Your NEET study plan

Turn NCERT Biology into active recall

Read a short section, close the book and explain the process in your own words. Check labels on diagrams and turn missed details into questions.

Connect formulas to practice questions

For Physics and Chemistry, keep a formula beside its units and a worked example. Practice application questions so recall does not replace problem solving.

NEET sample questions

Original practice questions, not official exam papers.

Respiration in plants

Where in the cell does glycolysis take place?

  • Mitochondrial matrix
  • Cytoplasm
  • Nucleus
  • Inner mitochondrial membrane
Check answer

Right. Glycolysis happens in the cytoplasm. The Krebs cycle is the one in the matrix.

Circulation

Which vessel carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart?

  • Pulmonary artery
  • Pulmonary vein
  • Aorta
  • Vena cava
Check answer

Right. The pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium.

Current electricity

A 4 Ω and a 12 Ω resistor are connected in parallel. What is the equivalent resistance?

  • 16 Ω
  • 8 Ω
  • 3 Ω
  • 0.33 Ω
Check answer

Right. 1/R = 1/4 + 1/12 = 4/12, so R = 3 Ω.

NEET questions students ask

What is the NEET UG exam pattern?
180 compulsory questions in 3 hours: 45 each from Physics, Chemistry, Botany and Zoology, for a total of 720 marks.
What is the NEET marking scheme?
Four marks for each correct answer and one mark deducted for each wrong answer. Questions you leave blank get zero.
Is NCERT enough for NEET biology?
NCERT Class 11 and 12 biology is the base of most NEET biology questions, so reading it closely and revising it often matters more than adding extra books.
How does Papyrus help with NEET preparation?
Upload NCERT chapters or your notes. Papyrus writes flashcards line by line, brings them back on schedule, explains diagrams and doubts, and tracks every chapter.
Is Papyrus free for NEET students?
Yes. The Free plan includes goals, the focus timer and streaks. Flashcards from your own PDFs and the AI tutor are part of Pro, at $3.99 a month.
