NEET 2022 Question Paper by NTA
The NTA will release the NEET 2022 question paper and solutions on the official website after it is released. NTA will also release the NEET OMR sheets, revealing the candidates’ answers marked in the exam. Meanwhile, candidates can check the question papers from previous years in the table below.
We provide the previous year’s NEET papers for codes M1 to M6, N1 to N6, O1 to O6, and P1 to P6. The PDFs of NEET are available below for candidates to download.
What are these codes?
Every exam has 4 different sets of question papers, AA, BB, CC, and DD. These are called paper codes. In other words, each question paper contains jumbled questions in sequence, sometimes with a twisted question for the same answer. In an examination hall with 10 candidates, the first person gets AA, the second gets BB, the third gets CC, and the fourth gets DD, but not precisely in the same order. A primary objective of this is to stop candidates from engaging in malpractices. In the previous year, NEET-UG papers were available for codes M1 to M6, N1 to N6, O1 to O6 and P1 to P6.
