Dear Atul, you cannot be eligible under General Quota. You will be considered under NRI Quota if one of your parenrts is NRI and residing abroad as a NRI. Any seats remaining after exhausting NRI quota in meducal colleges will be converted to normal fee seats. But you can only apply under NRI quota.

Thanks for the quick response, so just be clear that if 11th grade is done from US and 12th from India should still be fine. Please also note that in US they have semester system and in 11th grade will have only physics and chemistry as I have already biology and physiology and anatomy in 10th grade. Will I still be eligible for general quota if score 50+% in 12th grade from India. Thanks again
