Hello student,

Yes, You are eligible provided that you have got minimum aggregate 55% in Physics, Chemistry and Biology/Biotechnology. As you said you have got 59% so I am thinking that you have got 55%+ in these required subjects too.

Please note that as you have not mentioned your category so I am considering you as General candidate, if you are from reserved category then you will get some relaxation in the minimum required percentage. They get 10% relaxation in the minimum required percentage so that 55% become 45% for them.

Having said that you should also fulfil the other eligibility criteria. Your age should be above atleast 17 by 31st December in the year you are opting to appear for NEET. There is no upper age limit as such.

To know the eligibility criteria in detail, you can go through the link below.

All the very best!!
