According to the feedback received from the students and experts, overall difficulty of the NEET-UG 2024 Examination was easy to moderate. The NEET paper was based on the NCERT syllabus. At that time, the Chemistry paper was crucial in determining the rank. No questions were asked from Ionic Equilibrium in Chemistry, and 5 questions came from Physical Chemistry, which had been added to the syllabus that year.

In Biology, some questions were based on old NCERT, while others were from outside the NCERT syllabus.
