Spend some time reading NCERT line by line. Highlight key facts while taking notes. Following the completion of NCERT, you should study extra study material in the form of books and preparation websites. Also, be sure to take note of any references you find in these sources.
Diagrams are an instrumental part of NEET 2024 preparation. Be sure to memorize every Biology diagram so you can comprehend the topic more effectively. Retention of information is easier with pictures.
In physics, it is essential to solving as many questions as possible. It is also recommended to create a spreadsheet containing all the formulas and laws discussed in each chapter.
To learn chemistry effectively, you need to memorize chemical equations and diagrams. As soon as you have completed each chemistry chapter, make a sheet containing chemical equations and formulas of that chapter.
