Answer latershould we study frog and earthworm for neet 2020.. they are not included in syllabus right but two questions were asked from frog part in neet 2017..
Hi
Hi
Although, frog and earthworm are not included in NEET syllabus of biology, in your NEET syllabus there is only brief account on the digestive, circulatory, respiratory, nervous and reproductive for cockroach only.
But it has been seen that many times questions in NEET have been asked from earthworm and frog, for example in NEET 2017 questions were asked from frog.
So it's better if you study , frog and earthworm as well for your neet examination. Thus, you should go through frog and earthworm .
Thank you
what is the cutoff in Delhi for NEET in government medical college
Hello
You have not mentioned the category you belong to so I am assuming you from general category if you belong to any other category then do let me know in comment
In neet 2019, 613 marks was the lowest marks that was required for general category for getting a seat in government medical college under Delhi state quota and it was for Lady Hardinge Medical College, New Delhi
But cut off marks keeps changing every year depending upon various factors like number of students that appeared in the exam, kind of marks obtained by them , toughness level of the examination etc.
So , you should try to get at least around 650 marks to be on the safer side in your neet examination to get a seat in Government Medical College in Delhi
