Hi there.

Yes, you can appear in all medical entrance examinations of India. I am a resident of Kolkata and many of my friends belonging to the state board who had Biology as an optional subject are studying in institutes like RG Kar Medical College and IPGMER after cracking NEET with flying colors. 

Hence, you are totally eligible to write examinations like NEET, JIPMER & AIIMS.

All the best!
