There is a clear indication that one module supersedes others – Classroom Coaching. Our research brought out the fact as to how much a student prepares to appear for the NEET. For the ease of analysis, we collected data on AIR top 100 of NEET for the year 2022. Since we could gather information of only the top 70 students, we compared these 70 top rankers out of which 54 students took just one type of coaching, which is either a classroom programme or a distance learning programme offered by coaching centres. As many as 16 top rankers opted to go for more than one coaching institute. The next 10 students took only help from distance education and 11 students took classroom as well as distance coaching to prepare for NEET UG.
