Hi,

NEET Physics comprises six major units from class 11th and class 12th physics syllabus. Most of the students find this subject as the toughest among the other two subjects because it consists of a wide variety of numerical problems, theoretical and application-based concepts.

Solving numerical questions in physics can turn out to be a nightmare for many students as a result they generally avoid its practice and accordingly they prioritize their focus on other subjects with which they are unable to score well in NEET Physics that ultimately results in the lowering of their final NEET score.

Paper Analysis for NEET Physics

In Physics, the most important topic is Mechanics and carries the maximum weightage. Topics that are included in Electrodynamics will offer students with 9-10 questions. The difficulty level of this section will be higher in accordance with the exam pattern. Maximum questions involved on this subject comprise lengthy calculations.

In 2019, NEET Physics section wa moderate in terms of difficulty and length. Many questions were formula based.

Most of the questions were from NCERT syllabus, around 60% of the NEET paper to be precise.

Questions were asked from class 11 and 12 equally from the topics namely- Mechanics and modern Physics dominated with around 50% of the section.

Questions asked from topics such as Magnetic Effect of Current and Current Electricity were easy.

Note: In order to meet NEET Cut off and qualified score, it is important that candidates must prioritize the topics carrying high weightage. The major topics from which the maximum questions asked are- Wave optics, Electrodynamics, Modern Physics, KTG & Thermodynamics, Semi-conductors.
