NEET 2020: Paper Analysis

After being postponed twice due to Corona Virus pandemic, the National Testing Agency finally conducted the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test(Ug) 2020, from 2 pm to 5 pm, today. NEET 2020 has been held for over 15 lakh candidates aspiring to pursue medicine.

Over 15 lakh candidates appeared on 3843 exam centres across the country. The conduct of the premier medical entrance exam was in question due to the chaos and backlash created by the global pandemic and the matter landed in the court, but the ministry of education and the National Testing Agency ensured the hon’ble Supreme Court about the safe conduct and enforcement of strict Standard Operating Procedures which paved the way for conduct of examination.

The pen and paper mode examination was taken in a single shift at 155 test cities across India.

Talking to education correspondents of ihoik.com, candidates said that the question paper was moderate. As far as section wise difficulty is concerned, majority agreed on Biology being the easiest section while candidates found Physics as the most difficult, but as compared to previous year, it can still be considered moderate. As per the students Chemistry section was moderately easy, as most of the questions in Physical and Inorganic section were moderate but the questions in Organic section were a bit standard.
In Biology, Botany constituted the majority while questions from Zoology were a bit less in numbers. The paper was well balanced as it covered almost every part of the syllabus and almost every question derived its origin from NCERT barring a few exceptions. Paper of this type increases the chances of selection of average students although the cut off in paper of this nature remains high, usually.

We will upload the detail analysis and answer key as soon as it gets available.
