I would suggest you to contact MCI’s helpline for NEET-UG provided in this post and reply us with your findings.

Greetings sir!
Is there negativew marking for NEET UG?
And will the questions asked be from previous AIPMT papers?
(a) Read point (13) What is the evaluation procedure of the test?
(b) You might have noted present NEET UG syllabus is almost a replication of NCERT syllabus, thus the likelihood of questioning would be very much similar to that of AIPMT. Solve as many AIPMT question papers as you can. This blow will assist you immensely for your test preparation. All the best!
