How many hours NEET toppers study?
NEET toppers' study hours can vary based on individual preferences, learning styles, and existing levels of preparation. However, most NEET toppers adopt a balanced and focused study routine rather than just counting hours. It's not solely about the number of hours but the quality of study time that matters. According to NEET 2024 topper AIR 1 Taijas Singh, 'dedicating most of the time to study in the last month of NEET preparation is important to succeed'. NEET 2024 topper Mridul Manya Ananad (AIR 1) tells that while studying at Aakash institute they use to have test everyday in the same pattern as NEET question paper. This helped in analyzing mistakes and preparing accordingly.
NEET 2025: How do toppers prepare for the exam?
Candidates seeking effective NEET preparation tips can read some below-listed strategies from previous years' NEET toppers.
NEET topper study routine: Make a feasible timetable
Making a systematic timetable for NEET 2025 preparation is one of the key tips given by most of the toppers. The proper NEET 2025 study time table helps the candidates in boosting their preparation. To emerge with flying colours in NEET 2025, candidates must know what, when and how to study. Thus, making a comprehensive and able-to-do timetable is a must for NEET 2025 preparations.
When asked about the NEET preparation strategy, NEET 2024 toper Aditya Kumar Panda (AIR 1) said, 'No there was no such fixed study schedule or time distribution to a particular subject. Whatever subject I used to feel I was weak, I used to study that subject. But yes overall, I used to study from 6 AM to 12 PM daily'. Another NEET topper 2024 Palansha Agarwal (AIR 1) stated that, 'I used to wake up at 3:30 and study up till 6:30. Then I used to go to school and return to school by 3 PM. Then from 4 PM to 9 PM, I used to study with regular small break intervals.'
NEET toppers study strategy: Self-study is important
Self-study plays an important role in the success of NEET toppers, as it allows for personalized learning, deep focus and better time management. Toppers often emphasize the importance of self-study because it gives them the flexibility to revise difficult concepts at their own pace, rather than relying solely on external coaching. As per one of the NEET 2024 toppers, ' just one month before the NEET exam, I devoted 10 to 12 hours daily to prepare for NEET 2024. I used to take one NEET mock test daily which helped me feel better on the exam day.' As per NEET 2024 topper Prachita, 'Apart from coaching, I used to dedicate 5-6 hours to self-study, however, the hours varied on the topic. I never emphasised the number of hours I needed to study but to understand the concepts properly.'
Another NEET 2024 topper, Shruti Agarwal from Allen Kota says, 'I use to do self-study for around 4 to 6 hours daily after attempting online classes through Allen Digital'. Tanishka, another NEET 2024 topper from Allen Institute said, 'self-study is very important. When I use to have classes, I use to study for at least 5 to 6 hours a day.'
NEET preparation tips by toppers: Revision is a must
NEET toppers consistently highlight the importance of regular revision for NEET as a crucial part of their preparation strategy. With the extensive NEET syllabus, continuous revision helps solidify concepts, formulas and important facts, ensuring they remain fresh in memory. When asked about the importance of revision, NEET topper 2024 Mridul Manya Ananad (AIR 1) from Aakash Institute said, ' I focused on the revision after my board ended. So, if I study NCERT in the evening, the next day I use to solve 20 questions. This way, I was able to revise the concepts properly. Overall, my revision strategy in Aakash was very regressive.' Shruti Agarwal, a NEET 2024 topper from Allen Institute emphasizes that on doing revision. She added, 'Before exam, solving one test paper daily was a part of my revision strategy'.
NEET topper study routine: Study from quality material
NEET toppers emphasize the importance of studying from quality material as a cornerstone of their preparation routine. They often select NCERT textbooks for Biology, Physics, and Chemistry, which are highly recommended for conceptual clarity. When asked about the study material for the medical entrance exam preparation, NEET 2023 topper Parth Khandelwal (AIR 10) said, 'NCERT is the best book to prepare for the NEET exam. Aspirants should give equal focus to Physics and Chemistry NCERT along with the Biology preparations. As per NEET topper 2024 Aditya Kumar Panda, 'NCERT books are undoubtedly the best source for your NEET preparation. Along with the NCERT books, as I was enrolled in the Aakash Institute, I studied from the study material they provided. Apart from that, I used to solve questions from various other sources.' A topper from Allen Institute said, 'I studied from the material provided from my coaching. It helped me to prepare for NEET in an efficient manner'.
Thus, conceptual clarity is more important to solve the tricky multiple-choice questions (MCQs) asked in the NEET 2025. Allocating proper time to all three subjects asked in NEET 2025 which as NEET Physics, Chemistry and Biology will help in making the concepts clear and strong.

One of the most effective NEET preparation tips shared by toppers is to regularly practice previous year's question papers and mock tests. Solving NEET mock test helps students familiarize themselves with the exam pattern, question types and the level of difficulty they can expect in the actual exam. As per one of the NEET 2024 topper's, ' I used to take one NEET mock test daily which helped me feel better on the exam day.' Prachita, NEET 2024 topper said, 'solving NEET test series is very important as it allows to identify mistakes and learn time management.'
Thus, solving previous years question papers and mock tests helps in evaluating the preparation levels of the candidates familiarised with the NEET 2025 exam pattern. Candidates are advised to practice completing the mock tests before time to develop a proper time-management strategy.
NEET topper study routine: Stay calm while attempting the paper
Panic is natural for candidates about to attempt the undergraduate medical exam but the truth is fear only lowers the confidence. One must find ways to relax their mind while preparing for the NEET 2025 exam.
Taijas Singh, NEET 2024 topper (AIR 1) says, 'My exam day strategy is to keep calm and not let the exam stress take over my brain.' Another NEET 2024 topper Divyansh said, 'as I had health issues, I advised myself to relax and reminded myself that if due to panic, I forget everything in the last three days, I am not going to be a doctor. I played football to unwind.'
Therefore, NEET toppers attribute their success to a combination of strategic planning, disciplined execution and smart study techniques. Key tips such as consistent self-study, focused revision, practicing previous years' papers and relying on quality study material form the foundation of their preparation. By following these proven methods and maintaining a structured approach, aspirants can significantly enhance their chances of excelling in NEET and securing top ranks.

Yes, it is indeed possible to pursue a career in the medical field and become a healthcare professional without qualifying for the NEET UG exam in India. While NEET UG is mandatory for admission to MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery) and BDS (Bachelor of Dental Surgery) programs, there are numerous other medical and allied health science courses that do not require this entrance examination.
Several Bachelor of Science (BSc) degree programs offer excellent career prospects in healthcare. These include BSc Nursing, BSc Biotechnology, BSc Microbiology, BSc Biochemistry, BSc Medical Laboratory Technology, BSc Radiology and Imaging Technology, BSc Occupational Therapy, and BSc Physiotherapy. These courses focus on specific aspects of healthcare and provide the necessary skills for various roles in hospitals, clinics, diagnostic centers, research institutions, and pharmaceutical companies. Admissions to these programs are generally based on merit in the Class 12th board examinations, and some colleges may conduct their own entrance tests.
In addition to these degree courses, there are also diploma and vocational courses in paramedical fields such as Medical Assistant, Pharmacy Assistant, Operation Theatre Technician, Dialysis Technician, and various other specializations.

Preparing for NEET 2025 effectively involves a strategic approach rather than relying on "potions." Success in this highly competitive examination comes from consistent hard work, understanding the syllabus, and smart study techniques. However, if we interpret "potions" metaphorically as essential ingredients for NEET success, here are some crucial ones:
Firstly, a thorough understanding of the NEET 2025 syllabus is paramount. This includes knowing all the topics from Physics, Chemistry, and Biology (Botany and Zoology) that are part of the Class 11 and 12 NCERT curriculum. Familiarize yourself with the weightage of different chapters to prioritize your studies effectively.
Secondly, consistent and dedicated study habits are indispensable. Create a realistic and detailed timetable, allocating sufficient time to each subject based on your strengths and weaknesses. Regular study sessions, rather than last-minute cramming, will aid in better concept retention and reduce stress.
Thirdly, mastering the NCERT textbooks is crucial. These books form the foundation of the NEET exam. Read them thoroughly, understand the concepts, diagrams, and solve all the in-text questions and examples. Supplement your understanding with additional reference books for practice and deeper insights.
Fourthly, regular practice with Previous Years' Question Papers (PYQs) and mock tests is essential. Solving PYQs will give you an idea of the exam pattern, the type of questions asked, and the difficulty level. Mock tests simulate the actual exam environment, helping you improve your time management skills and identify your weak areas for improvement.
Fifthly, effective revision techniques are vital for long-term retention. Use methods like mind maps, flashcards, and short notes for quick recall. Regular revision of all subjects and important concepts, especially formulas, reactions, and diagrams, is key to performing well.
Sixthly, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is often overlooked but plays a significant role. Ensure you get adequate sleep, eat nutritious meals, and engage in regular physical activity to keep your mind and body in optimal condition for studying.
Finally, staying positive and managing stress throughout your preparation journey is crucial for your mental well-being and overall performance. Believe in your hard work, take breaks when needed, and seek support from teachers, mentors, and peers.
By focusing on these "ingredients" – understanding the syllabus, consistent study, mastering NCERT, regular practice, effective revision, a healthy lifestyle, and a positive mindset – you can significantly enhance your preparation for NEET 2025.

The exact NEET 2025 cutoff marks for the Delhi state quota for the SC category will be released after the NEET 2025 exam and the subsequent counselling process. These cutoffs depend on various factors such as the difficulty level of the exam, the number of applicants, the number of available seats in Delhi's medical colleges under the state quota, and the overall performance of candidates belonging to the SC category in Delhi.
However, based on the previous year's trends and expected patterns, we can provide a likely range. For the NEET 2024 admissions under the Delhi state quota, the cutoff rank for the SC category in government medical colleges varied.
Going by the general trends and expected qualifying percentiles, the NEET 2025 qualifying marks for the SC category might fall in the range of 161-127. However, the marks needed to secure a seat in a government medical college under the Delhi state quota for the SC category are usually much higher than the qualifying marks. Based on the previous year's data and expert analysis, a safe score to aim for could be in the range of 450 to 550 or even higher to have a good chance of getting a government medical seat under the Delhi state quota for the SC category.
It's important to remember that these are estimations. The actual cutoff for NEET 2025 for the Delhi state quota and the SC category can vary. Keep an eye on the official announcements by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) and the Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS), Delhi, for the precise cutoff details after the NEET 2025 results are declared.
