Hello Aspirant,

With Autism Spectrum Disorder of 46% you are eligible for admission to MBBS course but you are not eligible for PwD quota this is because as per the Guidelines regarding admission of students with "Specified Disabilities" under the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016 with respect to admission in MBBS course. According to this act a candidate is eligible for admission to MBBS course but note for PwD quota and the condition here is "Absence or Mild Disability, Asperger syndrome(disability of up to 60% as per ISAA) where the individual is fit for MBBS course by an expert panel."


If you are preparing for NEET 2022 for which around 4-5 months are left from now so I am enlisting down some preparation tips which would help you in binding up your preparation effectively :-


******* Very first thing is go through the syllabus of NEET and categorize it as difficult average and easy and then start revision from easy then average then difficult chapter and follow this pattern regularly .

******* Go for the best study material which can make you more confident while solving the question of NEET because it will boost your moral

******* Don't forget to revise the notes because it will help you in memorizing the important things as you have not much time to read whole books.

******* Practice previous year's question papers and sample papers as many as you can because it will enhance your self-confidence and time management skill

Hi

You are eligible for mbbs with 46% Autism spectrum disability but not eligible for pwd reservation

This is because,

For Autism spectrum disorders

  • With less than 60% disability with Autism spectrum disorders, candidate is eligible for mbbs but not for pwd quota
  • With more than 60% disability with Autism spectrum disorders, candidate is not eligible for mbbs
  • There's no pwd quota reservation for Autism spectrum disability.

You can check the same on page no 89 of neet 2021 information brochure .

Neet information brochure 2021 download link :-https://ntaneet.nic.in/webinfo/File/GetFile?FileId=2&LangId=P

To help you further,

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 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

  • 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 .

  • Upper age limit :-The upper age limit  is 25 years as on the date of neet examination and there's relaxation of 5 years for obc ncl/SC/ST /PwBD students means upper age limit is 30 years for these categories.

†††† But since 2018, the case of upper age limit is pending in supreme court , and so there's no upper age limit as of now until supreme court gives its judgement over it.
