Frequently asked questions

What disease/pathogen facts does NEET test most?

Matching specific pathogens (Plasmodium, Salmonella typhi, various worms and protozoans) to the disease they cause and its transmission route is the most common question format.

Is antibody structure tested in detail?

Yes — the basic structure (heavy/light chains, the five immunoglobulin classes IgA/IgG/IgM/IgD/IgE) and their respective roles are commonly asked.

How is cancer covered for NEET purposes?

At a conceptual level — oncogenes, proto-oncogenes, metastasis, and common detection/diagnostic methods (biopsy, MRI, etc.) rather than deep molecular detail.
