Hi Harish,

Unfortunately you cannot give NEET UG examination, as the upper age limit is 25 years for General category students, and 5 years relaxation for other categories. Here is more information about NEET exam. NEET is a national level medical entrance exam used to get admission in government/private medical colleges for MBBS, BDS, BPT, Unani courses. It has four main sections:

A) Physics

B) Chemistry

C) Botany

D) Zoology

There is a 1/3 negative marking. A highest score one can get is 720, as each question is worth 4 marks, and there are 180 questions total and it's a 3 hour exam. NEET is conducted in May every year by CBSE.

As per the weightage of NEET if you mean the importance of it, it is crucial exam if you want to get into a medical college in India. NEET scores are accepted nationwide in all states except by AIIMS, JIPMER and CMC Vellore. These 3 institutes are exempted and they conduct their own medical entrances for admissions. The remaining colleges must take admission based on NEET scores and ranking.

Students use online resources for studies or they generally join coaching such as Allen or Aakash centers to improve their prepartion for NEET UG. Along with NEET UG, there is another exam NEET PG meant for MD/ MS admissions.
