Hi

There's no upper age limit for neet , earlier there was age limit of 25 years for Neet but now this matter is in Supreme Court and till the supreme court passes judgement on it, there is no upper age limit for neet examination

And now there's Only minimum age limit according to which ,
to be eligible for neet 2021 one has to be at least 17 years old or more by 31st December 2021 .

So, you don't need to worry at all about your age , you are eligible for Neet 2021 examination irrespective of your age and even if you are a bams graduate

This is because,

There is no rule which says that if you are bams graduate or any other graduate 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 are a bams graduate 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
