Biology is the core subject.

Firstly to qualify to take admission you need 50% marks in HSC

Then in NEET out of 720, biology has share of 360 marks.

So without biology you can't opt for exam for medical

Call do you question is not very clear let me make it very clear to you that unless you have physics chemistry and Biology at your class 12 board examination level you cannot be appearing for Neet examination

Dear Zahan, that's hard to believe. As you have taken science there has to be biology as your subject. The qualification for your neet depends on how much you get in pcb combined in your boards exam. You have to get 50% marks atleast in order to be eligible for your neet exam. So all the best for your exams and give it your best my friend.

Greetings,

For appearing in NEET or National Eligibility cum Entrance Examination, you need to prepare for three subjects namely Physics, Chemistry and Biology. Without these three subjects you cannot appear in the NEET UG. Your board marks in these three subjects will also be taken into account for NEET UG.

If you have not taken Biology then you cannot apply for Medicals. If your selected subjects are Physics, Chemistry and Maths then you are eligible to apply for Engineering from any of the examinations available but not for Medicals.

Be assured that there will be an option for PCB in the examination and not PCM.

Feel free to refer back in case you need any further assistance.

Hey Zahan,



You have to have Biology as your core subjects in 11th and 12th. There is no other way around it! To be elligible to answer any Medical entrance exams, you need to study biology at Higher Secondary Level. You will be unable to apply for any Medical Examination, whether it is NEET, AIIMS or JIPMER. You can take PCMB, if you want to keep your options open. If you want to apply for the Medical line, you will have to switch to a school that offers biology as a core subject or an additional subject and that is affliated to a recognized University.



All the Best!
