NEET UG is an offline, pen-and-paper-based examination that is conducted annually by the National Testing Agency (NTA). The exam comprises of a single-question paper with 180 multiple-choice questions (MCQs) covering Physics, Chemistry, and Biology (Botany and Zoology). The exam lasts 3 hours and 20 minutes and is held in various languages, making it accessible to many students. NEET UG is held for admissions to various medical courses like MBBS, BDS, BAMS, BSMS, BUMS, and BHMS.
