I am 21 years old and I graduated this year with subjects of Physiology, zoology and botany. Also, I completed my 12th with physics, chemistry, biology and English. Am I eligible to sit for Neet? And which code should I use to fillup the form?

Hi


Yes , you are eligible for appearing in NEET 2021 examination.

This is because,

There is no rule which says that if you have completed bsc 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 pwd candidates to be eligible.

So, if you fulfill this requirement  as per your category then you are definitely eligible for Neet 2021 examination ,even if you have completed graduation  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

Also,

there is no upper age limit for Neet examination

For detailed information about neet examination go through our page forl which link is provided below; -

Coming to which code you should select :-

You should choose code 2.

This is because,

Though you have completed graduation, but  your highest qualification with physics chemistry and Biology remains 10 + 2 so you should choose code 2 as :-

it is for all those who have already passed 12th with physics chemistry and Biology and meet neet eligibility criteria i. e at least 50 % in pcb for general or 40 % in pcb for obc/sc/st

If you have any other doubt then you can always reach us to clear them :) we are always available to help you out and guide you

Thank you

Thanks a ton. I was really confused with the codes. Then, codes doesn't matter much later right? I mean if I clear NEET and get a good medical college , that won't hamper if I completed my grad. without phy or chem right?

Actually, my dream is to become a doctor. But due to some reasons I couldn't prepare during my 12th or after 12th. Therefore I had to join b.sc. Also there are many possibilities of not completing the phd because there are many examples infront of me. Obviously it's a good field but I just never wanted to. So I never wanted to pursue research career.
