NEET 2026 Syllabus Overview

The NEET 2026 syllabus is based on the latest NCERT Class 11 and 12 curriculum. The National Testing Agency (NTA) has specifically designed it for medical entrance exam preparation. It includes important topics from three main subjects: Physics, Chemistry, and Biology.

This year, the NTA has made some changes to the syllabus. They have updated it to align with the revised NCERT textbooks. Some chapters have been removed, and overlapping topics have been reduced.

If you are preparing for NEET 2026, carefully review the updated NTA syllabus. Check which chapters are included and which have been removed. This will help you study smarter. You can focus your time on the topics that are actually relevant to the exam instead of wasting effort on sections that have been removed.

A clear understanding of the syllabus makes your preparation more organized and effective.
