The 100 total score includes both theory and practical examination of a subject. For example, in most of the boards, 70 marks are for theoretical examination and 30 marks are for practical examinations which makes it 100 total score. Now in 70 marks, the passing marks is 23 while for 30 marks the passing marks is 9. So in this 100 marks, if you have met all the pass marks, you are eligible for Neet 2021. To be eligible for Neet, you have Neet you have to qualify both the theory and practical examination of Physics, Chemistry and Biology. And this three subjects combine upto 300 marks in total where you have got 161 (56, 46 and 59) which means your PCB percentage is 53.67%. The minimum PCB percentage is 50% for general category and 40% for OBC, SC and ST Candidates and 45% for PwD candidates. Now if you have qualified both theory and practical exams of PCB, you are eligible for Neet. Go through the link http://medicine.careers360.com/articles/neet-eligibility-criteria
