NEET 2027 · built from 1,875 past questions

A NEET study plan for droppers and repeaters

A 44-week repeat year at 8 hours a day schedules 850 hours: 42% relearning and practice, the rest revision, 10 subject tests and 15 full mocks. Of the 80 chapters, Structural Organisation in Animals returns the most marks per hour (0.45), and 47 were asked in every paper from 2017 to 2026. It covers chapters worth 100% of expected marks in full, and leaves 1,614 of your 2,464 set hours free for buffer and extra practice.

How the planned hours split

358 h learn · 410 h revise · 83 h tests

Marks are expected marks next paper; full prep is the hours to prepare every chapter fully at these settings. Planned hours in the plan above, all phases. A further 83 h of full mocks, their reviews and the must-know sweep cover every subject.

Asked in every paper, 2017 to 2026

47 chapters

The core asked every year: these chapters had at least one question in each of the 10 papers, most marks first. Across chapters, 67 of 183 topics were asked in 8 or more papers and again in 2025 or 2026; they produced 55% of the questions. The plan teaches them first and never cuts them.

FAQ

About the dropper plan

How should a NEET dropper plan the year?
Relearn weak chapters by marks per hour, keep everything else alive with spaced revision, then move to weekly mocks. At 8 hours a day over 44 weeks the plan schedules 850 hours and 15 full mocks.
Which chapters should a dropper redo first?
At these settings: Structural Organisation in Animals, Biodiversity and Conservation, Organisms and Populations. Rate each chapter in the planner and it reorders around your own weak spots.
How are a dropper's hours split?
Physics 218 hours, Chemistry 202 hours, Biology 347 hours, plus 83 hours of full mocks, reviews and the must-know sweep.
Where do the numbers come from?
From all 1,875 questions in the NEET papers from 2017 to 2026, each mapped to its chapter, topic and idea. A chapter is worth its expected questions next paper times 4 marks, with recent years weighted more. Hours come from how hard its questions were and how much else builds on it.
Is the NEET 2027 exam date in this plan?
No. The NEET 2027 date has not been announced. This page assumes 44 weeks to the exam; set your own date in the planner and the whole plan is rebuilt around it.
