Secondly you also asked is Veterinary course admission process is also through NEET score.. I would like to tell its Yes and No.. means it differ from one state to other... Some state consider Neet score and some have their own entrance exam... If you can tell which state you are targeting... I would be in a better position to help...
Hopefully it helps

The Neet eligibility criteria says that the minimum age for an aspirant for writing neet is 17 years and the upper limit is 25 years....the most important thing is the student must have cleared 10+2 board exam
Answering to the second part of your question ..yes you need to give neet for veterinary science too
As you might know there are 15% seats on all India basis .. So for getting admission In a well known veterinary college depends on your neet score...

Until 2016, ALL INDIA PRE-VETERINARY TEST (AIPMT), a national level entrance examination was conducted for 15% seats of recognized government veterinary colleges across the nation, barring the state of Jammu and Kashmir.
However, in the year 2017, AIPVT got cancelled and the was replaced by NEET-UG entrance. The admissions were conducted based on NEET-UG SCORES.
There is no official notification as of now, whether AIPVT will be conducted in the year 2018, or will they get merged in NEET-UG ENTRANCE again. Stay updated by checking this website frequently.
