Hello aspirant
You are not eligible for appearing NEET as your PCB score is 139. Minimum PCB marks are 150. You will have to reappear for the exam in subject you scored very less or if you have given your biology paper for rechecking , you will have to wait. This year no updates are there about re- exam or class improvement exams. You will have to wait for further information. There is no other option.

Mitali, 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. With 46%, you fall short of being eligible for NEET if you belong to General Categor. Now regarding the improvement exams, it is not quite clear at this point in time as to when might they be conducted because the Pandemic needs to be brought under control. Until then we can only hope reevaluation helps you.
