Hello there,
Yes, you can take
Biology as a single subject
from
NIOS (National Institute of Open Schooling)
to become eligible for exams like
NEET, JIPMER, and other pharma-related courses
.
Key Points to Consider:
-
Eligibility for NEET & JIPMER:
-
NEET requires
Physics, Chemistry, and Biology (PCB)
in
Class 12
.
-
Since you completed
MPC (Maths, Physics, Chemistry)
, adding
Biology from NIOS
will make you eligible.
-
JIPMER follows the same eligibility as NEET.
-
NEET requires
Physics, Chemistry, and Biology (PCB)
in
Class 12
.
-
Acceptance of NIOS Biology:
-
NIOS is recognized
by
NMC (National Medical Commission)
, so it is valid for
NEET & medical courses
.
-
However,
some private colleges
may have restrictions on NIOS students, so check specific college requirements.
Alternative Options:
-
Instead of NIOS, you can
reappear for 12th with PCB
from a regular board, but it takes more time.
-
If you are interested in
pharma-related courses (B.Pharm, D.Pharm)
,
MPC is enough
, and Biology is not mandatory in most colleges.
Next Steps:
-
Enroll in
NIOS On-Demand Examination (ODE)
for
Biology
to complete it quickly.
-
After passing, apply for
NEET 2026
,
JIPMER
, or
other medical-related courses
.
