The National Testing Agency (NTA) conducts the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) for undergraduate (UG) admissions to medical courses every year. NEET (UG) is a highly competitive exam to get admission to various medical and other allied science courses across India. To get a good rank it is essential that the aspirants are thorough with every subject and all possible questions that may be asked in the NEET exam. One-fourth of the NEET questions are from Physics, So, how well you prepare Physics will play a crucial role in your plans to get a good rank in the NEET exam. It is essential for the NEET candidates to know the areas to be focused on beforehand in order to make a winning preparation plan. Analysis of each subject and chapters from which questions were asked in the previous papers will help your preparation plan in a big way.
Here is an analysis of the Class 12 Physics chapter, Current Electricity. The analysis is done for the past 5 years of the NEET Paper from 2017 to 2021. The total number of questions from Physics for the past 5 years is 230. And out of these 230 questions, 17 were from the chapter, Current Electricity. That is, 7.39% of the questions were from Current Electricity. This makes Current Electricity an important chapter from the point of NEET (UG)
Current can be mainly classified into two. Direct Current (DC) and Alternating Current (AC). The chapter, Current Electricity discusses DC current. The AC current is dealt with in the NCERT Class 12 chapter, Alternating Current. Let us see the topics of Current Electricity from which questions were asked in NEET in the last five years.

Wheatstone bridge And Meter Bridge | 1 | 5.88% |
Potentiometer And Its Application | 2 | 11.76% |
Total | 17 | 100% |
The above table shows that studying all the topics of the chapter, Current Electricity, of NCERT Class 12 Physics is essential to cracking NEET with a good score. There were 6 questions from the topic Resistance And Resistivity, in the last five years' NEET Papers. The subtopics coming under Resistance And Resistivity are: The Concept Of Resistance And Resistivity; Colour Coding Of Resistance; The Formula Of Resistance In Terms Of Length, Area And Resistivity; Stretching And Recasting Of A Wire; Temperature Dependence Of Resistance And Resistivity; and Series And Parallel Combination Of Resistance.
All the concepts coming under each topic are essential and students cannot skip concepts as all of them are connected. For example, questions may be a combination of the concept of Power Consumed and the Combination Of Resistors; to solve questions related to the Heating Effect, it is necessary to understand Ohm's Law. To solve circuit related problems KVL and KCL are quite useful.
Example 1 - NEET 2019
Six similar bulbs are connected as shown in the figure with a DC source of emf E, and zero internal resistance.
The ratio of power consumption by the bulbs when 1) all are glowing and 2 ) in the situation when two from section A and one from section B are glowing will be:

Answer:
Assume that each bulb is having a resistance of R ohms.
Case 1- When all the bulbs are glowing

First the equivalent resistance needs to be calculated and then the power consumed. Three resistance of values R in parallel will give a net value of R/3. And the series combination of two resistance of value R/3 will give a net value of 2R/3. So the power consumed by bulbs P1=3E2/2R.
Case 2-

The equivalent resistance of the combination is R/2 + R=3R/2. Power consumed P2=2E2/3R
The ratio P1/P2= 9/4
Example 2 - NEET 2021
Three resistance having resistances r1, r2 and r3 are connected as shown in the given circuit. The ratio i3/i1 of currents in terms of resistances used in the circuit is

Answer:
The concept of KCL and Combination Of Resistance is used to solve the problem. The resistors r2 and r3 are connected in parallel. Therefore voltage across r2 and r3 will be the same.
i2r2=i3r3…….(1)
From KCL
i1=i2+i3…….(2)
From (1) and (2)
(i1-i3)r2=i3r3
i1r2=i3(r2+r3)
i1/i3=(r2+r3)/r2
The Current Electricity chapter is easy to crack and NEET questions were of easy to medium type difficulty level. Understanding the concepts, knowing the basic equations, understanding circuit laws and practising NCERT questions and previous years’ NEET papers would give enough knowledge to crack the NEET questions from the chapter Current Electricity.
On Question asked by student community
First, understand the NEET syllabus clearly for Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. Focus only on the NCERT syllabus, as most NEET questions are directly or indirectly based on NCERT, especially in Biology and Chemistry. Avoid unnecessary reference books at this stage.
Divide your 4 months into phases. In the first 2 months, focus on completing the entire syllabus. Study Biology daily, as it carries the highest weightage. Read NCERT Biology line by line, make short notes, and revise regularly. For Chemistry, give priority to NCERT for Inorganic and Organic Chemistry. Practice basic numericals and reactions consistently. In Physics, focus on understanding concepts and practicing standard questions rather than memorizing formulas.
In the third month, start intensive revision along with topic-wise and full-length mock tests. Analyze each test carefully to identify weak areas and work on them. Improve time management and accuracy during this phase.
In the last month, focus mainly on revision and mock tests. Revise NCERT multiple times, especially Biology diagrams, tables, and examples. Avoid learning new topics at the last moment. Maintain a proper sleep schedule and take short breaks to avoid burnout.
Stay consistent, avoid distractions, and believe in your preparation. Even a few focused hours daily with proper planning can make a big difference. All the best!
Scoring 600+ marks in NEET within 4 months is definitely challenging, especially if you are starting almost from scratch, but it is not impossible. It largely depends on your discipline, daily study hours, clarity of basics, and how smartly you plan your preparation.
First, you need to be very realistic and focused. In 4 months, your main goal should be to strengthen NCERT-based concepts rather than trying to study everything in extreme detail. NEET questions are largely NCERT-oriented, especially in Biology and Chemistry. If you can master NCERT thoroughly, your chances improve significantly.
Biology should be your top priority because it carries the maximum weightage and is comparatively scoring. Read NCERT line by line for both Class 11 and 12. Revise multiple times and practice MCQs daily. Even if Physics feels tough initially, focus on high-weightage and formula-based chapters like Modern Physics, Current Electricity, Semiconductors, Ray Optics, and Laws of Motion. Chemistry can be divided smartly: give more time to Organic and Inorganic NCERT, and practice numericals regularly for Physical Chemistry.
You should ideally study 10–12 focused hours daily with a fixed timetable. Daily revision and weekly full-length mock tests are extremely important. Initially, your mock scores may be low, but what matters is consistent improvement and learning from mistakes. Analyze each test carefully to understand weak areas.
Since you are already enrolled in another college, time management becomes even more important. Try to minimize distractions and use early mornings or late evenings effectively. Avoid too many reference books; stick to NCERT and one reliable question bank.
That said, aiming for 600+ in 4 months is ambitious and depends on your learning speed and consistency. Even if you fall slightly short, a strong score improvement can still open opportunities in government or private colleges depending on category and cutoff trends.
Stay disciplined, trust the process, and do not compare your journey with others. Many students have made significant jumps in short durations with focused effort. All the best.

Hi
If you are a class 12th (Arts Stream) student, then you are not directly eligible for the NEET exam because you must belong to the Medical Science stream and have main subjects like Physics, Chemistry and Biology. This exam contains questions from these three subjects. But you can fulfil your dream to become a doctor by completing these subjects in class 12th from an open school like NIOS (National Institute of Open Schooling), and then you will be eligible for the NEET exam. You need to score 50% marks in Physics, Chemistry and Biology. This step is the correct way for you.
Thank you.
