Hi Bharath,

National Eligibility cum entrance test (NEET) is a national level entrance examination conducted by NTA every year to take admission of candidates in various colleges across India for medical courses.

There is no educational pre-requisite requirement to prepare for NEET. You can prepare for it as early as possible. The best time is considered to be class 11 and 12 since the syllabus for NEET and class 11&12 is same.

Hope it helps you.

Bharath, you can start preparing for NEET from your 11th standard. But to appear for NEET, you need to be atleast in your 12th standard. Because to be eligible for NEET, you should have completed your 12th, passed in all subjects and secure a minimum aggregate of 50% in Physics, Chemistry and Biology. It is 50% for General Category, 45% for PWD and 40% for OBC,SC,ST. Now if you belong to OBC Category, the Category you belong to should be also listed in the Central OBC list. Or else you will be considered as General Category and so you have to secure a minimum aggregate of 50% in Physics, Chemistry and Biology. This 50% is inclusive of the Theory and Practical marks scored in Physics, Chemistry and Biology collectively. You needn't score 50% in Physics, 50% in Chemistry and 50% in Biology separately. You need an aggregate of 50% or 40% depending on your Category as an aggregate in Physics, Chemistry and Biology. And along with Physics, Chemistry and Biology, you should also have studied English as one of the core subjects in your 12th.
