Hello Aspirant,

See if you had passed 10+2 with PCB or PCMB background in 2008 then there is no need to appear for it again because you can use the same result for NEET UG 2022 or 2023 as there is no limit on number of attempts.

But incase you had not done so, then you can appear for PCB again from any recognized open board and also make sure that English subject should be there in your curriculum and you have to pass PCB with minimum aggregate of 50% if you belongs to UR/General category.


For you reference NEET eligibility criteria is mentioned below :-

** You must have passed 10+2 from any recognized central/state board.

Begin a career in Medical and Allied Sciences. Admissions Open for

** English should also be in your curriculum of class 12th and also you should have passed in it.

** You minimum age should be more that or equal to 17 years by December 31st of the examination year, as per the current eligibility criteria.

** As of now there is no upper age limit for NEET but the case is pending in Hon'ble SC and by 2022 if the verdict comes then the upper age limit may be decided and it can be either 25 or as decided by SC.

Thank you for the information about NEET upper age limit ,
and about 12th with PCMB i will appear from NIOS this year in OCT this year i read on their web site about ,'Dual Enrollment and Part Admission' can any one please explain the following "Under this provision, if in case a learner is studying in a regular school, or has already passed Secondary/ Senior Secondary examination or any other higher course from any recognised Board/University, he/she may opt for upto four subjects of his/her choice, to update knowledge and educational qualifications. However, on passing, only the Marksheet will be issued and no other Certificate will be issued. The entry requirement for dual enrolment and part admission will be as per NIOS admission rules (Table-3 Entry Requirements)."

So according to this i can opt for 4 subject but will not get any certificate what does this mean can i still appear for NEET if assumed there was no upper age limit
