2Each section has exactly 36 questions in 42 minutes — don’t overspend time on one group, move on and return later
3Since options are 4 per question, use elimination technique to increase accuracy on tricky clinical questions
4Focus revision on high-weightage subjects: Medicine, Surgery, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, and Pediatrics typically dominate PG-level papers
5Solve previous 3 years’ NEET PG papers under exam conditions to build stamina for the 3.5 hour single sitting
