Hello Aspirant,

No, if you have received grace marks in Physics or Chemistry in your Higher Secondary (HS) results, you will still be able to participate in the NEET counselling process as an ST candidate. For NEET counselling you need to satisfy the following requirements:

1. To qualify for NEET counselling you must have passed Physics, Chemistry and Biology (individually).
2. You must meet the NEET eligibility cutoff (40th percentile for ST candidates).
3. You must meet the appropriate 40% aggregate in PCB subjects (for ST candidates).

As long as you cleared the subjects and satisfy your NEET and academic eligibility, you won't get disallowed from counselling due to grace marks.

Hello there,

If you got grace marks in Physics and Chemistry in your HS results but have cleared the NEET exam, it generally will not affect your medical counseling for the ST category.

Here’s why:

1. NEET Qualification is Key : Clearing NEET with the required cutoff for your category (ST) is the main eligibility.
   
   

2. Passing Criteria : As long as your board declares you passed, including grace marks, your eligibility stands.
   
   

3. Counseling Focus : Medical counseling mostly looks at NEET rank and valid passing certificates, not the detailed marks.
   
   

4. Reservation Benefits : Being ST category helps in reserved seat allocation regardless of grace marks.

So, having grace marks should not cause any problem during medical admission counseling.

I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries, feel free to share your questions with us, and we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you, and I wish you all the best in your bright future.

Hi,

yes, you are still eligible for NEET admission even if you got grace marks in Physics and Chemistry — as long as you meet the minimum qualifying criteria :

You must have passed 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry, Biology/Biotech, and English as core subjects.
You need at least 50% marks (for General) , 40% (for SC/ST/OBC) in PCB combined.

Grace marks don’t disqualify you, but your final PCB aggregate should meet NEET eligibility.
