1.      By Managing Time Properly

This is the most important factor when it comes to clearing NEET exam. But most of the students start writing the paper without taking care of proper time management. And when the time gets over, they are left with no other option than leaving the unattempt questions, due to which they lose precious marks. You have 180 questions in NEET exam and 180 minutes to solve them. This means you have one minute to solve each question. Therefore, it is always advisable that you have a preset schedule in mind. Out of 180 at least 140 questions should be theory based or simple numericals that won’t take more than half a minute. So, considering that you still can spend close to 3 minutes for the challenging problems.

The best way to improve your time management in NEET exam is to solve many online mock tests as you can. It will help you understand the exam pattern and make a strategy accordingly. MTG Online Mock Test Series is simple yet highly effective test platform giving you multiple types of tests based on the topic and level of difficulties. It helps you in increasing your speed and improve your question solving skills with better accuracy.

2.     Getting Right Order of Attempt

NEET question paper has a mix of easy, average and difficult questions. Doing hard questions first will waste your time and make you lose confidence. Remember both hard and easy questions carry same marks. So, it’s better to attempt all the easy questions first and follow the order of attempt that you are comfortable with. It plays a good role in building up your strategy to attempt the exam.

Our preferred order of Attempt is: Biology | Physics | Chemistry

Because…

If you get 82 questions right out of 90 questions in Biology that would make 320 marks.

35 correct answers out 45 in Chemistry would give you 130 marks.

In Physics, 30 correct answers out of 45 questions will make 105 marks.

This will totally make 555 NEET score out of 720 and if you succeed in getting this result you will just have the good chances to get admission in a good medical college.

You are advised to solve as many test series as you can with different orders and see what order works best for you. Follow that order and include it in your strategy.

3.     Try to Avoid Negative Marking

Every negative mark avoided is also a mark gained! There is a negative marking for every wrong attempt. So, you need to have clarity on what you know and what you don’t. Remember, blind guessing will never help you in NEET exam. It only discourages you at the end, nothing else! But then again if you are able to guess smartly, you will never receive loss due to it. So, it is always better to do INTELLIGENT/ SMART GUESSING than BLIND GUESSING!

4.     By Focusing on Calculation

It is commonly seen that most of the students do not get the right answer in the estimated time because they make silly calculation mistakes such as doing addition or multiplication incorrectly. To prevent such errors, you need to focus on the calculation in hand. You should do such calculation on paper rather than in thoughts.
