Ans: Hi,
I understand that you want to achieve 50% aggregate marks in important subjects like PCBM. Since you have spent three years on this, what are your plans for after obtaining the 50% marks?

BEST REGARDS

Ans: 50% for the general category (in some cases, they might have mentioned otherwise 50%)

BEST WISHES.

Ans: NO, a student who passed the 12th HSC exam as a regular candidate in 2023 is not eligible to apply for Form 17 (private candidate) for the February 2026 exams, as Form 17 is for students who failed or are appearing for the first time privately. The student who passed in 2023 is considered to have already completed the examination requirement.
Who is eligible for Form 17: Form 17 is primarily for students who failed the 12th exam and need to repeat it, or for students who are appearing privately for the first time.

Since you passed as a regular candidate in 2023, you have already completed the HSC examination. Your passing certificate from 2023 is your proof of completion.

For improvement: If you wish to improve your marks, you would typically apply for an improvement exam rather than reappearing as a private candidate through Form 17. However, eligibility for such an exam needs to be checked with the Maharashtra State Board.

BEST REGARDS.

Ans: Hi,

Did you take advantage of both opportunities in July 2023 and February 2024? If you still did not achieve a score of 50%, that is concerning. It suggests you may not be focused on your education, and perhaps you should consider pursuing diploma courses instead.

If you did not utilize either of those opportunities, please fill out Form No. 17 for isolated subjects and not for all subjects. I have confirmed with the MH State Board office that you can submit Form No. 17 for isolated subjects. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact your MH board office for clarification.

Ans: Hi, Yes, you need to provide an affidavit since you provided a wrong 12th roll number. It is better to avoid any consequences.

BEST REGARDS

Ans: Hi
According to NEET guidelines, if you belong to the general category, you are required to have at least 50% of the total marks in Physics, Chemistry, and Biology (PCB) combined in your 12th-grade results. You have achieved this standard from both your state board and NIOS, so there is no need for you to take the improvement exam again.

However, I am concerned that your score in Biology is lower than desired, and your marks in other subjects are also only average. You will need to put in a significant amount of effort to achieve a good score and ranking.

Currently, it’s crucial that you focus on your preparation. By now, you should have your study materials in place. Starting from January 15, you should aim to take numerous mock tests available online. Please plan accordingly.

Ans: Hi,

Who made this statement?

According to the NEET guidelines:
- There is no upper age limit to appear for the NEET exam and pursue studies in medicine.
- There is no limit on the number of attempts in the 12th grade, except for AFMC (Armed Forces Medical College, Pune), which only allows first-attempt candidates to apply.
- For the general category, a minimum of 50% aggregate marks is required. If you belong to a different category, the requirements will vary accordingly (please specify your category).
- The score can be a combination of State Board and NIOS (National Institute of Open Schooling).
- AIIMS requires a minimum of 60% aggregate marks.

If you have any further doubts, please feel free to ask for clarification.

BEST REGARDS

Ans: HI,
Your query is about whether you are eligible if you complete Biology through NIOS after having completed PCB through the state board.

Yes, it is possible. Regardless of whether you take the exam through NIOS or the state board, it is irrelevant since you will be making a second attempt. You need to achieve at least 50% in your marks. When you appear for the second attempt, you don't need to attend school; you can apply privately for the board exam. Instead of opting for the state board, you are choosing NIOS. That's all.

BEST WISHES.

Ans: HI,
YES.

Ans: Hi,
Based on your response, it seems you are losing 10% of your marks in the mock tests compared to your 10th-grade scores. I’m not sure which subject you are struggling with and losing marks in, but it’s crucial to identify that specific subject and focus on improving in it. As a dropper, you are already aware of your strengths and weaknesses. There are still a few months left, so try to take online mock tests regularly; this practice will help you achieve your goals. Additionally, your community can support you in reaching greater heights.

Aim for MBBS. Since you are interested in the health sector, you might also consider BDS or BAMS. If you wish to pursue a B.Tech in Biotechnology, you'll need to take the JEE exam. However, please note that the current scope for biotechnology is not as promising. So, your options can be MBBS, BDS, or BAMS.

Ans: hi,
No one can deny your admission. The institute does not have the authority to reject your application if you are eligible to appear for the course. During the admission process, they consider NIOS results for biology and marks from the Maharashtra State Board for other subjects.

If you are not eligible, the college will inform you of this at the very beginning, so there is no need to worry.

BEST REGARDS

Ans: Hi Pradeep,
You are most welcome.

Ans: Hi,
Have you had a chance to go through the website? They have provided some important details about the admissions process. For instance, the admission deadline for the B.Pharm course is November 13, 2025. The timeline may vary depending on the course you choose.

Please share the details of the course you are interested in. Since you haven't provided your information, it's difficult for me to assist you. I would appreciate your prompt response.

BEST WISHES.

Ans: HI,

You are currently pursuing a B.Tech degree at AKTU University (not through an affiliated college). You have submitted all your documents to the university, either through the department or directly to the administration office. However, you have not yet received information regarding your registration number.

If this is accurate, please note that the university usually provides the registration number at the time of the examination rather than at the start of the program.
BEST REGARDS

Ans: Hi,

Please review all your questions before responding to me.

In your initial inquiry, you only mentioned "preern." In question No. 1, you asked about the preern number, and I want to clarify that 47 students received the same number.

In your subsequent query, you asked about the time duration for preregistration.

In your third message, you mentioned that you are pursuing your B.Tech.

Now, you are bringing up the topic of the dual mark sheet.

There doesn’t seem to be a connection between your questions. The university has provided comprehensive details about the admission and counseling process on its website for each program.

Therefore, please share your query with all the necessary details in Hindi, and I will translate it for you. Don't worry.

I need the following information from you:
- When did you complete your HSC?
- Why did you choose NIOS?
- Did you appear for CUET or JEE?
- What is your rank in CUET or JEE?
- Did you participate in the counseling for JEE? If so, what happened?
- Why are you applying for state-level admission?
- What are your category details?
- What are the details of the fees you paid?
- If you are attending classes, when did they start and where are you enrolled?

Please share this information. Thank you!

BEST REGARDS

Ans: Hi,

Great!

You provided a lot of details, but your statement was still a bit confusing. From now on, whenever you have doubts and seek clarity from others, please provide them with proper details. Otherwise, you may not receive accurate answers.

I understand that you are pursuing a B.Tech at a private college affiliated with AKTU. However, you didn’t mention how you gained admission—did you gain it through counseling after appearing for JEE or CUET? I'm assuming you were admitted through counseling.

Regarding your query about whether NIOS marks will be accepted:

YES, they must ACCEPT them, and THEY WILL. Don't worry.

I have a few questions before I answer your query:

1. To be eligible, have you attempted 12th grade twice? Yes or No?
2. For the scoring marks, did you choose NIOS for your second attempt, while your first attempt was through CBSE? Yes or No?
3. In your first attempt, did you score 43%, and in your second attempt, did you score 58%? Yes or No?
4. Did you appear for the entrance exam (JEE or CUET)? Yes or No?
5. Did you register for UPTAC for counseling? Yes or No?
6. Did you get admission through counseling? Yes or No?

If you answer "YES" to all of these questions, then there should be no problems with your admission.

If your answer to the last question is "NO," then it might be due to your LOW SCORE. Additionally, since you belong to the open category, you may have opted for DIRECT ADMISSION to a PRIVATE INSITUTION affiliated with AKTU. Even in this case, the concerned institute must scrutinize your application before submitting it to the university; without that, they will not process it.

You have cleared all the necessary hurdles. Without going through a scrutiny process, you would not have been admitted. So, there is no need to worry about your admission. Be patient; you will surely receive a positive response from the university.

All the best!

Ans: Hi Patil,
I have got 2 doubts.
1. Did you complete both courses at the same college or at different colleges?
2. Did you complete the hospital training? Yes or No. If yes, when did you complete it? Kindly share the details.
BEST REGARDS

Ans: Hi,

It's great to hear that you have completed the hospital training, as it is an essential part of the curriculum. Additionally, your friend finished the course in a similar manner but without completing the training.

I also wanted to ask when you (your friend) joined the B. Pharm course. KINDLY SHARE.
BEST REGARDS

Ans: Hi Patil,
Thanks for the information.
Most state governments allocate B. Pharm (LE) seats to diploma candidates through counseling after they complete D. Pharm. How did you secure your B.Pharm lateral entry seat? Was it through counseling?

Could you please let me know which university the Raigad Institute is affiliated with?

Thank you!

BEST REGARDS

Ans: Hi Patil,

I would like to share information regarding the licensing process; however, you need to fulfill the requirements according to PCI norms first. Are you familiar with the PCI norms? Before I provide the details, I need to know more about the candidate inquiring about the registration process. There have been numerous fraudulent activities occurring in our field, which is why I am asking for complete details. I hope you understand.

According to the information provided, you joined the D.Pharm program in 2019 and completed the course in August 2021. You then underwent hospital training in December 2021. Subsequently, you enrolled in the B.Pharm program in December 2021 and are expected to complete it in August 2024.

However, there is a discrepancy: you have completed the B.Pharm in 2 years and 8 months, whereas the program duration should be 3 years. Even if we consider your admission in August 2021 and your completion in August 2024, this still amounts to 3 academic years. In this case, you would not have completed the hospital training. If you have indeed completed it, there appears to be an issue.

Both attending classes as per university norms and completing hospital training as per PCI requirements are mandatory, and both activities require physical attendance; online alternatives are not permitted. Furthermore, it is crucial to note that without completing the hospital training, you will not receive your Diploma certificate. The certificate is awarded only after the completion of this training.

While you may not perceive this as a mistake now, when pursuing government job opportunities or positions abroad, your credentials will be verified. If any suspicion arises, the authorities may send your documents to your university or college for confirmation.

I am unsure what actions you have taken regarding this matter; it is best to consult your institute. At least you completed the hospital training, which I acknowledged in my earlier response. On the other hand, your friend joined the B.Pharm program without completing the hospital training. According to PCI norms, to be eligible for the Diploma certificate, a candidate must clear PART-I (Diploma I year), PART-II (Diploma II year), and PART-III (successful completion of hospital training).

For your reference, I have extracted the relevant rules from the PCI guidelines, ER-1991, CHAPTER IV, POINT 23, PAGE NUMBER 26. [CHAPTER IV - POINT 23 CERTIFICATE OF DIPLOMA IN PHARMACY: A certificate of Diploma in Pharmacy shall be granted by the examining authority to a successful candidate on producing certificate of having passed the Diploma in Pharmacy Part I and Part II and satisfactory completion of Practical Training for Diploma in Pharmacy (Part-III)
CHAPTER-III DIPLOMA IN PHARMACY (Part-III) (Practical Training).............can refer further]...

Ans: Hi,
Could you please share which group you chose for your HSC level?
BEST REGARDS

Ans: HI,
According to NEP2020 (CBCS pattern) a candidate can choose the following pattern.
A candidate admitted in the academic year 2025-26 has to complete the selected program by 2031-32 (on multiple exit and entry option under FOUR/THREE YEARS PROGRAM).
The UG program shall extend over FOUR ACADEMIC YEARS (Eight Semesters) with multiple entry and exit options. The students can exit a course as follows:
i) Certificate course: ONE academic year (I & II sem & a summer vocational course and community work).

ii) DIPLOMA COURSE: TWO academic years (FOUR SEM + SUMMER /VOCATIONAL COURSE AND COMMUNITY WORK).

iii) THREE-YEAR DEGREE COURSE WITH A SINGLE MAJOR (WITH 2 MINORS)

iv) THREE YEAR DEGREE COURSE WITH DOUBLE MAJOR

v) THREE-YEAR DEGREE COURSE WITH THREE CORES AS MINOR STREAM (WITHOUT MAJOR).

vi) FOUR-YEAR HONOURS WITHOUT RESEARCH AND MAJOR

vi) FOUR YEARS HONOURS WITH RESEARCH
(EXTRACTED FROM SAMBALPUR UNIVERSITY FOR REFERENCE PURPOSE)

MOST IMPORTANT:

Twinning courses pursuing simultaneous dual degree:
A student can pursue two academic programs one in full time PHYSICAL MODE and another in OPEN AND DISTANCE LEARNING/ONLINE MODE; or upto TWO ODL/ONLINE PROGRAMS SIMULTANEOUSLY, provided that in such, class timings for one program do not overlap with the class timings of the other programs.

CHANGE OF SUBJECTS:
A STUDENT CAN CHANGE HIS CORE (I) SUBJECT WITHIN 4 WEEKS OF THE LAST DATE OF ADMISSION WHIICH HAS TO BE DULY COMMUNICATED TO THE UNIVERSITY BY THE COLLEGE CONCERNED. THE CHOICE OF CORE (MAJOR/MINOR) SUBJECTS DURING THE FIRST ADMSSION TO THE 3RD SEMESTER HAS TO BE EXERCISED BY THE CANDIDATE AFTER PROPER COUNSELLING BY THE COLLEGE AUTHORITIES THRU THE CELL.


KINDLY NOTE:
It is important for you to decide which course you want to pursue.

In your case, your institute should offer various options ranging from certificate programs to four-year degrees. However, you have chosen the three-year program with two majors without referring to the institute's prospectus. It seems that the available options are not accurately reflected on the website. Even as an autonomous institute, they should keep their information updated and easily accessible. Therefore, I recommend discussing this matter with the principal, the department head, or other higher authorities at the institution. Additionally, I believe it may be possible to transfer from one university to another, but I am not entirely certain about this. I suggest checking the guidelines for more information.

Ans: You are eligible to appear for the NEET exam. No one can stop you. So, what is the problem?

The issue here pertains to the candidate's name. In Maharashtra, it is common for women to change their surname after marriage, replacing their father's name with their husband's name. However, changing from a father's name to a husband's name is not a significant problem, as there is a solution for every issue.

Solution 1: If you plan to change your name on your Aadhar card, you need to follow the official procedure. Additionally, you will require a "Same Person" certificate from a Notary Public.

Solution 2: If you choose not to change your name on your Aadhar card, you can still appear for the exam. However, while filling out the application form, you must include your parents' names and not your husband's. It’s advisable to discuss this with your husband.

You can choose whichever option is more convenient for you. I hope I have answered your query.
