NEET EXAM:- THE SILENT KILLER

 

NEET Exam: A Trap or an Opportunity? Understanding the Real Story

The NEET (National Eligibility cum Entrance Test) exam is often viewed with mixed feelings by students across India. While it’s the gateway to medical education, many call it a trap because of its intense competition, pressure, and alleged unfairness. But is NEET really a trap?

Why Some Students Feel NEET Is a Trap

1. Overwhelming Competition

Every year, lakhs of students appear for NEET, but only a fraction get admission to government medical colleges. The fierce competition can feel like a trap where only a few succeed, and the rest face heartbreak.

2. Coaching Culture

The NEET exam has given rise to a booming coaching industry. Students feel pressured to spend huge amounts of money and time on coaching classes, often sidelining holistic learning and creativity.

3. Mental Health Stress

The stress, anxiety, and depression related to NEET preparation are real. Many students feel trapped in a cycle of endless studying, fear of failure, and parental/societal expectations.

4. Language and Regional Disparities

NEET is conducted mainly in a few languages, putting some regional language students at a disadvantage, which some see as an unfair trap.


But Is NEET All Bad? Why It’s Also an Opportunity

1. Standardized Medical Entrance

NEET provides a uniform platform, replacing multiple exams with one. It helps in maintaining a standard level of quality among future doctors.

2. Merit-Based Admissions

It aims to select students purely based on merit, reducing favoritism and corruption in medical admissions.

3. Encourages Strong Fundamentals

The exam demands a good grasp of Physics, Chemistry, and Biology — helping build a solid base for medical studies.


How to Avoid Feeling Trapped by NEET

  • Focus on Understanding, Not Just Rote Learning: Grasp concepts deeply instead of memorizing blindly.

  • Mental Health Is Priority: Take breaks, meditate, exercise, and talk openly about stress.

  • Choose the Right Study Resources: Not all coaching centers are equal; pick those with proven success and ethical teaching.

  • Practice Time Management: Develop a realistic timetable balancing study and rest.

  • Stay Positive: Believe in your efforts and remember that NEET is a challenge, not a life sentence.

Nguyễn Huyền Diệu: A Friend I Can Never Forget (my last blog)

  A Goodbye I Never Wanted Beginning  There are some people in life who come like a blessing. They do not just stay as a name on the phone or a face on the screen. They become a part of your daily life, a part of your thoughts, a part of your happiness. For me, Jenny was that person. From the beginning, she was special. Not because she did something big, but because she was simple, calm, mature, and understanding. She always listened, she always replied kindly, even when I acted childish. With her, I felt free. With her, I felt safe. With her, I felt like I had a true good friend. But today, as I write this, my heart is heavy. Jenny is no longer my friend. She blocked me on Instagram. She told me there are no more chances. And I know the reason—because of me, my behavior, my overthinking, my immaturity. This blog is not written to force her. It is not written to ask again. It is only my diary of feelings, my truth. If she ever reads this, she should know: I always saw her...
