KEY AND SOLUTION FOR NEET - 2016

NOTE:
The terms Easy (E), Medium: (M), and Difficult: (D) are based on the following points
EASY (E):Easy Questions are defined as those questions that can be answered by a student who knows
the concept under question. It is a direct application of the concept. A student is expected to have
attempted all the EASY Category Questions.
MEDIUM (M):Medium Difficulty Questions are those questions that may involve more than one concept. A wellprepared student should be able to identify at least 75% of these and solve them correctly.
DIFFICULT (D):Difficult Questions are those questions which definitely involve multiple concepts and are tricky.
The students may be led to think away from the ideal method of problem solving. It will require
good effort even from the well prepared student to identify the Difficult ones and categorize them
accordingly.
