Hi Shubha,

To get admission in MBBS through NEET, your eligibility is determined mainly by your overall academic performance, particularly in your 12th-grade subjects, and your NEET score. Here's how it works based on your academic record:

Eligibility Criteria for NEET Admission

1. Minimum Percentage in 12th Grade:

- For General category students, you normally need a minimum of 50% aggregate marks in Physics, Chemistry, and Biology put together in your 12th-grade exams.

- For SC/ST/OBC candidates, the aggregate is 40%.

- Your overall percentage of 45% is below the minimum requirement for general category candidates. However, if you're from a reserved category, you may still qualify for NEET eligibility as long as you meet the category-specific requirement.

2. Subject-Specific Marks:

- Physics-56%, Chemistry-44%, and Biology-54% marks look fairly alright for NEET eligibility so far, provided your aggregate is above the cutoff as of your category.

The score in Biology is satisfactory for NEET eligibility.

3. NEET Examination:

- NEET eligibility does not rely on your board percentage. You are eligible for NEET if you meet the minimum aggregate marks in your 12th subjects.

- Your NEET score will be the determining factor after you get your score in securing a seat in MBBS.

What You Can Do

- If you come from a reserved category SC/ST/OBC, even then, you may be entitled to appear for NEET and be considered for the admissions.

- Coming from the General category, you'd have to pursue other routes like that of reattempting 12th class to get an improved aggregate marks or go for other medical entrance tests whose eligibility criteria differ

Conclusion:

If you are from a reserved category and get the marks that fulfill the eligibility criteria for NEET, then you are eligible to give the NEET exam. But if you belong to the General category, then the percentage in your 12th grade might not fulfill the eligibility criteria for NEET. Check the official NEET guidelines for the latest and accurate eligibility criteria for your category.

Hello,

4. Genetics and Evolution : Mendel’s laws, molecular basis of inheritance, and evolution concepts.
5. 
   
6. Biology and Human Welfare : Topics on human health, diseases, and microbes in human welfare.
7. 
   
8. Biotechnology : Principles, processes, and applications of biotechnology.
9. 
   
10. Ecology and Environment : Ecosystems, biodiversity, conservation, and environmental issues.
11. 
    

Refer to your respective education board's website (e.g., CBSE or state board) for the detailed syllabus.

Hope this helps you,

Thank you

Hello aspirant,

Students will use the CBSE Class 12 Biology Syllabus 2024–25 as their guide for the remainder of the academic year. The CBSE Biology Syllabus 2024–25 states that 20% of the curriculum is devoted to analysis, evaluation, and creation, 30% to the application of knowledge and concepts, and 50% to demonstrating knowledge and understanding. Thus, when preparing for your board test, it becomes crucial to follow the Class 12 syllabus.

Hi Honey,

As an IB student giving the NIOS on-demand exam and opting for Transfer of Credit, it is important to select the subjects wisely as in accordance with your aspirations in NEET. Here is the step to take the correct call:

Subjects for Transfer of Credit (TOC)
The subject can be transferred to their account with up to two subjects where they have really performed well. According to their IB marks, it has been considered good selections for TOC as listed below:

Hindi (4): As it’s your highest score, transferring this credit ensures you can focus on NEET-related subjects.
English (3): Since language subjects are not required for NEET, transferring English is logical and reduces your workload.
Subjects for On-Demand Examination
To become eligible for NEET, you must have scored at least 50% aggregate marks in Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and English in the 12th-grade equivalent (40% for reserved categories). Considering your scores and concentration on NEET, for NIOS you have to choose following:

Biology (3): It is biology-saturated for NEET so make a strong base, prepare hard for this particular subject.
Chemistry (2): It is definitely required for NEET. Score well on this subject.
Mathematics/Physics (3): Pick one according to your convenience and capability. If you find it easier, it can actually complement your scores and cut down your workload. Else, physics is part and parcel of NEET, so put it first if needed.
Plan
Focus on Core Subjects for NEET: Be fully prepared for Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. All these are the pillars to success in NEET.
Use TOC Smartly: Transferring Hindi and English saves time and keeps you focused on science subjects.
Plan Your Study Schedule:
Spend 50% of your study hours on Biology because it carries significant weightage in NEET.
Divide the remaining hours between Chemistry and Physics or Mathematics.
Steps to Follow
Apply for NIOS On-Demand Examination: Select Biology, Chemistry, and Physics/Mathematics as subjects for the on-demand exams.
Apply for TOC: Add your Hindi and English IB scores.
Study Strategically:
Biology: Refer to NCERT books for Biology, Chemistry, and Physics.
Solve NEET-oriented questions and previous years' papers.
You can now better streamline your preparation and enhance eligibility by focusing on NEET subjects in your NIOS exams and using TOC for non-NEET subjects.

If you're a Biology-Computer Science stream student in Class 12 and want to pursue a B.Sc Economics with Statistics without having taken Maths or Economics in 12th, you can consider colleges that offer admission based on your overall percentage in the science stream, and might not strictly require those subjects. Here are a few universities to explore:

You can consider Delhi University some colleges under Delhi University like the "Department of Economics" might consider your overall percentage in the science stream for admission to B.Sc Economics with Statistics,

Candidates coming from science background and who does not studied economics as a main subject in class 12 then 2 % will be deduct from their percentage in delhi University colleges like SRCC , LSR , HINDU , HANSRAJ and STEPHENS % they take admission on 12gh qualifying marks which is more than 98 percent.

You can also go for other options University of Hyderabad,University of Mumbai, Jadavpur University,amu etc.

work hard ....!! best of luck...

Hello there,

Yes, having two certificates is acceptable for NEET, provided they meet the eligibility criteria for PCB (Physics, Chemistry, and Biology). You can use your regular +2 PCM certificate along with the NIOS Biology certificate. Ensure both are valid and recognized.

Steps:

1. Enroll in NIOS for Biology and appear for the October 2025 exam.
2. Submit both certificates during NEET counseling.
3. Achieve the required PCB aggregate (50% for General, 40% for reserved categories).

Focus on NEET preparation alongside NIOS Biology to meet all requirements.

Yes, even if you are a student from a Hindi medium, you can answer the UP Board 12th Exam in English. The UP board allows students to choose the medium to write their examination. During the registration process, students can declare whether they want to answer the paper in Hindi or English. Make sure to maintain consistency while writing the paper; if you start in English, you can not switch back to Hindi.

Hello Gokul,

To prepare effectively for your Biology exam with a goal of achieving 100% and a focused study time from 3:00 AM to 6:00 AM, follow this schedule and plan:

Yes definitely you can, most universities consider Biology or Mathematics as Index factors for Science stream so you can go ahead and do Psychology honours pos which you will have to do an MSc in Clinical Psychology.

The exams you'll have to give are the college/university addmission exams for your desired college or university.

Hello there,

Yes, you are eligible for a B.Sc. in Computer Science even if you studied Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Computer Science in Class 12. Most universities and colleges offering B.Sc. Computer Science require candidates to have studied Mathematics or Computer Science at the 10+2 level. Since you have Computer Science, you fulfill the eligibility criteria for many institutions.

However, specific eligibility criteria vary by college, so confirm with the institution you are applying to. Some may require Mathematics as a mandatory subject, while others accept students based on their overall science background and interest in Computer Science.
