As per the new rules,even private candidates are eligible for appearing in NEET exam.You just have to full fill the eligibility criteria which is-

1) if you belong to general category then you should have 50% aggregate marks in PCB and if you belong to obc/sc/st category then you should have 40% aggregate marks in PCB in 12th board.
