Hi

It doesn't matter even if admission in Aiims or any college is through neet,
Neet is just an entrance examination and nothing else. Colleges/ states can have a different eligibility criteria.

For example,
To be eligible for assam state counselling one must score at least get 60% in Physics, Chemistry and Biology if belongs to unreserved category while it is 50% for those who belongs to  reserved categories.

Similarly,
Aiims has a different eligibility criteria which is given below:-

to be eligible you must be either appearing for 12th board examination or should have passed 12th board examination with physics, chemistry ,biology and English and must have got:-

  • at least  60  % in aggregate of PCB and English   in 12th examination  if belongs to general /obc category

  • at least  50%  in aggregate of PCB and English if belongs to st/ Sc

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