Challenging NEET 2020 Controversial Questions

As the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) 2020 comes to a close, many aspirants are left questioning the clarity and fairness of some of the questions asked. This article delves into specific controversial questions from the NEET 2020 paper, including a detailed analysis and discussion on the issues that need scrutiny.

Biological and Physical Controversies

The NEET 2020 paper, while generally considered to be of moderate difficulty, has faced scrutiny over a few challenging questions. One such question is the one related to restriction enzymes in Biology. The question presented a scenario that was open to interpretation, leading to a call for a fresh answer key from the National Testing Agency (NTA).

Physics also saw some questions that need re-evaluation. For instance, the question regarding the temperature coefficient of resistance was a point of contention. According to Ncert guidelines, insulators exhibit a negative temperature coefficient at high temperatures, but the question did not specify the temperature context. Assuming room temperature, a semiconductor would be a better fit for this type of question. This discrepancy highlights the need for more precise and clear questions.

Cell Cycle and Phase Controversies

The cell cycle question asking about 'Go phase' also stirred debate. Parthenocarpy and parthenogenesis in plant biology were questioned, with strong recommendations to challenge the question in favor of Parthenocarpy. Similarly, the dip angle for the magnetic field was contended, with evidence suggesting it should be reconsidered for accuracy. The cell cycle phase question also saw pushback, with concerns raised about the diagram within the NCert text being inconsistent with the question.

Additional Question Challenges

Other specific questions that aspirants found challenging included:

Cornea: A challenge to the protein content and listing it as a potential bonus question. RBC Question: A biological question regarding red blood cells was identified as needing further clarification. Ionic Mobility: Another question in chemistry that needed clear exposition.

Why These Controversies Matter

The primary reason for these challenges is to ensure fairness and accuracy in the evaluation process. Each of these questions represents a potential impact on the aspirant's final score. Given the high stakes of the NEET exam, it is crucial that every question adheres to strict standards of clarity and accuracy.

Conclusion

As many aspirants consider challenging the NEET 2020 questions, it is essential to voice concerns and seek clarification. By challenging these questions, we not only seek a fair resolution but also ensure that future exams adhere to higher standards of clarity and precision.
