NEET 2026

How to Best Utilise 180 Minutes

Understanding the NEET 2026  Exam Time Structure

– 180 questions – 180 minutes – Physics, Chemistry, Biology (Botany + Zoology)

The Core Principle: Control the Clock, Don’t Chase It

– Deciding the order before the exam – Sticking to time blocks – Letting go of time-consuming questions early

Subject-Wise Time Allocation:  What Works Best

– Read questions carefully – Avoid overthinking – Keep momentum high

– Physical Chemistry: Calculate only if the setup is quick – Organic & Inorganic: Trust your preparation

– Solve direct formula-based questions first – Skip long numericals initially – Come back only if time permits

Biology: 80-90 minutes

Chemistry: 40-45 minutes

Physics: 45-50 minutes

The Two-Round Approach: Aakash-Recommended Method

Round 1: Speed + Accuracy  (First 140–150 minutes) – Attempt only the questions you are confident about – Skip doubtful or lengthy ones immediately – Do not “try” questions in Round 1 This builds confidence and secures marks early.

The Two-Round Approach: Aakash-Recommended Method

Round 2: Smart Risk (Last 30–40 minutes) – Revisit skipped questions – Attempt only those where elimination works – Avoid emotional decision-making This approach is central to expert-led NEET planning.

OMR and Last 10 Minutes:  Stay Calm, Stay Clean

– Fill the OMR in small batches – Keep the last 10 minutes only for checking – Avoid changing answers unless 100% sure
