The NEET Physics is usually considered to be the toughest out of the three subjects. In 2019, Physics section was of moderate level. With a greater number of tricky and numerical questions, Physics was lengthy and more difficult than the other two sections. According to our expert’s analysis, about 50% questions were conceptual and formula-based, and so they were easy. From the remaining, 10 questions were medium and 10 questions were difficult. Physics section had more questions from the syllabus of class XII than class XI. Total 22 questions were asked from the class XI and 23 questions were asked from the class XII syllabus.
