Hi

Yes, you can definitely prepare for Neet examination even if you are doing BSc nursing.

This is because,

There is no rule which says that if you are doing BSC nursing or any graduation you become ineligible for Neet examination, as to be eligible for neet what all one needs is :

* to must have passed 12th board examination with physics, chemistry ,biology/biotechnology and English and must have got:-

-) at least 50 % in aggregate of PCB i.e Physics, Chemistry and Biology/Biotechnology in 12th examination if belongs to general category

-) at least 40% in aggregate of PCB if belongs to Obc/ Sc /st category

-)at least 45 % in aggregate of PCB in case of general pwd candidates to be eligible.

So if you fulfill this criteria as per your category then you are definitely eligible for Neet 2021 examination ,even if you are doing bsc nursing right now and after qualifying Neet examination you can get admission in medical colleges for MBBS etc on the basis of rank or marks obtained by you in NEET. And don't there are a few people who leave their graduation course in between or some even complete their graduation and then qualify Neet and do MBBS and the same case is there with BSc nursing too.

Also,

there is no upper age limit for Neet examination
