NEET Topper 2024 Interview AIR 1, Taijas Singh
Careers360: Congratulations on your NEET 2024 results! How are your feelings about this achievement?
Taijas: I am thrilled that I cracked NEET. I was shocked when I checked the NEET answer keys. The feeling hasn’t sunk in yet.
Careers360: Tell us something about yourself. Where did you complete your schooling and what about your family?
Taijas: I did my schooling at Yadavindra Public School, Mohali till Class 10 and Class 10+2 from Guru Nanak Public School, Sector 36-D, Chandigarh. The inspiration to take medicine as a career came from my parents since they are both doctors. I have an elder sister who is pursuing BBA.
Careers360: What motivated you to choose medicine as a career? When did you decide to become a doctor?
Taijas: Like I said my parents have been my inspiration. In Class 10, I decided to take medical as a stream and got serious about pursuing it in the future.
Do check out:
Careers360: Is this your first attempt?
Taijas: Yes, it was my first attempt.
Careers360: How much time did you devote to self-study?
Taijas: First, I decided to prepare a day-wise NEET study plan. Also, I divided the time I wanted to give to each section. I never gave myself pressure.
Careeres360: What do you think is better coaching or self-study?
Taijas: First comes the coaching because there, you get a proper direction to prepare since you cannot do it by yourself. But yes, it is also important how well you revise the topics that you study daily.
Careers360: How was the NEET UG preparation different from the early days to just a month before the exam?
Taijas: I was extremely cool about my preparation in the beginning, however, I felt a little stressed after my board exams. So I started giving more time to studies during the last month.
Careers360: What was your exam day strategy? What was the roughest and the easiest section, according to you?
Taijas: My exam day strategy is to keep calm and not let the exam stress take over my brain. Also to complete the questions I find easy at the first and the hard ones at the end. I solved Zoology at the beginning. I found Bootony tough in the NEET 2024 question paper, as well as section B of Physics.
Careers360: Which college is your dream college for studying medicine? Which specialisation would you be interested in?
Taijas: AIIMS, New Delhi is my dream college. I either want to be a cardiologist or a radiologist, however, I will decide after I complete my MBBS.
Careers360: To whom do you attribute your successful NEET topper journey?
Taijas: I want to dedicate my success to my parents, my entire family and my teachers.
Careers360: What would you suggest to future NEET aspirants in terms of preparation, attitude, etc?
Taijas: My message to future NEET aspirants is to focus completely on the NCERT and what they are studying in school. All sections in NEET exam are mostly based on NCERT.

Hope this helps,

Hello there,
If you are planning to appear for NEET in 2025, and continue you education after 2 years of passing, it wouldn't be possible. Your application, score and rank of the 2025 exam will not be counted after a year or two. In this case, you have to re-appear for the NEET Exam in 2027.
I hope this information suits you well.
Good Luck.
