The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) UG 2025, one of India’s most crucial entrance exams for aspiring doctors, will be held today, May 4. Conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA), the exam serves as a gateway to undergraduate medical courses across the country and is a defining moment for lakhs of students dreaming of a career in medicine.
NEET 2025 exam will be held on Sunday, May 4, 2025, from 2 pm to 5 pm.
Stay calm, revise smartly
As the countdown begins, candidates are urged to stay composed and focus on strategic revision. Harpreet Singh, Director at Unacademy, Lajpat Nagar, advises students to avoid last-minute panic and instead stick to self-prepared notes. “A relaxed yet disciplined mindset can go a long way in improving performance,” he says. Staying positive and spending time with family or friends can help ease pre-exam stress.
What’s new in NEET UG 2025?
While the total number of questions remains unchanged at 180—covering Physics, Chemistry, Zoology, and Botany—this year’s exam brings a key change: the duration has been reduced from 200 minutes to 180 minutes. This makes time management more critical than ever. Candidates should plan how much time they’ll spend on each section and avoid getting stuck on difficult questions.
Smart revision over new material
Experts strongly recommend revising familiar topics rather than reading new material or watching lecture videos at the last minute. Going over self-made notes helps with quicker recall and builds confidence. Avoid cramming—it only increases confusion and anxiety.
Subject-wise strategy for exam day
Biology (Zoology + Botany): Start with Biology, which is usually the most scoring and less time-consuming. Aim to complete this section in 40–50 minutes.
Physics: Begin with numerical questions, then move to theoretical ones. This saves time and reduces pressure.
Chemistry: Focus on organic and inorganic chemistry first, as they typically include direct and easy-to-solve questions.
Beware of negative marking
NEET UG follows a negative marking system, so avoid guesswork. Answer only the questions you're sure about. Skip tricky ones initially and revisit them if time allows. Stick to your time plan for each subject and keep at least 10 minutes at the end to review your answers.
