Hello Aspirant,

Yes definitely you can appear as per the current eligibility criteria but note that the upper age limit is not yet decided and decision on the same is pending in the Supreme Court, so if the verdict will be passed by SC on upper age limit and the upper age limit will be decided, then your eligibility might get impacted as per the upper age limit.


The criterion which needs to be fulfilled are enlisted below for NEET 2022 :

** You must have passed 10+2 from any recognized central/state board.

** English should also be in your curriculum of class 12th and also you should have passed in it.

** You minimum age should be more that or equal to 17 years by December 31st 2022, as per the current eligibility criteria.

** As of now there is no upper age limit for NEET but the case is pending in Hon'ble SC and by 2022 if the verdict comes then the upper age limit may be decided and it can be either 25 or as decided by SC.
