It is said that you must have a good study plan in order to excel in NEET 2020.
However, every student is different and each one you have different capacity to understand and learn a topic. Hence, it is important that a student should prepare the study plan as per their own need and stick to it. Now, there are various factors which one should take into consideration while preparing a study plan durung the last 3 months like if you are an early riser or a night owl, which topics you need to work on, etc.
Remember that half-baked efforts is not going to help in qualifying a national level exam like NEET. Hence, you must alreaady start preparing for the exam and have a committed mindset towards pursuing a medical course.
How to Start Preparation for NEET 2020?
Assuming that you are studying in Class 12th, your fundamentals must be fresh and your concepts should be clear. It is really important that candidates must have a strong hold of the concepts of Class 11th and 12th. NEET paper covers 97 chapters of Physics, Chemistry, Botany & Zoology and note that the syllabus is very vast. Not to scare you but hard work and determination is needed not only for NEET but to succeed in life as well.
Now, before you proceed to start the preparation, get familiar with NEET 2020 syllabus and then make a move.
3 Months Study Plan for NEET 2020
Once you have checked the syllabus, seggregate the topics into three sections – Easy, Moderate and difficulty. Based on the segregation of the difficulty level of the topic, you can then prepare a study plan which is best suited for you. Below we have provided a study plan which you may refer to for exam preparation. You can also edit / update it accordingly as per your need.

Mock Test
Apart from studying as per the study plan / time table, you must take mock test. Analyse your performance with every mock test like topics which were difficult for you, any formula or law which is difficult for you to remember. Give the same mock test again and compare it with previous time.

Manage your Time well
In NEET exam. about 600+ marks will land you a good government medical college. There are a toal of 180 questions in the entrance exam, howvever, if you are attempting minimum 150-155 questions then there shall be a high chance for you to get a good medical college.
The number of good attempts in each section shall be:
| Name of the subject | Good attempts |
| Physics | 35 out of 45 |
| Chemistry | 38-40 out of 45 |
| Biology | 80 out of 90 |
How to Manage your time for exam?
It is best advised that you should spend at least 10-15 minutes at least carefully reading NEET 2020 question paper. You may attempt the direct questions at first as the chances for you to score higher marks in the first half of the exam. Spend the rest of the time for solving most difficult part of the examination. As per the reviews of the students over the years, Physics is said to be most difficult and calculative, hence, you may spend the last 80 minutes of the exam solving questions from Physics.
Chemistry is generally one of the most scoring areas in NEET exam. In this section, you will get both calculative and direct questions. Generally the questions are directly asked from NCERT, hence, it is best that you should have a good hold on NCERT only then move to other books for solving previous year papers.
Avoid These Mistakes During Preparation
These are some of the common mistaked which a candidate do while preparing for the entrance exam –
- Avoiding NCERT books.
- Taking reference from too many books.
- Not using time for self study.
- Not using a well prepared time table for studying.
- Ignoring the errors made while solving a question and moving on to the next question.
- No self analysis of preparation like how much are you improving each day.
- Not solving previous year paper or taking a mock test.
