Questions related to NIOS Class 12

Have a question related to NIOS Class 12 ?

Yes, you can definitely appear for the 12th again through NIOS with PCM subjects.

This will make you eligible for JEE exams.

However, your previous PCMB degree will still hold validity. It won't be replaced or affected by the new NIOS certificate. You'll essentially have two 12th certificates.

Important Considerations:

  • Time Management: Balancing NIOS studies and JEE preparation will be challenging.
  • Eligibility Criteria: Ensure you meet the specific eligibility criteria for JEE, especially regarding age limits and other requirements.
  • Exam Strategy: Develop a focused study plan to excel in both NIOS exams and JEE preparation.

Remember: While this is a potential path, carefully evaluate if it aligns with your long-term goals and if you're prepared for the academic and time commitment involved.

hope this helps you!!

Here are the key points regarding your query about appearing for NEET or IISER exams after passing 12th board in 2023 with 53% overall marks and appearing for biology improvement through NIOS:

1. NEET Eligibility:

- For NEET (National Eligibility cum Entrance Test), the minimum eligibility criteria is 50% marks in Physics, Chemistry, and Biology/Biotechnology subjects in the 12th board exam.

- Since your overall 12th board marks are 53%, you would be eligible to appear for NEET, provided you score at least 50% in the individual subjects of Physics, Chemistry, and Biology.

- Appearing for biology improvement through NIOS should not affect your NEET eligibility, as long as you meet the 50% criteria in the individual subjects.

2. IISER Eligibility:

- For admission to the Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research (IISERs), the eligibility criteria includes scoring a minimum of 60% marks in the 12th board exam (55% for SC/ST/PwD categories).

- With your overall 12th board marks being 53%, you would not meet the general category eligibility criteria for IISER.

- However, if you are able to improve your overall 12th board marks to 60% or above (55% for SC/ST/PwD) through the biology improvement exam, then you would become eligible to appear for the IISER Aptitude Test (IAT) 2024.

- For NEET, your 53% overall 12th board marks along with the 50% individual subject criteria should make you eligible, provided you clear the biology improvement exam.

- For IISER, your current 53% overall 12th board marks do not meet the 60% (55% for SC/ST/PwD) eligibility criteria. You would need to improve your overall marks to 60% or above to be eligible for the IISER Aptitude Test 2024.


I hope this helps provide clarity on your eligibility for NEET and IISER exams. Let me know if you have any other questions.



hello

Yes, it is theoretically possible to pursue engineering while simultaneously preparing for and attempting the NEET exam, and then switch to a medical college later. However, there are several important factors and considerations you should be aware of:


1. **Dual Enrollment and Exam Preparation**


- **Engineering Studies:** While you are enrolled in an engineering college, you will need to manage your time effectively to balance both your engineering coursework and NEET preparation. This can be challenging, as engineering programs can be demanding.


- **NIOS for Biology:** If you are pursuing the National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) for Biology to meet the eligibility requirements for NEET, ensure that you complete the necessary coursework and exams as per the NIOS schedule.

2. **Eligibility for NEET**


- **NEET Eligibility:** Ensure that you meet all the eligibility criteria for NEET, including the age limit, educational qualifications, and other requirements. NEET is typically open to students who have completed their 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry, and Biology.


- **Attempting NEET:** You can attempt NEET while being enrolled in an engineering college. Many students take a gap year or study part-time to prepare for competitive exams like NEET.

3. **Switching to Medical College**


- **Admission Process:** If you qualify for NEET and secure a place in a medical college, you would need to follow the admission process specific to that institution. This might involve withdrawing from your engineering program and fulfilling any other requirements of the medical college.


- **Credit Transfer:** Engineering credits and coursework generally do not transfer to medical college, so you would essentially be starting from scratch in the medical program.


4. **Considerations and Challenges**


- **Time Management:** Balancing engineering studies with NEET preparation requires excellent time management skills. Engineering programs can be rigorous, and managing additional study time for NEET might be demanding.


- **Financial Implications:** Consider the financial implications of switching from an engineering college to a medical college. You might face costs related to tuition fees, examination fees, and potentially the loss of time spent in the engineering program.


- **Commitment:** Ensure that you are fully committed to pursuing a career in medicine before making any decisions. Medical education is demanding and requires a strong commitment to the field.

5. **Alternative Paths**


- **Drop Year:** Some students choose to take a year off after completing their 12th grade to prepare exclusively for NEET, which can be less stressful than juggling both engineering studies and NEET preparation.


- **Integrated Programs:** Some institutions offer integrated programs that combine engineering and medical studies, but these are rare and may not be available everywhere.



Hello Aryan

No, the NIOS syllabus is not the same for Stream 1 and Stream 2.

Stream 1 is designed for students who have completed 10th grade from a recognized board. It covers a wider range of subjects and is more comprehensive.

Stream 2 is designed for students who have not completed 10th grade or for those who want to study specific subjects without completing the entire 10th grade syllabus. It offers a limited number of subjects and is less comprehensive than Stream 1.

Therefore, the syllabus for Stream 1 will be more extensive and cover a wider range of topics compared to Stream 2.

Yes, you are potentially eligible for MBBS abroad if you passed your 12th with PCM and then gave the NIOS Biology exam (with practical) and NEET.

Your 12th with PCM and the additional NIOS Biology exam (with practical) fulfill this requirement.

Specific marks requirements vary by university and country. You need to check the individual university websites for their specific criteria.

While the NEET score isn't mandatory for all universities abroad, it can be an advantage in your application. Some universities might require a minimum NEET score, while others might consider it for scholarship purposes.

Start researching universities abroad that offer MBBS programs and check their specific eligibility requirements. Pay close attention to the required subjects (PCB) and any minimum marks needed.

See if the universities you are interested in require a minimum NEET score. Many universities abroad require English language proficiency tests like IELTS or TOEFL. Check the specific requirement for each university.
