Hi
It's completely legal dear.
This is because,
It's not like you have given two regular board examination in the same year if that was the case then this would have been illegal but this isn't the case with you as you have passed 12th from state board in 2020 and cbse board in 2022 i. e different years so it's completely legal.

is there any chance to change the neet eligibility criteria in 2023? like 12th %? I got 56% in pcb
Hi,
I hope you are doing good. The eligibility criteria for NEET 2023 is, 50%(General candidates), 40%(SC/ST/OBC candidates) and 45% (PWD candidates) in PCB only.
You got 56% in PCB aggregate, which already satisfies the minimum criteria. Yes, you are eligible to appear in NEET-UG 2023 . I hope it clarifies your doubt.
Good luck for your exams! and Do your best!
Thank you!
girls nearby my village gone for neet coaching last yr nd it was their 1stdrop for neet nd if they get selected then what i will says to my parents bcoz i covered only 70% sylbs nd this is my 3rd drop i had wasted 1st 2drop nd aftr that everyone start comparing me with them? how to ovrcom this stres
Hi,
You are concern about your 3 drops and due to which you are taking stress.
First of all, concentrate on what has happened with you . You have already taken 3 drops, and I would not suggest you to take additional drops. I think you should revise your 70% syllabus thoroughly. It is really enough to get a decent score in NEET and have potential to give you admission in some good MBBS college.
I would suggest you to change your place of living and go and live with your parents instead!
Psychology prospective :
It is human nature to automatically start comparing oneself from others.To some extent, it is a good habit, as it keeps you motivated to do hard work.
But if it is leading you to overthinking and self-doubts, then you should free yourself from those conditions. Go and listen to some good music, make friends, spend some time with your parents and relatives.
Stop concentrating on those girls, and have faith on your 70% syllabus, you can CRACK IT!
I hope for your good future!
Thank you!
should I have to get pass mark to repeat neet another year?
Hello Aspirant,
There is no upper age limit for giving NEET examination. You can give another attempt if you didn't got enough marks first time.
Hope this helps!!
