Admission to medical colleges in India is given on the basis of NEET UG scores. Students who secure the NEET UG cutoff marks have to appear for the online counselling of 15% AIQ and 85% state quota seats. Admission to medical colleges can be challenging for students with low NEET scores, but not impossible. Several medical colleges in India accept admission even with low NEET scores.

Hello aspirant,
You cannot rely only on NEET preparation to clear TS EAPCET . NEET covers Physics and Chemistry deeply but TS EAPCET also includes Intermediate IPE syllabus strictly , with questions directly based on textbooks concepts and formulas. Biology is needed for NEET , while EAPCET needs strong Maths for engineering streams. If you plan to attempt both , prepare NEET concepts thoroughly and separately revise IPE-LEVEL Maths, Physics, Chemistry for EAPCET , along with previous year papers.
