i have already passed 12th from Maharashtra board in 2018. can i again give 12th from cbse or any other board to improve my marks,if yes how? i am really very worried i want to give neet and want to increase my marks so that i will get eligible for neet(gen 50%criteria).
NEET 2024: Cutoff (OBC, SC, ST & General Category)
NEET 2024 Admission Guidance: Personalised | Study Abroad
NEET 2025: Syllabus | Most Scoring concepts | NEET PYQ's (2015-24)
So you want to improve your score in order to be eligible for NEET. Yes you can do this. You can do your 12th again and again sit in the board exams.
You can also choose to give board examination only for those subjects that are required in NEET i.e Physics, Chemistry, Biology and English and improve your overall aggregate.
You can appear for board examination for the subjects PCB and English through National Institute of open schooling (NIOS). This pattern is called On-demand examination system or ODE.
Hope this answers your query
All the best :)
Hello Aspirant,
Yes you can do so, you can appear for 12th again from any open board or else I would recommend you to only appear for PCB subjects from any recognized open board and there is a scheme called ODE (On-Demand Examination) conducted by NIOS so you can appear for this as well and improve your aggregate in PCB, so that you don't need to appear again for class 11th and 12th.
For 10+2 or equivalent you need to have a minimum aggregate in PCB as per your category which is described below and also you need to pass overall in 10+2 or equivalent :-
>>>>> You need to pass separately in theory as well as in practical of PCB.
>>>>> If you belongs to General/UR category then your aggregate of PCB (Theory + Practical) should be equal to or more than 50% (40% for SC/ST/OBC and 45% for PwD).
>>>>> You should be pass in English subject as well.
>>>>> Your minimum age should be more that or equal to 17 years by December 31st of the examination year, as per the current eligibility criteria.
>>>>> Now there is no upper age limit for NEET UG.
