Dear Sudipa,
You have to get 40% marks in Physics + Chemistry + Biology according to CBSE for OBC category students.

Thank You.

Hi Sudipa!

You will be eligible if you haven’t failed a subject and you get 40% aggregate in PCB subjects since you’re in OBC category.

Hope this answers your question!

According the guidelines given by cbse, A Candidates must secure minimum 50% marks (GEN), 40% marks (SC/ST/OBC), 45% marks (GEN PH) & 40% marks (SC-PH/ST-PH/OBC-PH) taken together in PCB subjects.

So in your case it is 40% aggregate in PCB subjects.

All the best !

According to the official notification of neet ug, the minimum aggregate percentage in class 12 th for giving neet ug exam for obc category candidates is 40%.

If you fulfill the criteria , you are surely eligible for giving the exam..


Good luck .

Your total aggregate in PCB has to be above 40%.
Individual aggregates of every subject do not matter.
You're eligible for appearing for NEET-UG examination.

Individual marks of subjects don't matter. Your total percentage in PCB should be at least 40% as per your category. If it is so, you are eligible.
