Hello there!

Greetings!

Actually to be eligible for neet ; only your aggregate marks in Physics, Chemistry and Biology i.e pcb is considered. So, your maths marks cannot help you in making you eligible for neet examination, so try to get at least 50% aggregate in pcb in your class 12th board examination if you belong to general category. Also its not like that if you score more in maths in comparison of biology then biology will become additional subject,  it will be still the main subject and maths will be still the additional subject as choosed by you during class 12th registration but yes  even biology as an additional subject is acceptable for neet examination,  so you don't need to worry at all.

You can check the neet eligibility criteria provided below :-

  • You should get at least 50 % aggregate in pcb in your class 12th board examination from a recognized board if you belong to general category ; while it's only 40% aggregate in pcb for obc, sc and st categories , 45 % aggregate in pcb for pwd category.

  • To be eligible for Neet 2020 you need to be at least 17 years old by December 31st, 2020 .

  • There's no upper age limit for neet 2020.

  • There's no attempt limit for neet examination.

  • Students appearing for Class 12 th boards in 2020 are also eligible for neet 2020.

  • Nios, private students are also eligible for neet 2020.
