Sir, I have scored 51 in Physics and 50 in Chemistry and 64 in Biology. Am I eligible for preparing NEET/AIIMS/WBJEE MEDICAL entrance exam? What is the procedure to apply for all these entrance?

1. For admission in central government or state medical colleges, National Eligibility cum Entrance Test scorecard is necessary. States do not conduct common entrance test for admission in Medical courses.

2. The minimum percentage of marks required to apply for NEET exam is 50% marks in 12th board exam with Physics, Chemistry and Biology as compulsory subjects.

First thing I would like to let you know is that from 2016, WBJEE has no role in undergraduate admissions in medical degree courses and admission in the same is held only through NEET.

Further, for appearing in NEET, you need to manage overall aggregate of at least 50% in all subjects pursued at the Class 12th level while for AIIMS MBBS entrance examination, your overall aggregate must be 60%. Also, in both the cases marks relaxation upto 10% is allowed for reserved category candidates.

Hence, your eligibility for above mentioned examinations depends on overall aggregate managed by you in your Class 12th not only on marks managed in PCB group.

Further, to apply for NEET and AIIMS MBBS entrance examination, you need to fill their application form by referring to their respective official links which are www.ntaneet.nic.in and www.aiimsexams.org during the application period.

The minimum score required in science subjects to be eligibe to apply for NEET is 50. The candidate must have an aggregate of minimum 50% marks in 12th standard with PCB subjects.
Candidates must have minimum 50 marks individually in Physics, Chemistry and Biology.

Minimum Marks required in Science subjects to apply for AIIMS:

Candidates must have minimum 60% aggregate of marks in PCB (Physis, Chemistry, Biology).

Minimum Marks required in science subjects to apply for WB-JEE:

Candidates must have minimum 45% aggregate of marks in PCB (Phsyics, Chemistry, Biology).

For NEET - Students must have secured minimum 50% marks in PCB group for general candidates and 45% for general-PH and 40% for SC/ST/OBC candidates.

For WBJEE - There is no required percentage for attempting JEE Mains. Though you require minimum of 75% aggregate and 75% individual in physics, chemistry and maths to clear the eligibility criteria for getting admission in any of the NIT.
