Hi

Numericals are the questions where you have to apply the concepts you have learnt in order to solve a question.

Just like how in maths we have formulas and which we have to apply in order to solve questions.

In the same way, for your neet

in physics and chemistry , there are formulas which you have to apply and solve questions and these questions are called numericals .

You can get an idea of numericals from neet previous year question papers , you can  download it by going through our page for which the link is given below

To help you further,

Here's a brief a neet exam pattern

-----------------------) Neet examination is conducted for a total of 720 marks

• 45 questions from Physics,

• 45 questions from Chemistry

• 90 questions  from your biology ( botany+ zoology)

For neet 2021,

The examination pattern was changed a little bit i. e in order to give relaxation considering covid , number of questions were increased from 180 to 200 , but out of that 200 only 180 questions were to be attempted as shown below:-

Now,

For NEET 2022 ,

It's possible that examination pattern may go back to normal i.e it will have only 180 questions. Or NTA may keep the same examination pattern as to that of NEET 2021 i. e will have 200 questions in which 180 have to be attempted, considering disturbance in studies caused this year due to covid. For exact examination pattern we need to wait for the release of NEET 2022 information brochure .

-----------------------) Duration of examination is 3 hours.

-----------------------) Marking scheme:-

• 4 marks will be awarded to you for every correct answer

• there is negative marking of one mark for every wrong answer
