NEET 2026 Question Papers: May Exam and June Re-Examination

The 2026 cycle includes the exam held on May 3, 2026 and the NEET UG re-examination on June 21, 2026. These are different papers and should have separate download entries. The June re-examination is the relevant paper for the final 2026 examination cycle; the May paper can still be used as extra question practice.

NEET Previous Year Question Papers with Answer Keys and Paper Codes

A useful NEET past paper set contains the question paper, the matching answer key and, where available, explanations. Paper codes and question order can differ, so do not use an answer key meant for another set. The linked TestPrepKart library lists several codes for 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2024; answer-key availability must be checked for each document.

Step 1: Match the Code

Check the year, language and paper code printed on the PDF before starting.

Step 2: Solve First

Attempt the paper under the appropriate historical time limit without consulting a key.

Step 3: Review the Key

Use the corresponding official final key when available and record missed concepts.

Scoring reminder: Under the current NEET marking method, each correct answer earns +4 and each incorrect answer carries -1; unanswered questions earn 0. Historical answer-key revisions or exam-specific instructions should be respected.

NEET Past Exam Paper Pattern: Important Changes Across the Years

Previous-year papers are valuable, but the question-selection rules and exam time have changed. Use older papers to practise concepts and speed without assuming every historical paper matches the current NEET format.

Exam yearsQuestion formatPractice advice
2025–2026180 compulsory questions in 180 minutesUse to rehearse the current full-paper structure.
2022–2024200 questions printed; candidates attempted 180, with optional Section B; 200 minutesChoose the allowed questions in each section; note longer historical time.
2021200 printed; 180 attempted; 180 minutesAccount for the optional questions.
2016–2020Generally 180 questions with no optional Section B; 180 minutesUseful for foundational coverage and speed drills.

The table summarises historical test formats; follow the current NTA information bulletin for the exam year in which you will appear.

NEET Physics, Chemistry and Biology Past Paper Practice

NEET past papers are most useful when students do more than mark a final total. Split your review by subject, then identify which question types consume time or cause repeat mistakes.

PHYSICS

Numerical Accuracy

Practise units, formula selection, multi-step reasoning and calculation speed. Rework incorrect numerical questions without looking at your notes.

CHEMISTRY

Concept and Recall

Separate calculation errors from gaps in reaction knowledge, bonding concepts and NCERT-based facts.

BIOLOGY

NCERT Precision

Review diagrams, terminology, exceptions and closely worded answer options. Confirm each mistake against the syllabus and relevant textbook chapter.

NEET Past Exam Paper Practice Plan for Students

Start with one paper to identify your current level, then progress to timed attempts. There is no need to solve all 11 years immediately. The quality of your error review is more important than the number of PDFs you finish.

Preparation stagePaper activityWhat to record
Building conceptsUse selected PYQs after finishing a chapter.Incorrect concepts and NCERT chapters.
First full-paper attemptSolve a recent year under suitable timed conditions.Score by subject and unanswered questions.
Weekly improvementRetest weak chapters, then take another paper.Repeat errors, guesswork and time loss.
Final revisionTake full papers using the latest exam format.Accuracy trend, pacing and recovery plan.

Simple score tracker

For every attempt, note the paper year and code, Physics/Chemistry/Biology scores, total score, time used, weak topics and date of your next revision.

Practice-score formula: (Correct × 4) − (Incorrect × 1)

NEET Previous Year Papers for NRI and OCI Students

Students studying in American or other international curricula can use NEET PYQs to compare their science preparation with NEET-style questions. Focus particularly on NCERT terminology in Biology and Chemistry, numerical speed in Physics and the time needed to complete a full paper. The same NEET UG examination applies; admission eligibility and counselling routes require separate verification.

Students Who Prepared for NEET From Abroad While Targeting AIIMS

Preparing for AIIMS from the USA or another country means balancing school, time zones, NCERT-based NEET preparation and counselling readiness. These student videos show how learners prepared for NEET from abroad and built the discipline needed for a competitive medical-admission target.

Important: These are NEET preparation and result experiences. They are not presented as AIIMS admission claims. AIIMS admission ultimately depends on the student's NEET rank, eligible category, MCC choices and allotment outcome.

NEET Preparation Experience From the USA

This student journey is useful for NRI families who want to understand how NEET preparation can be managed alongside a U.S. school schedule. For an AIIMS aspirant, the useful lessons are consistency, NCERT revision, question practice and mock-test discipline.

This overseas-student story shows the preparation journey behind a competitive NEET result. Students targeting AIIMS can use it as motivation while remembering that final AIIMS admission must still be judged through the student's actual AIR, category and MCC counselling.

AIIMS IS RANK-DRIVEN

NEET Courses for NRI Students Targeting AIIMS

AIIMS does not have a separate NRI quota, so an NRI student targeting AIIMS needs a strong NEET rank. Choose a preparation plan based on the student's grade, current Physics-Chemistry-Biology foundation, available study time and the amount of NEET syllabus still to be covered.

NEET EXAM RESULTS

Selections From Students Who Sat NEET From Abroad

These result boards show NEET outcomes from TestPrepKart students, including students preparing from outside India. They can help AIIMS-focused families understand what overseas students can achieve through structured NEET preparation, but they are NEET result boards rather than an AIIMS allotment list.

Previous-year results can provide useful preparation context, but they should not be converted directly into an AIIMS prediction. Marks-to-rank movement and AIIMS closing ranks can change significantly from one year to another.

For AIIMS aspirants: Use student results as preparation evidence and motivation. For actual admission decisions, use the candidate's real NEET AIR, reservation category, eligible seat type and the latest MCC closing-rank data.

NEET Past Exam Download PDF: Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I download NEET papers from 2016 to 2026?

Use the year-wise table above to open TestPrepKart's PDF collection. At this update, it lists papers from 2016–2025; the 2026 files need adding.

Does NEET 2026 have two different question papers?

Yes. The May 3 exam and June 21 re-examination should be labeled separately. Do not confuse their question papers or answer keys.

Are all NEET previous year papers available with solutions?

Not necessarily. The collection lists question-paper PDFs. Check each year for a matching official answer key or explanations instead of assuming every file includes solutions.

How many NEET past year papers should I solve?

Begin with several recent papers and review them thoroughly. Add older years for topic coverage, error correction and timed practice.

Are older NEET papers still useful for the next exam?

Yes, particularly for core concepts. Check the current syllabus and exam pattern, because optional questions and test duration have changed in some years.

Can NRI and OCI students use the same NEET papers?

Yes. NEET PYQs are useful for all aspirants. Eligibility, exam-centre access and MBBS counselling documents are separate considerations.

Turn NEET Past Papers into a Better Preparation Plan
