The eligibility criteria for NEET is provided below:

  1. The candidate is required to pass the 10+2 examinations & must have English as one of the subject followed by Physics. Chemistry & Biology.
  2. To be eligible for NEET, the student need to secure the undermentioned marks in aggregate for PCB:
  • UR - 50%,
  • OBC/SC/ST - 40%,

  • PWD - 45%

So without English you aren't eligible for the NEET.

Hi

Without English in 12th , you aren't eligible for neet.

This is because,

It's mandatory to have studied and passed English in 12th to be eligible for neet

For your reference,

Here's the eligibility criteria for NEET :-

-------------------) Qualification required :-As per Neet eligibility to be eligible you must be either appearing for 12th board examination  or should have passed 12th board examination from any recognised board with physics, chemistry ,biology/biotechnology and English as core subject.

†††Important Note :- Students with Biology as an additional subject are also provisionally eligible for neet until Supreme Court gives its judgement over it.

-------------------)  Percentage required :- You must get

  • at least 50 % in aggregate of PCB i.e Physics, Chemistry and Biology/Biotechnology in 12th examination if belongs to general category

  • at least 40% in aggregate of PCB if belongs to st/Obc/ Sc

  • at least 45 % in aggregate of PCB in case of pwd candidates to be eligible.


-------------------)  Age limit :-

  • Lower age limit:- to be eligible for neet  one has to be at least 17 years old or more by 31st December in the year of appearing for the examination .

  • Upper age limit :-There's no upper age limit for NEET. Earlier there was upper age limit  of 25 years which was pending in supreme court, on 9th march 2022 NMC in its notice has removed upper age limit.
