Hi everyone, I have secured 49.9% marks in my 10th standard which I did from CBSE Board. I want to study MBBS course after my Higher Secondary. So, will there be problems in securing admission for MBBS course with this percentage of marks?

MBBS stands for Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery and for admission in MBBS degree course one has to qualify either NEET or AIIMS MBBS entrance examination or JIPMER MBBS entrance examination.

Also, for appearing in any of the three mentioned examination, one is required to completed his/her Class 12th in Science stream with PCB group with at least 50% marks ( or 60% marks in case of AIIMS MBBS entrance examination ) from a recognized board of education. Marks relaxation of 10% is allowed for reserved category candidates.

So, having completed your Class 10th with less than 50% marks, you do not have to worry about your eligibility for MBBS admissions as the eligibility for same is based on the performance in Class 12th and MBBS admission test.
