Hi

It is completely you ok even if you have completed your engineering you can still appear for Neet examination provided you fulfill its eligibility criteria given below

Here's the eligibility criteria for NEET :-

-----------) Qualification required :-As per Neet eligibility to be eligible you must be either appearing for 12th board examination  or should have passed 12th board examination with physics, chemistry ,biology/biotechnology and English as core subject.

†††Important Note :- Students with Biology as an additional subject are also provisionally eligible for neet until Supreme Court gives its judgement over it.

-----------)  Percentage required :- You must get

• 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 st/Obc/ Sc

• at least 45 % in aggregate of PCB in case of pwd candidates to be eligible.

-----------)  Age limit :-

• Lower age limit:- to be eligible for neet  one has to be at least 17 years old or more by 31st December in the year of appearing for the examination .

• Upper age limit :-The upper age limit  is 25 years as on the date of neet examination and there's relaxation of 5 years for obc ncl/SC/ST /PwBD students means upper age limit is 30 years for these categories.

†††† But since 2018, the case of upper age limit is pending in supreme court , and so there's no upper age limit as of now until supreme court gives its judgement over it.

-----------) There's no attempt limit for neet.

Coming to AFMC,

Below I have provided  eligibility criteria for AFMC :-

-------------) As per eligibility criteria of AFMC to be eligible you should must all the subjects in your class 12th in your first attempt  with English, Physics, Chemistry and Biology and must  get at least 60% in aggregate of PCB  i. e Physics, Chemistry and Biology  and at least 50% marks in English and 50% marks individually in each of PCB , also should have studied and passed maths in the class 10th.

- -------------)You must be at least 17 years old by 31st December of the year in which you apply,  and must not be of age of 24 years on that date i.e  If you are going to take admission in 2022 then your date of birth must not be earlier than 1st January 1999 and it should not be later than 31st  December 2005

So ,yes age does matter when it comes to AFMC but with your age will be 23 years old next year and so you will be still eligible for AMC

You can check the same at its official page , the link for the same is provided below

If you want to get into afmc, you need to have at least around  650 marks in neet examination to be on the safer side

After qualifying neet cut off of AFMC , you will have to give some additional examination to get admission in AFMC , that is :-

**********Test of English Language, Comprehension, Logic, and Reasoning which is called ToELR,

**********Psychological Assessment Test i.e. PAT,

********** Interview

After clearing these, finally you will have to go through your Medical Examination then finally you are selected for admission in AFMC.

Thank you

Dear aspirant,

This is a very big decision what you have mentioned in the question. After the completion of your bachelor's degree which is b.tech then again you want to go for neet which in itself another big take.

The mbbs is a five year course so you would 27 so I would recommend you to not take such decisions which would affect your entire life. Sit and discuss with your parents what you really want to pursue ahead.

Hello ,

Yes you can apply for neet exam as neet you can write n number of times unlike jee , Age is not an issue in neet exam , as you have done be mechanical engineering physics part will be very easy for you

For AFMC ( armed force medical college ) Candidates must have completed age of 17 years as on 31 ^st December 2021 . Candidates should not have attained the age of 24 years That is the criteria , if you are attempting neet next year then it wont be a problem

Hope this helps you

best wishes for your future
