I had passed 12th class with Biology, Physics, Chemistry and Maths. But I went on to pursue a degree in economics. Am I eligible for NEET?

the criteria for be able to appear in NEET is very simple that you have to have a minimum aggregate of 50% in each of physics, chemistry and biology in your class 12 board examinations no matter what course you pursue after that and that you have to be within 17 to 25 years of age for unreserved categories and 17 to 30 years of age for reserved categories
if you fulfill these criteria whether you have pursuit of degree within this time or after completing your class 12 boards does not really matter and they will be options of selecting the appropriate category in such a case while you are filling up your Neet form and you do not need to worry about that

Hello Uma

The eligibility required to appear in the NEET exam is 10+2 passed with biology as the core or additional subject from any known board.
The age limit however is 25 years for the general category and 30 years of age for the reserved category.

As you match the eligibility criteria.. so you're eligible for the entrance.

Hope this helps.!
Good Luck.!
