1. Understand the NEET 2026 Exam Pattern

Before diving into preparation, know your battlefield:

• Subjects: Physics, Chemistry (Inorganic, Organic, Physical), Biology (Botany & Zoology).
• Total Questions: 200 (180 to attempt).
• Marking Scheme: +4 for correct, -1 for incorrect.
• Cutoff Trends: ~50th percentile (varies yearly).

Expert Tip: Focus equally on Biology (360 marks) but don’t neglect Physics and Chemistry.

2. NEET 2026 Preparation Roadmap (2-Year Plan)

Phase 1: Foundation Building (2024–2025)

• NCERT Mastery: Start with NCERT textbooks (Class 11 & 12) for Biology, Chemistry, and Physics.
  • Highlight diagrams, definitions, and examples.
• Daily Habits:
  • Study 5–6 hours daily (increase gradually).
  • Allocate time:
    • Biology: 2 hours (theory + diagrams).
    • Chemistry: 1.5 hours (focus on Organic reactions and Periodic Table trends).
    • Physics: 1.5 hours (practice numericals daily).
• Join a Coaching Batch: Enroll in Convex Classes’ NEET 2026 batch to get structured lectures, study material, and doubt-solving sessions.

Phase 2: Intensive Preparation (2025)

• Advanced Concepts: Move to reference books like:
  • Biology: GRB Bathla’s or Trueman’s Biology.
  • Physics: HC Verma (Basics) → DC Pandey (Advanced).
  • Chemistry: OP Tandon (Physical), MS Chouhan (Organic).
• Mock Tests: Take weekly full-length tests (analyze mistakes).
• Revision: Create chapter-wise notes for last-minute review.

Phase 3: Revision & Speed (Jan–May 2026)

• Solve Previous 10 Years’ Papers: Identify repeating topics (e.g., Genetics in Biology, Electrostatics in Physics).
• Focus on Weak Areas: Use Convex Classes’ doubt clinics to clarify concepts.
• Time Management: Practice solving 180 questions in 3 hours.

3. Subject-Wise Strategies

Biology (360 Marks)

• High-Weightage Topics:
  • Genetics, Human Physiology, Plant Physiology, Ecology.
• Tactics:
  • Memorize diagrams (e.g., human heart, nephron).
  • Use mnemonics (e.g., “Kings Play Chess On Funny Green Squares” for taxonomy).

Chemistry (180 Marks)

• Inorganic: Focus on Periodic Table, Coordination Compounds.
• Organic: Master Name Reactions, IUPAC Nomenclature.
• Physical: Practice Mole Concept, Thermodynamics, Electrochemistry.

Physics (180 Marks)

• Key Chapters: Mechanics, Electrodynamics, Modern Physics.
• Practice 20 Numericals Daily: Use formulas from a consolidated sheet.

4. Time Management Tips

• Daily Schedule (Sample):
  • 6–7 AM: Biology revision.
  • 8–10 AM: Coaching classes (e.g., Convex Classes’ NEET 2026 lectures).
  • 11–1 PM: Physics practice.
  • 3–5 PM: Chemistry (Organic + Inorganic).
  • 6–7 PM: Mock test analysis.
• Weekly Goals:
  • Complete 2 chapters per subject.
  • Revise all formulas on Sundays.
