IMPORTANT BIOLOGY MCQ |
If you want to secure good marks in medical entrance examination you must score good marks in Biology
segment . if you are unable to do so it will be tough ask to score good marks in the examinations. There is altogether 90 questions and you must try to attempt all the question to score good marks and if you are
unable to do so then you must tey to attempt 8o questions at least and all the 80 questions must be correct and possibility of negative marking should be zero . If you want to secure your postions in final list of All India list . That is the reason in this site you will find more number of Biology MCQ questions then Chemistry and Physics .
