Hi

Yes, you are eligible for Neet examination even if you have 49 marks in 12th board examination in English.

This is because,

To be eligible for Neet there is no minimum percentage requirement in English you need to have just studied and passed English in 12th board examination as Neet eligibility criteria says that

You must pass 12th board examination with physics, chemistry ,biology/biotechnology and English and must have got:-

  • at least  40%  in aggregate of PCB if belongs to st/Obc/ Sc

  • at least  50  % in aggregate of PCB  i.e Physics, Chemistry and Biology/Biotechnology  in 12th examination  if belongs to general category

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


So, if you meet this percentage requirement in PCB aggregate as per your category then you're eligible for Neet examination even if you have got 49 marks in English

Also,

* to be eligible for neet 2021 one has to be at least 17 years old or more by 31st December 2021

Hello Aspirant,

See merely from your marks in English subject it is quite difficult to tell whether you are eligible for NEET or not because you can appear for NEET 2021 if you have passed your class 12th/PUC with Physics, Biology and Chemistry as mandatory subjects and also you should have your minimum aggregate of 50% separately in theory as well as practical part for Unreserved category, 40% for OBC/SC/ST and 45% for PwD certificate holders. Also note that in your curriculum English subject should also be there.

As there is no upper age limit for NEET but there is minimum age limit for NEET which is 17 years which means that if you want to appear for NEET 2021 the you must have completed your 17 years on December 31st 2021, if all above eligibility criteria are fulfilled by you then you can appear for NEET UG 2021.
