Intro
00:00:00In this video, Dr. Special answers the most frequently asked questions regarding NEET UG. The questions cover various topics such as how to study effectively, managing studies with coaching or as a dropper/fresher, creating a timetable, and studying for long hours.
Self Study & Coaching
00:00:21When preparing for an exam, it's important to remember that your journey is not solely dependent on the coaching institute. Create your own timetable and study at your own pace. Utilize the coaching institute as a tool to enhance your studies, but don't rely solely on their provided timetable. Make use of free time outside of classes to maximize studying efforts.
Daily Questions
00:02:49"There is no perfect amount of questions to solve daily, but on average, you should aim to solve 100-200 biology questions per day. For physics, set a timer for 30 minutes and try to solve at least 25 questions within that time frame. Chemistry practice can vary based on your preference. Bio and physics are crucial subjects for scoring well in the exam."
Study in Partial Drop
00:05:00Studying in a partial drop can be challenging as you have to prepare for both your university exams and NEET. It is important to accept the difficulty and focus on studying consistently. Prioritize NEET preparation over university exams, dedicating time closer to the exam dates. Passing the exams is achievable by solving previous year question papers and focusing on important topics. However, if aiming for a good rank, start studying from day one of MBBS.
Boards With NEET
00:06:32To manage your board exam preparation while also preparing for NEET, focus on giving 100% to your NEET preparation. Allocate only three to four weeks for board exam preparation in both class 11th and 12th. Avoid spending more than two months on boards as it may set you back in the game. If you haven't prepared well for boards, start focusing on NEET instead. Whether you are in CBSE or state board, thorough NEET preparation will make the boards easier.
Improve GT Scores
00:07:48Studying more and creating a mistake book are effective ways to improve GT scores. The mistake book helps in noting down mistakes made in mock tests or important questions, which can be reviewed before future tests. Starting test preparation early allows for thorough reading, revision, and solidification of topics. Using previous year question books like Oswald's 36 years' collection is recommended as they contain relevant questions from past exams along with trend analysis by chapter.
How Many GTs?
00:09:28Number of Grand Tests "As many as possible" is the ideal answer. It is recommended to give at least 10 years' worth of previous grand tests, simulating the real exam multiple times. The goal is to feel like you are giving a mock test during the actual exam, reducing stress and improving performance.
Approach for Taking Tests "Give all your mock tests like they are your main paper." By treating every mock test seriously and considering it as important as the final exam, you can reduce stress levels and perform better. Take each main paper with a similar mindset to that of a mock test.
Test Paper Analysis
00:10:20After completing your Grant test, it is crucial to analyze your performance. Identify and note down the questions you made mistakes in for each subject. Focus on weak areas such as gravitation and nuclear physics. Revise your mistake book to avoid repeating the same errors. If time management is an issue, determine which unit takes up the most time (biology, chemistry or physics) and work on reducing it.
Study For long hours
00:11:29To study for long hours, it is important to build a habit of studying consistently and gradually increase the duration over time. Start by sitting down for a few hours each day and slowly extend the study time. Developing mental willpower is crucial in maintaining focus during these dedicated study sessions.
Youtube Study
00:12:54Preparing for NEET with YouTube "Can I prepare for NEET using just YouTube without any coaching?" The answer is no. While YouTube can be a useful supplementary resource, it is not the ideal platform for studying. It is filled with distractions and its algorithm promotes more watch time rather than focused learning. Additionally, anyone can start teaching on YouTube without proper qualifications or accountability.
Joining a coaching institute offline or online is recommended as they have qualified teachers and provide discipline through structured batches.
Online + Offline coaching
00:14:38Stick to One Source It is important to stick to one coaching institute and revise the material thoroughly. Avoid joining multiple institutes as it can lead to distractions. Trust the institute you have chosen and focus on studying from their modules. Only consider joining another institute if you feel unsatisfied with your current one.
"One Source, Multiple Times" "One source, multiple times" applies not only for NEET PG but also for other exams like LN exam. Whether using Marrow or Dams, what matters is self-study and revisiting the material taught by teachers.
Bonus Q
00:15:49Starting preparation for NEET in class ninth is considered too late. It is recommended to start preparing from as early as class fifth. For NEET UG, the ideal time to begin preparation is in class eleventh. Therefore, it is advised not to waste two years of your life and enjoy your last years before entering the aspirant life.
