SMFWBEE previous year question papers of the State Medical Faculty of West Bengal (SMFWB) are hard to find because candidates cannot take the question booklet home, so this page has one PDF to download: a memory-based 2021 paper with 45 recalled Physics, Biology and Chemistry questions and an answer under each. The 2022 page gives that year’s pattern but no paper. SMFWBEE is now a 3-hour OMR test of 100 one-mark questions (Physics 25, Chemistry 25, Biology 50), so use the 2021 questions for topic practice.

How the SMFWBEE Paper Changed (2021–2022)
- 2021: a 1-hour test with 2 marks per question, worth 24 marks in Physics, 26 in Chemistry and 50 in Biology. Because of the pandemic, candidates could take it online from home or offline at a district centre.
- 2022 onwards: a 3-hour offline OMR test of 100 one-mark questions, with Physics 25, Chemistry 25 and Biology 50, and no negative marking.
- What it means for you: the 2021 questions are still useful topic practice, but a full paper now has twice as many questions and three times as long to answer them.
What the SMFWBEE 2021 Paper Looks Like
The 2021 PDF is a 15-page memory-based paper put together from questions candidates shared after the 3 October 2021 test. It is incomplete: it has 12 Physics, 22 Biology and 11 Chemistry questions, in that order, each with four options and an answer printed below it. These answers come from the compiler, not from SMFWB.
| Section | Questions recalled |
|---|---|
| Physics | Q1–12 (12) |
| Biology | Q1–22 (22) |
| Chemistry | Q1–11 (11) |

Biology carried half the marks in 2021 (50 of 100) and still does today, and it is also the longest part of the recalled paper, so give it half of your practice time.
How to Use SMFWBEE Previous Year Papers?
- Keep each question under 2 minutes. 100 questions in 3 hours gives you 108 seconds each, which is plenty. Use the spare time to recheck your OMR bubbles.
- Answer every question. There is no negative marking, so a guess can only help. Never leave a bubble empty.
- Split practice 1:1:2. Physics and Chemistry have 25 questions each and Biology 50, so spend as much time on Biology as on the other two together.
- Time the 2021 paper at about 80 minutes. Its 45 recalled questions at today’s pace of 108 seconds come to 81 minutes. Then check each answer against your Class 11 and 12 books, since the printed answers are not official.
- Be ready before the notice. SMFWB has not notified SMFWBEE 2026 yet. In 2025 the form opened on 2 June and the test was on 27 July, less than two months later, so finish your syllabus before the bulletin comes out.
