NEET

No, NEET scores are not required for the BSc Nursing course admission through CENTAC counselling. Courses such as BSc Nursing and other paramedical courses are clubbed under the UG Non-NEET category of admission. The admission takes place on the basis of candidates' Class 12 Board exam scores and other admission criteria laid down by CENTAC. 

Sadly, you can not appear for NEET 2024 with the said plan, as mentioned. As per the eligibility criteria, one must have passed class 12th with either PCB or PCM with Biology as an additional subject from a recognised board, in the same tenure. Thus, this is not practically possible to appear for NEET 2024 as of now.

Hope that helps!

Candidates must first be eligible to take the CBSE-conducted National Eligibility and Entrance Test (NEET). Second, they need to get a minimum cumulative NEET of 50%. The annual variation in the minimum score required for admission to KMC Manipal is due to various factors such as the level of difficulty of the exam, the volume of applicants, and the availability of seats.
