Highlights of NEET 2022:

• CBSE continued with its tradition of 7% ambiguous questions.
• More than half of the paper consisted of direct questions from the NCERT textbooks.
• Overall, questions involved the different level of skills – some being knowledge-based and others being of the analytical type. Questions in physics required knowledge of different concepts and thus were time-consuming. However, there weren’t too many questions based upon diagrams this time.
• One has to agree, a change in trend was witnessed this year as the bar of difficulty level was definitely higher since questions required exceptional calculation skills. While in biology, a major fraction of questions were from Class 11, but in physics and chemistry, questions from both class 11 and 12 syllabi were asked.
