NEET 2020 is hitting around the corner and less than 50 days left for the D day. You are not left with much time to go through with whole syllabus. So, how smartly can you prepare in this time to maximize your scores in upcoming NEET exam by putting less effort?
The first thing to know is that NTA does not allocate any weightage to any chapter and you should try to learn and understand all chapters of all subjects. So if you know clearly which chapter will be important and fetch you maximum marks in the exam, then it will be easier for you to take the right route in completing whole syllabus smartly.
Well our team of subject experts has analysed the pattern of the past years’ papers of NEET, to give you clear idea of syllabus by breaking chapters into 4 groups based on the efforts required to learn and score in the exam as well as the weightage of each chapter.
We will consider the chapter which fall in quadrant 1 and 2 in the above figure. These chapters cover most of the syllabus of NEET and can fetch you the maximum marks in the exam.
