Hi
You are eligible with Grace marks for neet examination provided you fulfill rest of the eligibility criteria.
This is because,
It doesn't matter whether you have passed your chemistry examination with Grace marks or without grace marks, what matters is that you have passed in your chemistry
For your reference,
Here's the eligibility criteria for NEET :-
-------------------) Qualification required :-As per Neet eligibility to be eligible one must be either appearing for 12th board examination or should have passed 12th board examination from any recognised board with physics, chemistry ,biology/biotechnology and English as core subject.
†††Important Note :- Students with Biology as an additional subject are also provisionally eligible for neet until Supreme Court gives its judgement over it.
-------------------) 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.
So, if you fulfill this criteria then you are definitely eligible even if you have passed with grace marks .
-------------------) Age limit :-
-
Lower 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 .
