Engineer's Son Secures AIR 4 In NEET UG 2025, Says 'Consistent Study' Is Key
NEET UG 2025 AIR 4 Mrinal Jha said he dedicated around 10-12 hours to self-study on school holidays and about 6-7 hours on regular school days. A native of Bihar, Mrinal shifted to Faridabad four years ago. With a NEET score of 99.9998189, Mrinal's journey towards success began in Class 9, but he became more serious about his preparation in Class 11, focusing primarily on the medical entrance exam. He dedicated around 10-12 hours to self-study on school holidays and about six to seven hours on regular school days. 'I started preparing since class 9 but I became more serious from class 11. I put my main focus on NEET preparations only. For the rest of the board exam papers, I started studying them a few days before the exams," he told News18. He further added that he focused on completing his daily target rather than the time, practising about 500-600 MCQs each day. He also attended Allen's coaching classes. Mrinal found both coaching and self-study equally important, saying that coaching helped build concepts, and self-study gave him confidence. He highlighted the significance of mock tests and revisions in identifying weak areas and clearing doubts, noting that the last two years were crucial for his preparation. In the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET-UG) 2025 exam, Mrinal started with Biology, followed by Chemistry, and then Physics. The Physics questions are usually very lengthy, on the other hand, Biology answers are typically easier and consists of mostly of MCQs where you just have to tick the correct answer," the 17-year-old said. Originally from Bettiah in Bihar's West Champaran district, Mrinal has experienced frequent relocation due to his father's job, who is a mechanical engineer. He attended Indraprastha Public School, scoring 87.4% in Class 10 and 87.6% in Class 12 under the CBSE board. First Published: June 18, 2025, 16:04 IST
