5. Follow the tips below:

Keep the following points in mind as you prepare for the NEET 2025 exam:

  • You know yourself better than anyone else, so don't follow a schedule blindly. Do your homework and make changes if necessary.

  • Remember to include breaks. It is critical to take breaks between studies because you cannot study for more than 8 hours at a time. In the long term, not taking breaks will be unproductive.

  • When planning your study schedule, keep in mind the hours of your school and the NEET coaching centre.

  • Plan ahead of time how you'll divide the syllabus into sections and which chapters or topics you'll be studying.

  • Remember to plan your vacations so that you may make the most of your time. 

  • Don't forget to set aside some time for revision. It is important to revise because if you study material but do not revise it, your mind will forget it. To keep the information fresh in your mind, you should go over it again every now and then.


NEET 2025: Tips before Exam Day

  • Do not study anything on the day of the exam. Eat a good breakfast and be ready for the big day. 

  • Adhere to the dress code mentioned in the guidelines. 

  • Pack everything you'll need for the exam, including your NEET Admit Card, valid government identification, a face mask, hand gloves, a pocket-size hand sanitiser, and a clear water bottle. 

  • Carry no items that are prohibited. 

  • Arrive at the examination centre well ahead of your scheduled reporting time. Given the circumstances, expect long lines at the entrance for temperature checks and other activities. 

  • Please adhere to all social distancing guidelines at all times. 

  • All of these will help candidates have a stress-free experience on the day of the NEET 2025 exam.
