Yes, Upper age limit is removed by SC for NEET exam on 31st March 2017. So, it is expected that it will remain same and there will be no age limit in NEET 2018 exam as well.

Good luck!!

As of now since the Supreme Court has passed a verdict regarding no restriction of the upper age limit to sit for the Neet examinations the same should hold true for all Neet examinations of the subsequent years till any further changes notified by the supreme authority in this regard .

So as of now you should be able to appear for the Neet examination irrespective of water ages since it is not bound by any upper age limit for the examination until and unless the supreme court makes an amendment of its verdict in this regard in the subsequent years.

Hello Indranil,
