Hi Madhavi

Greetings

No,the marks of 11th & 12th std have don't have any role in qualifying for the NEET entrance exam.

It completely depends to the marks and rank obtained in the NEET exam and later to the exam cutoffs.

But,the marks of the 10+2 is a criteria to be eligible for the NEET examination.

A candidate must passed their 10+2 in Physics Chemistry and Biology/Biotechnology from a well recognised board.

The percentage requirement for NEET in PCB is as followed:

UR/EWS-50%
OBC/SC/ST- 40%
UR(PH)- 45%

Hello

No, neither of 11th nor 12th marks is considered for qualifying neet, neet cut off marks is purely on the marks obtained by you in neet examination, there's no 11th /12th marks weightage in neet examination .

Even your admission in mbbs etc is purely based on neet marks, 11th /12th marks have absolutely no role.

But yes,

Your 12th marks are important in order to make you eligible.
