How the NEET PG Paper Changed (2020–2026)
- 2020: 300 questions for 1,200 marks in 3 hours 30 minutes, the last NEET PG of that size.
- 2021 to 2023: 200 questions for 800 marks in the same 3 hours 30 minutes, with +4 and −1 marking.
- 2024 and 2025: still 200 questions, but in five time-locked sections of 40 questions and 42 minutes each, with no going back to a closed section.
- 2026 onwards: 180 questions for 720 marks, in five sections of 36 questions and 42 minutes each. Every older paper has more questions than you will face, so practise by section.
What a NEET PG Paper Looks Like
The NEET PG 2025 PDF is a memory-based paper rebuilt from candidates’ recall of the 3 August 2025 exam. It has 200 single-best-answer questions with four options each, for 800 marks in 3 hours 30 minutes with +4 and −1 marking. Questions from 19 subjects are mixed through the paper, each one labelled with its subject, and the full answer key is printed at the end.
These four are from the 2025 memory-based paper, with answers from the key printed in it.

How to Use NEET PG Previous Year Papers?
- Practise in 42-minute blocks. NEET PG 2026 had 36 questions in each 42-minute section, which is 70 seconds a question. Split older papers into blocks of 36 and time each block.
- Guess only after ruling options out. With +4 and −1, a blind guess among four options averages +0.25 marks. Ruling out one option raises that to about +0.67, and ruling out two to +1.5.
- Start with 2025 and 2024, since they are the only papers here with time-locked sections. Use the 2022 and 2023 subject PDFs to revise one subject at a time.
- Plan for August 2027. About nine months remain. Two subject papers a week covers all 34 subject PDFs from 2022 and 2023 before the 2027 bulletin, expected in July 2027.
