Frequently asked questions

How do NEETprep and Lumi compare for NEET MCQ practice?

Lumi's free bank on lumineet.com has 780 verified NEET questions across all 79 NCERT chapters with full solutions and option-by-option analysis, and the app schedules revision with FSRS and estimates ability with Item Response Theory. NEETprep lists 8L+ MCQs with audio and video explanations.

Does NEETprep use AI?

The NEETprep homepage we checked describes analytics and a rank estimate after each mock but does not describe AI or a named scheduling algorithm.

What does a NEETprep batch cost?

On 27 Sep 2026 neetprep.com listed Target Batch Ascend at ₹3,998 and Masterclass in Biology at ₹1,799. Prices change, so check the site. Lumi has a free plan and paid monthly plans, with current plans shown in the app.

How is a rank estimate different from an IRT ability estimate?

A rank estimate places your mock score against other test-takers. An Item Response Theory ability estimate models how likely you are to answer questions of a given difficulty correctly, so two students with the same score can receive different estimates.
