NEET 2025 best books for Physics have been enlisted in this article. Candidates preparing for the examination can get all the information about the best books here. The exam will be held in May 2025.
NEET Physics section can be tricky for a lot of aspirants. The technicalities and concepts are very important when it comes to this section of NEET 2025. Often, candidates who wish to pursue a Medicine course are well-versed in Biology and Chemistry, but not all are comfortable with Physics. The NEET 2025 exam will be conducted tentatively in the first week of May 2025. NTA will release the notification and the NEET 2025 application form in March.
With less than a year left before the exam, it is time to choose the right books for NEET preparation, which play an important role. The NEET exam pattern or structure is likely to be the same as last year. Physics subject is divided into two sections. Section A will carry 35 questions and Section B will carry 15 questions, out of which 10 questions have to be attempted. Hence, the Biology section carries the highest weightage. The key to scoring good marks in any subject is choosing the right study material at each step of preparation. Candidates preparing for NEET Physics are advised to begin their preparation with NCERT books and the question papers of previous years. Once they are thorough with these, they can refer to the other books for NEET 2025 preparation.
