Hello,

No, If you are General category student and secured 49.3 percent in 12th PCB so you are not eligible for NEET Exam.

Hi


Which category do you belong to?

To be eligible for neet, you should have passed 12th board examination with physics, chemistry ,biology/biotechnology and English and must have got:-


  • 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  Obc/ Sc /st category

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

Now,

Your aggregate in Physics, Chemistry and Biology/Biotechnology  is

= 49.3 % i.e lesser than 50% , but more than 40 % so you are not eligible for Neet if you belong to general category but if you belong to OBC/ SC or St category then yes you are eligible for Neet examination

Also,

* to be eligible for neet one has to be at least 17 years old  by 31st December  of the year of appearing

* There is no upper age limit for Neet as of now.

* There's no limit for the maximum number of attempts/times one can appear in NEET.
