Hi

No, your overall % obtained by you in  class 12th is not considered, you just need to have at least passed your class twelfth  , only your aggregate % in PCB is taken in account for considering your eligibility as -

Eligibility criteria says that to be eligible for neet, you should have passed 12th board examination with physics, chemistry ,biology/biotechnology and English and must have got:-

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

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

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

For detailed information about neet examination eligibility go through our page for which link is provided below; -

Now that,

limited time is left for neet 2021 , so you should be focusing on your preparation,

  • practising chapterwise questions

  • then revising the chapters,

  • solve at least previous 10 year neet question papers as concept behind the question often gets repeated in the examination so it will be of great help in your preparation  ,

  • go through neet mock test papers as it will let you know your preparation level and and weak areas so that you can work on them and perform well in your examination.To help you in your preparation we have neet knockout for you :- https://learn.careers360.com/knockout-neet-

Hey,

You need to have 50% aggregate in Physics, Chemistry and Biology(not overall) if you belong to General category in NEET. Moreover, PWD Candidates need to have 45% aggregate marks in PCB in class 12 while 40% marks are for reserved categories(OBC/SC/ST).

So, as it is clear from above that you need to have 50% aggregate marks in PCB not in overall in class 12. Moreover, you need to qualify class 12 from a recognized board.
