The National Medical Commission (NMC) on October 6 released the syllabus for the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) UG 2024. In the revised syllabi of Physics, Chemistry and Biology, some topics have been left out while some additions – experimental skills in Physics syllabus, not mentioned in NEET 2023 syllabus – have been included in the syllabus for 2024. The list of topics for NEET UG 2024 can be downloaded from the NMC website, nmc.org.in.
