Hi Aspirant,

Yes you can surely apply for NEET provided you fulfill the eligibility criteria.Candidates must have passed 10+2 or equivalent with Physics, Chemistry, Biology/Biotechnology and English as core subjects from a recognized board.If you fulfill the criteria as previously then you are eligible for the Neet EXAM.There is no as such upper age limits for NEET.

So you can apply easily.

Anisha Mahalik Yes, you can appear in NEET 2021 examination even if you are a private candidate ( private Candidate means those who give exam but are not enrolled in any school due to some reasons like have failed in 12th and again appear in the exam and pass it)
