NEET PG syllabus: the whole MBBS course, subject by subject

NBEMS does not publish a separate chapter list. The exam covers the MBBS curriculum set out by the NMC. Here is what that means in practice.

In shortThe NEET PG syllabus is the MBBS course. The NEET PG 2025 bulletin says questions cover the subject and knowledge areas in the NMC’s Graduate Medical Education Regulations. That spans pre-clinical subjects such as Anatomy, para-clinical subjects such as Pathology and Pharmacology, and clinical subjects such as Medicine and Surgery.

What is the official NEET PG syllabus?

NBEMS does not publish a chapter-by-chapter syllabus. The NEET PG 2025 Information Bulletin defines the syllabus by reference: questions cover the subject and knowledge areas in the Graduate Medical Education Regulations issued by the National Medical Commission.

In plain terms, NEET PG tests the whole MBBS course you have just finished.

The 2026 bulletin could not be retrieved, and NEET PG 2027 has not been announced. If NBEMS publishes anything more specific, we will update this page.

Which subjects does NEET PG cover?

NBEMS’s bulletin does not list subjects in the text we read. The grouping below is the standard way the MBBS curriculum is organised. It is a list of MBBS subjects, not an NBEMS document.

Pre-clinical

  • Anatomy
  • Physiology
  • Biochemistry

Para-clinical

  • Pathology
  • Microbiology
  • Pharmacology
  • Forensic Medicine
  • Community Medicine (Preventive and Social Medicine)

Clinical

  • Medicine
  • Surgery
  • Obstetrics and Gynaecology
  • Paediatrics
  • Ophthalmology
  • ENT (Otorhinolaryngology)
  • Orthopaedics
  • Dermatology
  • Psychiatry
  • Anaesthesia
  • Radiology

How many questions come from each subject?

We could not confirm an official subject-wise split for NEET PG 2026. Splits quoted online may come from older bulletins or from coaching estimates. If NBEMS publishes one in the 2027 bulletin, use that.

What is certain is that the exam covers every subject above in one paper, and every subject can cost you marks.

How should you use the syllabus?

Treat it as a checklist, not a reading list. You have already studied all of it once. NEET PG preparation is mostly about bringing every subject back to exam-ready recall at the same time.

Make a subject tracker. One row per subject, with columns for first revision, second revision, and your accuracy in the last test. Gaps show up fast.

Do not neglect the short subjects. Smaller subjects such as Dermatology, Psychiatry and Anaesthesia take less time to revise, which makes their marks relatively cheap.

Link pre-clinical to clinical. Many clinical questions rest on anatomy, physiology or pharmacology. Revising them together saves time.
