If you are appearing for NEET next year, then you are good right now because MHRD is going to reduce the syllabus for NEET 2021 due to the reduced Academic year owing to Corona. As of now there is no official information regarding the topics that might be excluded and the topics that might be included. So we have to wait to hear from either MHRD or NTA. So the first benefit is that you will have reduced syllabus. And secondly more Medical Colleges will add up. For example, Andhra Pradesh alone as a State is going to get 17 MBBS Colleges which means the no.of seats available will be better. This is just about AP and this will also happen across all States. So the ratio of no.of Candidates appearing for the exam to the no.of seats available will be much better. . So to be eligible for NEET, you should have completed your 12th, passed in all subjects and secure a minimum aggregate of 50% in Physics, Chemistry and Biology. It is 50% for General Category, 45% for PWD and 40% for OBC,SC,ST. Now if you belong to OBC Category, the Category you belong to should be also listed in the Central OBC list. Or else you will be considered as General Category and so you have to secure a minimum aggregate of 50% in Physics, Chemistry and Biology. This 50% is inclusive of the Theory and Practical marks scored in Physics, Chemistry and Biology collectively. You needn't score 50% in Physics, 50% in Chemistry and 50% in Biology separately. You need an aggregate of 50% or 40% depending on your Category as an aggregate in Physics, Chemistry and Biology. And along with Physics, Chemistry and Biology, you should also have studied English as one of the core subjects in your 12th.
