Medical Entrance Exams: The first step is to thoroughly understand the structure, syllabus, and format of the exam you plan to take.

With lakhs of students competing for a limited number of medical seats each year, clearing entrance exams like NEET, MCAT, BMAT, or GAMSAT requires more than just academic knowledge. Success depends on strategic preparation, a strong grasp of core subjects, and mental resilience. This year, the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) UG 2025 was conducted on May 4, with more than 20 lakh students taking the undergraduate medical entrance exam.

Here are some key tips to help you excel in these exams:

The first step is to thoroughly understand the structure, syllabus, and format of the exam you plan to take.Top Medical Entrance Exams:

• NEET (India): Conducted in pen-and-paper mode, NEET focuses on NCERT-based syllabi in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. Speed and accuracy are essential for a high rank.
• MCAT (USA): A computer-based test that assesses scientific understanding, critical analysis, and reasoning abilities.
• BMAT (UK): Used by top UK universities like Oxford and Cambridge, BMAT evaluates scientific knowledge, logical thinking, and writing skills.
• GAMSAT (Australia, UK, Ireland): Designed for graduate-level entry, GAMSAT tests analytical reasoning in humanities and sciences, prioritizing problem-solving over memorisation.

Choosing the right study resources, including coaching support and targeted materials, plays a vital role in preparation.Master Core Subjects With Conceptual Clarity

• A strong foundation in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics is essential. Focus on:
• Understanding concepts rather than rote memorisation.
• Applying knowledge through problem-solving and real-life examples.
• Consistent practice with topic-wise questions and end-of-chapter exercises.
• Identifying weak areas early-such as Organic Chemistry or Physics-and addressing them systematically can make a big difference.

Use Time Wisely And Revise Strategically

• Time management is key to effective preparation.
• Plan a realistic study calendar with clear daily, weekly, and monthly targets.
• Take regular mock tests to simulate the actual exam and improve speed and confidence.
• Begin focused revision at least two months in advance using tools like flashcards, summary notes, and concept maps.
• Review mock test performance to spot gaps and refine your study methods.

Safeguard Your Mental Health

• Preparing for competitive exams can be mentally taxing.
• Stay connected with supportive family and friends.
• Include breaks, light physical activity, or mindfulness practices in your routine.
• Seek professional help if stress becomes overwhelming-student mental health support is widely available.
• Emotional well-being enhances focus and sustains motivation.

Keep Global Options Open

• While NEET is the primary goal for many, students should also consider international medical education opportunities.
• Explore options in the US, UK with globally recognised programmes.
• Understand each country’s admission process, cost structure, licensing exams (like USMLE), and career prospects.
• Prepare in parallel for alternate routes-get familiar with MCAT-style reasoning and start early on English language tests if needed.

“To excel in competitive medical exams, students must go beyond academics. Smart planning, disciplined execution, emotional balance, and a global outlook can make the journey to becoming a doctor both achievable and fulfilling,” says Arunesh Kumar, Country Head – India & South East Asia, Manipal’s American University of Antigua (AUA) College of Medicine.

The exam was originally scheduled for June 15, but last Friday, the Supreme Court intervened after concerns were raised about the exam being held in two shifts.

The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) has moved an application in the Supreme Court seeking permission to conduct the NEET PG 2025 exam on August 3. The exam was originally scheduled for June 15, but the Supreme Court intervened after concerns were raised about the exam being held in two shifts. Following the order, NBEMS has postponed the examination.

The Court observed that holding the exam in two separate sessions would be arbitrary and could create different levels of difficulty. As a result, the Court directed NBEMS to make arrangements for conducting the exam in a single shift across the country. It also allowed NBEMS to request additional time if needed to implement these changes.

The intervention came in response to a petition filed by the United Doctors Front, which argued that the exam must be conducted in a single session nationwide. The Supreme Court issued a notice and asked NBEMS to respond.

Following the directive, NBEMS has now proposed to conduct NEET PG 2025 on August 3, from 9:00 am to 12:30 pm. However, this will require major logistical changes. Over 2.42 lakh candidates are expected to take the exam, which means NBEMS must arrange more than 1,000 exam centres across 250+ cities and deploy nearly 60,000 staff, including invigilators and security personnel. Ensuring proper infrastructure, preventing malpractice, and coordinating with educational institutions are some of the key challenges involved.

A final decision from the Supreme Court is awaited. In the meantime, candidates are advised to regularly check the official NBEMS website for updates on the exam schedule and further instructions.
