NEET-UG 2018 Paper Analysis
- In Biology, most of the questions were based on the statements given in NCERT but some
questions deviated from NCERT. The number of questions from class XI were comparatively more than that of class XII.
If the student had read the NCERT well, he/she must have fared well in the NEET exam.
The paper was assemblage of easy, average and difficult questions. A few questions required analytical approach. Overall, the biology question paper was on the expected lines. - In Chemistry, the paper was of standard type with most of the questions were within the scope of NCERT. However, a few questions were beyond NCERT, such as, molecular orbital
configuration of heteroatomic molecules, reverse hyperconjugation, etc. All questions were
concept based and no memory based question was present. Number of questions covered from class XI and class XII were 25 and 20 respectively. One question from Organic chemistry had more than one correct option. In Inorganic portion, most of the questions were from NCERT. In physical chemistry, numericals were on easier side without lengthy calculations. In organic portion, multi-conceptual questions were asked keeping it little tricky. - In Physics, most of the paper was NCERT based. There were both types of questions theoretical as well as numerical. Nearly 80% part of the paper was numerical which is little surprising with respect to Physics. Some questions had long calculations.
Number of questions from 11th and 12th part were almost equal 21 and 24 respectively. Some theoretical questions were difficult. As expected majority questions were from rotational motion
current electricity, Ray and wave optics.

NEET-UG 2017 Paper Analysis
- Most of the questions were based on concepts given in NCERT. One can conclude that 60-70% of the complete paper was a clear reflection of NCERT.
- The Biology portion of the NEET 2017 included mostly average type of questions. Most of the
questions were based on the statements given in NCERT but some questions were not directly asked from NCERT. If a student has read the NCERT well, he/she must have fared well in it. A few questions required analytical ability. Overall, the Biology questions were on the expected lines. - In Physics, overall questions were above average. Physics paper had mix of easy, moderate and difficult questions. It had almost 50% questions, which were of calculative nature, leading to more time investment by students. Overall, the Physics question paper was time consuming due to fractional calculations. Roughly, 30% questions were theoretical and were brainstorming in nature. Most of the questions had two or more concepts interlinked and were not straightforward.
- As far as Chemistry Questions paper is concerned, the paper was of above average level. Nearly 30% questions were difficult and required strong conceptual clarity. One question has ambiguity while two questions were found beyond the scope of NCERT.
- Most of the questions were based on concepts given in NCERT. One can conclude that 60-70% of the complete paper was a clear reflection of NCERT.
- A change in trend was witnessed this year as the bar of difficulty level was definitely seen higher since questions required exceptional calculation skills. While in Biology a major fraction of questions were from class XI but in Physics & Chemistry it was nearly an equal share between XI & XII class.
