Hello,
Yes, a PCM candidate can take the NEET examination provided they qualify by specific eligibility criteria. To take NEET, students need to have had studies in Biology or Biotechnology besides Physics and Chemistry while doing Class 12 in board exams. For people who had not covered biology in regular classes, appearing for biology as an auxiliary subject under NIOS (National Institute of Open Schooling) or some acknowledged state board will work well.
To be eligible, students have to achieve at least 50% aggregate marks in Physics, Chemistry, and Biology/ Biotechnology for the general category, whereas for SC/ST/OBC students, it would be 40% and for PwD, it is 45%. The qualifying examination in Biology must be done before NEET application deadlines. Please ensure relevant documents for the eligibility of Biology are kept ready for the application and counseling processes.
