What chapter did you think was easy until NEET proved you wrong?

I genuinely thought a few chapters would be "free marks" because they looked straightforward while reading them for the first time. But once I started solving PYQs and mock tests, they turned out to be much trickier than I expected.

Which chapter gave you that reality check? What made it difficult, and what finally helped you get better at it?

What changed in your preparation after your first really bad mock score?

I still remember how demotivating my first really bad mock score felt. For a while, I questioned whether I was even studying the right way.

If you've been through that phase, what did you change afterward? Did you switch resources, start analyzing mistakes more seriously, change your revision schedule, or simply stop stressing over marks?

Government school enrolment dropped by 86 lakh in just 2 years. What do you think is driving this shift?

According to the latest UDISE report, government schools have seen a drop of around 86 lakh students over the past two years, even though dropout rates have improved. Interestingly, the total number of school teachers has crossed 1.02 crore for the first time.

What do you think is causing this decline in enrolment? Are more families moving to private schools, are demographic changes playing a role, or is there something else happening on the ground?

When did you realize NEET was actually harder than you expected?

For me, it wasn't on day one. It was when I started giving mock tests and realized that simply finishing the syllabus wasn't enough. The competition, time pressure, and consistency required were on a completely different level than I had imagined.

What was that moment for you?
