Hello durba.. I think self study is the key to success for neet examination. You just need proper guidance for that. Firstly about biology- you have to remember that ncert is the most important book. Reviewing the last papers trend no Ques has came out of ncert. You have to be consistent in reading it and more importantly understanding the concepts of it specially portions like plant and human physiology, genetics, reproduction. Many you tube videos are available for which you can understand the chapter without any high fee payment. For chemistry- 1.Physical chemistry : understanding the concept and having the formulas on your tips which help you achieve accuracy. You need to practice as many questions you can and revisiting them for analysing your mistakes. 2. Inorganic chemistry: for this also the ncert is enough. Even in neet 2020 direct Ques came from ncert line. Chapters like chemical bonding, P block , co ordination chemistry hold a lot of importance. 3. Organic chemistry: For organic I will suggest you to make flowchart to easily grasp the concepts. They not only help you to remember things easily but also help you to connect it to different chapters. Give a lot of importance to the ncert reactions. Learn them by heart. And finally solve lots and lots of question (PYQ and ncert exemplar are very important). For physis the concept is the key. Remember solving a lot of questions without understanding the logic behind them is a waste of time. So you firstly need to build your concepts and practice as many questions.
Always remember that neet exam can be cracked with accuracy and speed. Never compromise on these two.Ncert books hold a lot of importance not only in neet but also in your board exams. Practice makes a man perfect so solve Ques of all the subjects. And merely solving ques will not help you but you need to revisit your mistakes for enhancing your performance.
Hope this might have helped and all the best for your future.. And focus on your self study!
Hi Durba
Yes, why not? Self study can help you to crack NEET. But self study isn't sufficient enough, you need to work hard as well. If you aspire to become a doctor, work for it. Since, you are currently in 10th standard, you can start your preparation for NEET as soon as you reach class 11th.

The first strategy to clear this competitive exam is to be thorough with NCERT and its concepts. Biology is a very scoring subject but needs a lot of revision. And the questions are directly NCERT based in NEET exam.
For physics and chemistry, you should solve as many numerical as you can. Consistency is the key to success. All the three subjects should be treated equally. Revise your concepts and learn from your mistakes.
Along with your self study, you should solve previous year's papers and go through e resources as well. You can prepare for the exam and solve sample papers from the links provided below -
