NEET

Aspirants should start solving the NEET question papers at least six months prior to the exam. Prior to solving the previous years NEET question papers, they should complete the NEET syllabus completely. Students may also solve sectional portions from the NEET question paper after completing the preparation for each subject. Ideally students should solve the NEET question paper in the exam timing, from 2 PM to 5.20 PM, without any break. This would help them get adjusted to the exam taking environment. Moreover, the test should be taken without any break. It must also be ensured that they take the test in a quite environment either alone or with a group of fellow NEET aspirants. Creating a simulated test-taking experience is important. The above factors must be followed to get the best out of the NEET question paper.

Yes, in fact solving the question papers of previous years is an integral part of the preparation phase. They help the candidate familiarise themselves with the paper pattern and help them prepare an exam day strategy. Students must ensure that they solve the NEET question papers in a proctored manner, I. e. within the stipulated timing and duration and in one go, without any breaks. Students should ideally start solving the previous years' NEET question papers once they complete the syllabus. Another way to utilise previous years' NEET question papers is to solve the subject-wise questions separately, after completing the syllabus of each subject, students should solve the subject-wise questions from NEET question papers followed by the full-length question paper.

Aspirants can download the previous years' NEET question papers from Shiksha. Com for free. They may also visit the official website of NTA and visit the Downloads section for previous years' NEET question papers. They have to select the year, exam and Sets to check and download the question papers for NEET and other entrance exams conducted by NTA. Moreover, top coaching institutes offering NEET coaching also provide previous years' NEET question papers for the students who enrol to their institute or opt for the mock tests. There are various other social media platforms which circulate NEET question papers of previous years for practice purpose. Students preparing for next year's NEET must ensure that they collect the previous years' question papers and solve those.

Yes, candidates are allowed to carry the NEET question papers outside the exam hall after completing the exam and submitting the OMR sheets. Since NEET is conducted in a single day and single slot window, there is no restriction on taking the NEET question paper outside the exam hall. NTA also uploads question papers of NEET for each year and sets/codes on the official website. Moreover, experts from top NEET coaching institutes also release the question papers of NEET for one or multiple Sets along with solutions and answer keys. Candidates can refer to the solutions and NEET answer keys to calculate the estimated score in the exam. Based on this, they can also decide which questions to file objections against, once NTA would release the provisional NEET answer keys and open the challenge submission process.

In such a scenario, test-takers should report the question or questions to the invigilator or exam authorities and not attempt the question. The exam authorities will review the questions and in case the doubt is confirmed, marks will be rewarded to all candidates. It is advised to candidates that in case candidates come across such a question, they should move ahead and attempt other questions in accordance with the number of questions to be attempted. Attempting extra questions will not fetch any extra marks. Hence, test-takers must select the questions carefully. In case after raising objections it is found out that the question or the answer option is wrong, then NTA will award marks to all candidates. NTA has identified and shared the marking scheme for such situations:
a. If more than one option is found to be correct then Four marks (+4) will be awarded to only those who have marked any of the correct options. B. If all options are found to be correct then Four marks (+4) will be awarded to all those who have attempted the question. C. If a question is found to be incorrect or the Question is dropped then Four marks (+4) will be awarded to all those who have attempted the question. The reason could be due to human error or technical error.

Candidates will be provided with OMR sheets. They will have to shade the correct answer option corresponding to each question uniformly with a ballpoint pen which would be provided to them inside the exam hall. They should fill only one answer option circle, otherwise, the response will be considered as wrong and would result in negative marking. They will have to do the rough work on the NEET question paper, in the space provided. While answering the NEET question paper on the OMR sheet, candidates must be careful that they select the correct question number and fill up the correct answer option. There are cases where candidates solve the question and deduce the correct option, but make a mistake while filling the OMR sheet by not checking the question number or the answer option carefully. Such mistakes can cause a negative marking of one mark.

The cutoff marks required to get admission in MBBS or BDS courses through NEET UG exam vary every year and depend on various factors such as the number of applicants, difficulty level of the exam, number of available seats, etc. With 350 marks in NEET UG, it may be difficult to get admission to a government or top private medical/dental college for MBBS or BDS courses. However, it is still possible to get admission in some private medical/dental colleges with lower cutoffs. To increase your chances of getting admission, you can consider applying to multiple colleges, including both government and private ones. Additionally, you may want to explore other alternative options such as pursuing courses like B.Sc. Nursing, B.Pharma or B.A. MS which have lower cutoffs compared to MBBS or BDS. It's important to remember that admission to medical/dental colleges is a competitive process, and the cutoffs may vary from year to year. It's best to stay updated with the latest information on cutoffs and admission procedures by regularly checking the official websites of the respective colleges and the Medical Counseling Committee (MCC) website.

As an OBC candidate with a NEET UG 2023 score of 220, it may be difficult to secure admission in a good government medical college. However, you may still have a chance of getting admission in a government medical college under the state quota, depending on the number of seats available and the cut-off marks for your category. The cut-off marks for government medical colleges vary every year, and it depends on various factors such as the number of applicants, the difficulty level of the exam, and the number of available seats. Based on the previous year's cut-off, you may need a score of at least 350-400 to get admission in a government medical college under the state quota. In addition to government medical colleges, you can also consider applying for private medical colleges and deemed universities, where you may have a chance of getting admission with your NEET score. However, the fees for private medical colleges and deemed universities are usually higher than government medical colleges. I would suggest you keep an eye on the official website of the respective state's counseling authority for updates on the counseling process. Also, make sure you have all the necessary documents ready for the counseling process and follow the instructions carefully. In summary, with a NEET UG 2023 score of 220 and belonging to the OBC category, it may be difficult to secure admission in a good government medical college, but you may still have a chance of getting admission in a government medical college under the state quota or private medical colleges and deemed universities.
