Yes, you're eligible for NIMCET if:

You're doing BCA from a UGC-recognized online university

You had Math/Statistics in 12th or graduation

You score 60% (Gen/OBC) or 55% (SC/ST)

There's no age or gap limit

Just ensure you complete BCA before the deadline (e.g., Sep 2025 for NIMCET 2025).

Hii,

Yes, you are eligible for the NIMCET.
You have completed your backlog and achieved a CGPA of 6.5. According to the NIMCET 2025 guidelines, candidates must obtain at least 60% marks or a 6.5 CGPA on a 10-point scale in their qualifying test. Your CGPA is exactly 6.5, thus you meet the requirements.
Furthermore, NIMCET does not support converting CGPA to percentage or vice versa.  As a result, your CGPA of 6.5 qualifies you directly without any conversion.

The official website for NIMCET 2025 is https://nimcet.admissions.nic.in .

So you're asking about your eligibility for placements with a CGPA of less than 6.5 but more than 6, and you had a backlog in the 5th semester which is now cleared.don't worry, having a backlog cleared doesn't affect your eligibility for placements. However, the CGPA criteria may vary from company to company.

Some companies may consider candidates with a CGPA of 6 and above, while others may require a higher CGPA. It's best to check with the companies you're interested in applying to, or with your college placement cell, to know their eligibility criteria.You can also prepare for placements by focusing on your skills, project work, and interview preparation. This will help you stand out, even with a slightly lower CGPA.
