Hello www.sudharsonss

No.

NEET score is required for admission to MBBS and BDS courses.

Biotechnology is a graduation/engineering level course hence neet marks are not required .

For admission to BSc course in government or private institutes you’d require either your Class 12th board marks or there could be separate examination for the same, depending on the university or college.

For B.Tech in biotechnology in IITs/NITs you need to give JEE, for admission in government and (some private institutes). Most private institutes, however, conduct a separate examination.

Dear Student,

No, it is not required to write neet entrance exam for taking admission in Bsc biotechnology as NEET is only required for MBBS/BDS.You don't need to worry as biotechnology in bachelor's of Science or in bachelor's of technology does not demand neet exam.You can take admission based on 12th class minimum criteria and entrance exam specific to particular college or institute.The eligibility criteria is given below

  • Candidate needs to have a minimum combined score of 50% (45% for SC/ST candidates) at both Higher Secondary and Senior Secondary levels.
  • Candidate should have studied Physics, Biology and Chemistry as main subjects at 10+2 level with a minimum combined score of 60% in all three.
