Hello there,

Hope you are doing well. I'll list the eligibility criteria for you below :

• Candidates must have passed 10+2 or equivalent with Physics, Chemistry, Biology/Biotechnology and English as core subjects from a recognized board.

• Class 12 or equivalent appearing aspirants are also eligible to apply for NEET.

The class 12 percentage required for NEET 2021 exam is separate for each category and can be listed as under. NEET eligibility marks in class 12 to be considered are aggregate marks only for PCB subjects

• UR - 50%,

• OBC/SC/ST - 40%,

  Recommended

• PWD - 45%

If you are fulfilling the above criteria,you are eligible to appear to NEET . As you mentioned that you have passed with NIOS and have an aggregate of 60% ,you are eligible to appear in the exam .

Hope my answer helped.

Hi

As of now recognised open board students like NIOS are eligible for Neet examination.

No, the percentage requirement in PCB to be eligible for Neet is not different for NIOS board, it is same for all the boards , thus if you are from general category then you need at least 50% in aggregate of PCB in your NIOS board to be eligible for Neet

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 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 .

-----------)  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 .

• 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.

-----------) There's no attempt limit for neet.
