Are NCERT-only high-frequency topics enough for NEET?

For NEET Biology, yes — NCERT is more than enough. Over 80–85% of Biology questions in recent NEET exams come directly or indirectly from NCERT lines, diagrams, tables, and examples. If you revise NCERT Biology line-by-line (including small boxes and summary points), you can comfortably score 320–340/360 in Biology.

But for Physics and Chemistry, NCERT alone is not enough. While NCERT builds the foundation, numerical problem practice and conceptual clarity are essential from reference books and coaching material.

NCERT is Enough For:

• Biology: Must be read word-for-word, diagrams memorised, and examples revised.
• Inorganic Chemistry: NCERT facts and reactions are directly asked (especially p-block, d-block, and coordination compounds).
• Chemistry Examples/Exercises: In-text and back exercises often appear in NEET.

NCERT is NOT Enough For:

• Physics Numericals: NCERT gives formulas, but solving PYQs and coaching modules is necessary for problem-solving speed.
• Organic Chemistry Mechanisms: NCERT gives basics, but you need extra practice for multi-step questions and exceptions.
• Physical Chemistry Numericals: Topics like thermodynamics, equilibrium, electrochemistry require problem practice beyond NCERT.
