Hi Sonika
Glad to hear you once again,
Weightage for each unit in physics of previous years NEET are arranged in a tabular form for you along with the number of questions and their weightage. A total of 45 questions are asked from Physics.
Unit | Number of Questions | Total Marks | Weightage Percentage |
Electrodynamics | 10 | 40 | 22.22% |
Heat & Thermodynamics | 5 | 20 | 11.11% |
Mechanics | 13 | 52 | 28.89% |
Modern Physics | 3 | 12 | 6.67% |
Optics | 5 | 20 | 11.11% |
SHM & Waves | 4 | 16 | 8.89% |
Hope this might helps you.
