Hello,

That would be a problem, according to the criteria you should have passed all the subjects with the following scores.

To fulfill the NEET eligibility criteria , candidate must have passed in Physics, Chemistry, Biology/Bio-technology and English. The candidates belonging to General Category should score a minimum of 50% marks in Class 12 .
Candidates who belong to Scheduled Caste/Scheduled Tribes or Other Backward Classes (OBC) should score a minimum of 40% in their Class 12.

One should have a clear pass in 5 subjects in class 12th board including physics, chemistry, biology to be eligible.


Hope it helps.

Hello Kiran

It is a very valid question and comes in mind of everyone who gave entrance examinations. But you should not worry about this. 

As per CBSE, a student need to pass in 5 subjects, including the three major subjects (eg PCM/PCB) and English. If a person has taken another subject (eg phycology, geography, maths etc) as a 6th (optional) subject and fails in it , he/she will still pass 12th boards. 

As the percentage calculated does not include the 6th subject. You can apply anywhere you want a long as you don't fail in your 3 major and one language subject. 

It also applies in the case when you fail in the 5th subject but pass in 6th subject. You will still be considered pass
