NEET 2021 question pattern: To rationalize the school syllabus reduction by education boards, the National Testing Agency (NTA) has decided to introduce internal choices in the NEET 2021 question paper. The three subjects included in NEET 2021 – Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics – will have two sections – A and B – as per the question pattern announced today. The first section will consist of 35 mandatory questions while the second section will have 15, out of which students will have to attempt any 10. “Each subject will consist of two sections. Section A will consist of 35 Questions and Section B will have 15 questions, out of these 15 Questions, candidates can choose to attempt any 10 Questions. So, the total number of questions and utilization of time will remain the same,” the NTA said. This is a move “to rationalize the decision of reduction in the syllabus by various School Education Boards”, it said. This is a move similar to the one introduced for this year’s JEE Main exam. In the engineering exam too, the NTA has added 30 optional questions, out of which students need to answer 25.
