Wave Optics — NEET/JEE Questions, Notes & Weightage
Class 12 Optics NEET weightage: High 152 questions
Covers Huygens' principle, interference (Young's double-slit experiment), and diffraction. YDSE numericals (fringe width, position of bright/dark fringes) are this chapter's most reliable, near-guaranteed NEET/JEE contribution.

Frequently asked questions
What numerical is asked most from this chapter?
Young's double-slit experiment fringe-width and fringe-position calculations are the chapter's most frequently repeated and highest-value question type.
Is diffraction tested as often as interference?
Less often — interference (YDSE) is tested more frequently than single-slit diffraction, though both appear.
