Hello

You cannot fill neet 2021 application form.

This is because,

The last date to fill neet application form was 10th August 2021 which has already passed.

For details refer.

But yes,

You can definitely apply for neet 2022 , and don't worry , you are eligible for appearing in NEET examination even if you are doing d pharma.

This is because,

There is no rule which says that if you are doing d pharma or any other course 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 examination ,even if you are doing d Pharma 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

Also,

*there is no upper age limit for Neet examination

For detailed information about neet examination go through our page forl which link is provided below; -

Coming to which code you should select:-

You should choose code 2.

This is because,

Though you are doing d pharma,  your highest qualification with physics chemistry and Biology remains 10 + 2 so you should choose code 2 as :-

it is for all those who have already passed 10+2 with physics chemistry and Biology and meet neet eligibility criteria i. e at least 50 % in pcb for general or 40 % in pcb for obc/sc/st  and  are either not pursuing graduation or pursuing graduation but doesn't have either physics or chemistry or biology or all of these three in their graduation
