Hello Aspirant,

As there is no upper age limit to appear for NEET so yes you are eligible for NEET even after completing B.Sc. So if you are preparing for NEET along with B.Sc course then it is too good thing and there are some qualifying codes which you need to know before applying for NEET, so in your case you can use either code 5 or code 6. Now let us see that what is the difference between these codes :-

NEET Code 5 :-

If you pass the first year of a bachelor's degree from a recognized university with Physics, Chemistry, Biology/Biotechnology inclusion of practical tests.

NEET Code 6 :-

This code is used by those aspirants who have passed B.Sc. examination with not less than two subjects which includes Biology/Biotechnology, Physics and Chemistry, as their eligibility code. Further, also note that such aspirants must have passed Class 10+2 qualifying examination with English, Chemistry, Physics and Biology/Biotechnology.

Hi

Yes , you are eligible for appearing in NEET 2021 examination.

This is because,

There is no rule which says that if you are doing BSC or any graduation you become ineligible for Neet examination, as to be eligible for
neet what all one needs is :

to must have passed in English and in both the theory and practical of PCB i.e Physics, Chemistry and Biology individually with at least 50  % in aggregate of PCB ( in theory +practical) in 12th examination if belong to general category , or  at least 40% in aggregate of PCB if belongs to Obc/ Sc /st.

Minimum age limit is 17 years old ,so  to be eligible for neet 2021 one has to be at least 17 years old by  31st  December 2021

*Also, there is no upper age limit for Neet examination

So if you fulfill above criteria then you are definitely eligible for Neet 2021 examination ,so don't worry even if you are doing graduation right now you will be definitely eligible for Neet 2021

Coming to which code you should select:-

* if you are doing Bsc and you have all the three of physics chemistry and Biology in your BSc then choose the code 5 , otherwise choose the code  2 .
