Hello Aspirant

Yes, you can pursue MBBS and become a doctor even after you have completed your GNM course.

You just would have to fill the application form for NEET UG and prepare in order to clear the cutoff for admission in a decent medical college. It will be same like an 12th passed student giving NEET UG, because there is no upper age limit to appear for NEET UG Exam. So, just give it a try and all the best.

Hello,

In order to become doctor, you have to appear for NEET, and fulfill its eligibility criteria as follows-

Attained 17 years as on 31st December of the appearing year,

Passed 10+2 from a recognized board with physics, chemistry, biology and english as core subjects,

Secured PCB aggregate inclusive of theory and practical against respective category

  • UR - 50%
  • SC/ST/OBC- 40%
  • PwD - 45%

The decision regarding the upper age limit is pending in the Supreme Court, until the verdict comes there is no upper limit hence no restrictions also in terms of number of attempts. NEET is mandatory to pursue MBBS/BDS and even ayush courses, apart from this its scores are accepted for BPT/BPharm/BSc Nursing.

Hence, to answer your question if you have the required subjects with aggregate in your 10+2 level, you can appear for NEET as long as you fulfill the eligibility criteria,
