base to complete the syllabus and develop conceptual clarity and understanding of the topics and chapters. However, for practice purposes, students may refer to other books and resources as well. It is advised that while starting the NEET preparation, candidates refer to the NCERT books and move towards other books and advanced resources after that.

The chance of a NEET question coming out of syllabus is low. As per the previous years' analysis, the questions were within the NEET syllabus only and the topics or chapters were evenly distributed. In case candidates encounter any question which is out of the syllabus, they must report it to the invigilator. In case test-takers know the answer and is sure of the accuracy, then they can attempt the question. Otherwise, they should leave the question unattempted. If it is proved that the question is out of NEET 2024 syllabus, NTA would cancel the question and award full marks to the candidates.
