Dear student,

The minimum required age for NEET 2021 is 17 years that means a student must attain the age of 17 if he/she has to apply for NEET 2021.

Now if go more deep in discussion the this 17 years of age is required by 31 December 2021. By the date the student must attain the age of 17 years old.

Now if we calculate your age, then by 31 December 2021, you will be 16 years 11 months 27 days. That means, unfortunately you will have to miss this NEET 2021 because you are just being short of age for few days.

You can check the eligibility criteria in detail by going through the link below.
