Hi

Yes, yes you are eligible for NEET even if you have studied Biology as an additional subject

This is because,

The eligibility of students with Biology as an additional subject  is in the supreme court but until it gives its judgement students, these students are eligible for neet

Here's the eligibility criteria for NEET :-

-----------) Qualification required :-As per Neet eligibility to be eligible you must be either appearing for 12th board examination  or should have passed 12th board examination with physics, chemistry ,biology/biotechnology and English as core subject.

†††Important Note :- Students who have passed Biology as an additional subject are also provisionally eligible for neet until Supreme Court gives its judgement.

-----------)  Percentage required :- You must get

• at least 50 % in aggregate of PCB i.e Physics, Chemistry and Biology/Biotechnology in 12th examination if belongs to general category

• at least 40% in aggregate of PCB if belongs to st/Obc/ Sc

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

-----------)  Age limit :-to be eligible for neet  one has to be at least 17 years old or more by 31st December in the year of appearing for the examination . There is no upper age limit as of now as the case of upper age limit of 25 years is pending in supreme court since 2018.
