Greetings Readers
We all saw,heard and experienced what NEET 2017 results and counselings brought for us. Drastically changed marks v/s rank ratio, new cutoffs for every college, a real all India single NEET exam for all states, results of giving an easier level paper. Also seen were shattering of many expectations, confusions regarding probable colleges one would get amidst the new ranks and cutoffs and many more probelms.
Although if you see this scenario from another perspective, it was a ‘reality check’ for a lot of aspirants out there. All previous trends, cutoffs, prediction were outdone by this change in difficulty level of paper and introduction of NEET as the single exam for students from all states of India.
The important thing is that one must be prepared for any difficulty level or type of questions that come, as nothing is certain here no matter how much it looks like. In NEET-1 2016, we had probably the toughest Physics section in NEET, till then. A lot of people lost their cool, ending up in a lot of negative marking in Physics and less time left for the other two sections. No matter how difficult the paper is, you got to give your best and avoid wasting time in questions you believe( this instinct is something to develop) are not worth your time.
Similarly, in NEET 2017 we all know the level of the paper went quite easy that a lot of people were getting 550+ easily as compared to previous years. JEE Advanced 2017 had a similar trend as well. Then came the results which were a shocker to a lot of aspirants. Easier papers, though seem good can prove disastrous because even a few marks can change your ranks by hundreds. So no matter how easy the paper seems, accuracy and good attempting is a must.
As for individual subjects it can be said that NCERT book keeps it dominance in the Biology questions and 80–85 questions come directly from it, so better try understanding each line and concept from it rather than rote learning some irrelevant stuff mentioned in coaching institute modules.
For Physics and Chemistry stuff doesn’t change much and one must be prepared for whatever the examiner’s throw at you, with difficulty level changing every year.
