Here are some topic wise preparation tips that candidates should follow while studying for NEET 2020: –
Section Physics is the hardest of all the section needs a thorough knowledge of each and every subject. This section includes 45 questions, with 180 marks, dominated by topics like Electrostatics, Mechanics, and Electronics. Evite challenging subjects and focus on things you have a good understanding of. Regularly revise all general physics formulae.
The chemistry section of the NEET exam contains 45 questions, in which three sections of organic, inorganic, and physical chemistry would be obtained by aspirants. Physical and organic chemistry dominates the chemistry section, but there were a fair number of questions from inorganic chemistry last year. Therefore, not to neglect inorganic chemistry.
In organic chemistry the focus should be on GOC (General Organic Chemistry).
This section contains 90 questions that hold 360 marks and it goes without saying that this section should be given more exposure to aspirants. Including genetics, human physiology and plant physiology are the essential chapters one can concentrate on and do several revisions. Also, there are two figure-based questions in the NCERT book paper so that one can also concentrate on NCERT figures.
A schedule will help students consistently prepare and observe their research routine. A well-prepared timetable will encourage candidates to focus on their weaker parts and allocate NEET 2020 mock test and evaluation time. It will also generate a sense of seriousness and discipline in the NEET 2020 exam preparation of a candidate. Here are a few basic steps candidates should take to plan a NEET time table.
One of the greatest problems of any entrance test is the time limit. The practice is important, not only for NEET but for any successful test. Candidates have to answer 180 questions within 3 hours of time. That means they can only devote 1 minute to every question. Time management skills are also essential to the NEET Exam. Candidates will practice NEET sample papers and question papers from previous years to improve their speed and accuracy. Furthermore, solving previous year question papers would give them an idea of the problem level complexity and chapter-wise weighting of the exam. Through solving mock papers, they can also examine their weak and strong areas
A student can be strong in one subject, and relatively weaker in another, but with that, they should not be demotivated. They should t focus on those parts they are weak, and take advice from their teachers and friends if they find it difficult. Candidates should solve NEET sample papers and question papers from the previous year to examine their weaker areas and devote more time to those sections. By this they will overcome their fear of weakness and gain confidence.
Do not follow the time table: Candidates should strictly follow the timetable for their NEET Exam preparation.
Hectic schedule: Candidates should not follow any hectic schedule or study for a long time as this may affect their retention and fatigue development.
NCERT Ignoring: Almost 70% of the questions come from NCERT textbooks, and candidates should not avoid NCERT books.
Following too many books: candidates should stop learning at one time from many books as they may get confused and mess up their preparation for the NEET exam.
Ignoring subjects: Candidates should not leave a single page of any subject in the NEET syllabus unturned when it comes to competitive entrance exams such as NEET-UG.
Try new topic: Never try a new subject or chapter in your last-minute preparation.
I hope these last-minute preparation tips for NEET 2020 will help you in your preparation. You should follow these NEET preparation tips to secure a good rank in NEET 2020.
Last but not least, don’t just take care of your physical and emotional health too. Ensure a balanced diet, physical activity in some form, and daily sleep period. These steps will result in a more positive mind and will also keep you comfortable throughout your study.
