I had PCB in 12 but in my online result biology was indicated additional.Can I appear neet?

Hi Rajesh,

As per the new NEET eligibility criteria, “study of Biology/Bio-technology as an additional subject at 10+2 level shall not be permissible”. It debars candidates who did not opt for Biology in Class 11 but took it only in Class 12 to be able to appear for entrance examinations requiring Biology scores, along with those candidates who completed Class XII without Biology but opted for it later in compartment as an additional improvement paper to enhance their overall Class 12 score. If you have studied Physics, Chemistry, Biology and English in Class 11 as well, and have cleared each of these in your Class 12 final exam while securing an aggregate of 50% in Physics, Chemistry and Biology, you need not worry. You will be able to appear for NEET as no documentary proof is required proving you did not take Biology as an additional subject in Class XII. Even during All India Quota counselling, you don’t have to submit documents online. Only at the time of reporting to your allotted college you have to bring with you your admit cards as well as your Class XII marksheets. And in order to prove that Biology was not an additional subject, you could bring your Class 11 admit card and marksheet as well. Your admit card will prove that you studied Biology as a main subject. So you are good to go. Good luck!!
