Hi

It's completely ok even if you have passed 12th at the age of 16 years but how old you will be as on 31st December 2021 ?

To be eligible for Neet 2021 one needs to be at least 17 years old as on 31st December 2021 so if you fulfill this criteria then you can appear in NEET 2021 otherwise you are not eligible for neet 2021

For your reference,

Neet eligibility criteria is provided below :-

Neet 2021 eligibility criteria says that to be eligible you must be either appearing for 12th board examination 2021 or should 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 st/Obc/ Sc

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

Also,

* to be eligible for neet 2021 one has to be at least 17 years old or more as on 31st December 2021

* There is no upper age limit for Neet 2021

* There's no limit for the maximum number of attempts/times one can appear in NEET.
