    I have seen recent updated information of NEET-2, but still I have some doubt, some says as this exam is going to conduct by CBSE, so their pattern of que(level) should be equal to that of NEET-1, are they correct regarding this, or we must prepare ourselves slightly harder thinking Questions can be tough too (other than CBSE board).

    • Sarvgyan Team says:

      Neha,
      We have given the main topics that will be covered in NEET examination. As you know that the NEET is going to continue again after a long duration. So may be the syllabus changed. But As we have faced the NEET 1 (AIPMT) and syllabus covered in that exam is declared by CBSE but only for AIPMT. We have given the syllabus on that point of view. All detailed syllabus will be given when CBSE will announced the details of NEET. So stay with us for latest updates for syllabus and other details.
