The NEET PG 2022 question paper was easy to moderate one.
The questions were direct and a lot of questions were having subject overlap.
Subjects like ENT, obs gyne, and mycology were more focused on the NEET PG question paper.
Around 95% were clinical scenario questions, even for pre- & paraclinical subjects
The spread of topics in the NEET PG paper 2022 was consistent & as expected.
Most questions in NEET PG 2022 were straightforward in the presentation of facts. Only about 6-8 questions had a few vague descriptions
COVID19 related questions were primarily in the paraclinical space.
A fewer number of questions from subjects like surgery/medicine/peds were asked in the NEET PG 2022 question paper.
Overall, the NEET PG 2022 exam was a straightforward exam – with cherry red macula & Torres bodies & crumpled paper appearances & G6PD deficiencies. A few tricky questions: is the child with tender hepatomegaly & mild jaundice having icteric leptospirosis? There’s nothing to suggest DHF / Chikungunya & it’s definitely not hepatic encephalopathy!
As per the experts of Aakash:
A lot of OBGYNs! Again, mostly straightforward. IUCD – contradictions; manual sweep for retained placenta; mid-pelvis (IBQ).
As expected, several questions on contraception.
A couple of questions on ectopic pregnancy.
75 image-based questions – but about 30 of those didn’t really need an image – like the one on hemolytic anemia having splenomegaly as the accompanying clinical finding.
Many clinical scenarios – again a lot of them where the clinical scenario wasn’t relevant at all: for example, the 4-line description of cholera case, only to turn around and ask the receptor for the toxin!
Quite a lot of questions from molecular biology & biochemistry – straightforward facts.
Surgery was simple – exploratory laparotomy for perforation-peritonitis & stab wound; intussception.
Tricky question on the inhaled foreign body: flexible bronchoscopy is risky in a hypoxemic patient & foreign body removal is easier with rigid bronchoscopy. Reduced air entry was the answer.
Scleromalacia perforans – the one important ocular complication of RA.
HLA-DQ2 seen in celiac disease.
According to Priya Sinha, NEET PG 2022 exam was easy to moderate. A lot of questions were asked from microbiology and pathology and the duration of the exam was enough to complete the test.
Another NEET PG 2022 aspirant, Amit Jaiswal said, “exam was easy and questions were expected, however, the pattern of the questions is different from the previous year. Around 10 to 20 questions are out of the box”.
