Which Chemistry chapters should I prioritize to score high in NEET 2026?

To score well in NEET 2026, Chemistry can be your rank booster subject if you focus on the right chapters. Many toppers agree that Chemistry gives quick, straightforward scoring opportunities compared to Physics and Biology.

1. Physical Chemistry (Concept + Practice)

• Mole Concept & Stoichiometry
• Atomic Structure
• Thermodynamics
• Chemical & Ionic Equilibrium
• Electrochemistry
• Solid State
• Chemical Kinetics

These chapters involve formula-based problems; practice NCERT + PYQs to secure 15–20 marks.

2. Inorganic Chemistry (NCERT = Bible)

• Periodic Table & Periodicity
• Chemical Bonding & Molecular Structure
• Coordination Compounds
• p-block (Group 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
• d-block & f-block elements
• Hydrogen & s-block elements

Direct NCERT-based questions dominate NEET; revise tables, reactions, and exceptions thoroughly.

3. Organic Chemistry (Mechanism + NCERT examples)

• General Organic Chemistry (GOC)
• Hydrocarbons (Alkanes, Alkenes, Alkynes)
• Alcohols, Phenols, and Ethers
• Aldehydes, Ketones & Carboxylic Acids
• Amines
• Biomolecules & Polymers
• Chemistry in Everyday Life

Around 15–18 questions in NEET come from Organic. Strong command on reaction mechanisms and NCERT examples is crucial.
