— NTA will start online registration for NEET 2025 in February 2025. The last date to apply will be in the second week of March 2025.
— NTA will conduct the NEET UG 2025 exam in April 2025 (tentatively).
NTA is yet to release the brochure for NEET 2025. The Chemistry section is divided into three subsections: Inorganic, Physical, and Organic. The vast majority of the theory-based questions in this area are asked from the Organic and Inorganic portions. Check the section-wise best books for NEET Chemistry 2025:

Following the exam pattern of NEET 2025, there will be a total of 50 questions in the Chemistry section of NEET, from which 45 questions must be attempted. This section has questions from Chemistry’s Physical, Organic, and Inorganic sections.
The vast majority of the theory-based questions in this area are asked from the Organic and Inorganic sections of Chemistry. Physical Chemistry exam questions are numerical in nature and call for analytical thinking. The books available at Embibe for NEET Chemistry are given here in the table below:

The NEET Organic Chemistry section will have 14 to 18 questions. The most crucial chapter in this section is General Organic Chemistry. Along with GOC, candidates must complete Isomerism and Effects. This trio will help candidates solve most questions in the Chemistry section. Experts advise completing GOC, Alcohol, Hydrocarbons, Aldehyde, Alkyl Halide, and Amines before starting to solve the questions.
There will be around 15 to 20 questions from Physical Chemistry. Questions in Physical Chemistry are majorly asked from Chemical and Ionic Equilibrium, Electrochemistry, Redox, and Liquid Solutions. These four topics constitute about 8–12 questions in Physical Chemistry. However, before solving the problems, it is crucial to understand the principles. One must take the following steps to prepare for the Physical Chemistry component of the NEET.
The major mistake candidates make is not preparing well for the NEET Chemistry section. The number of questions from this section has recently reached equivalence to those from Organic and Physical Chemistry. Candidates must not miss out on the p-block, coordination compounds, and chemical bonding chapters of NEET Chemistry. Collectively, candidates can find 6 to 8 questions based on them.
Questions in Chemistry are mostly from NCERT textbooks. The NCERT books should, therefore, be the primary area of concentration for this subject. Candidates must check the Chemistry NEET reference books after thoroughly reading the NCERT books.
Here are some of the common questions on the best books for NEET Chemistry:
Ans. NCERT (Textbook) Chemistry – Class 11 & 12 and Organic Chemistry Objective by Arihant (for practising problems) are some of the best books for NEET Chemistry.
Ans. Morrison and Boyd’s Organic Chemistry is considered one of the best Organic Chemistry books for NEET.
