Hello aspirant,

If you has filled application form for NEET-2021, and it is up to you whether attend it or leave it. It does not cause any problem to you, you can fill new application form for the NEET-2022. But, in my opinion you should take the the examination, it will provide the real exam experience and help you in future.

The eligibility criteria for age for NEET is as follows;

• Candidate has completed age of 17 years at the time of admission or will complete that age on or before 31 December of the year of his/her admission to the first year
• Undergraduate Medical Courses.
• The upper age limit for NEET (UG) is 25 years as on the date of examination with
• relaxation of 5 years for the candidates belonging to SC/ST/OBC-NCL category and
• PwD Candidates.

NOTE: The upper age limit was challanged and  matters are pending adjudication before

• the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India and the authorities shall abide by any order that

may be passed for NEET-UG-2021.

• Thus, the candidates above 25 years are provisionally permitted to appear and their candidature is subject to the outcome of pending Petitions before the Hon'ble Supreme Court.
  

Hope this helps!!
All the best!!

Hi

Yes, you can definitely choose not to attempt Neet 2021 and  don't worry you can appear in NEET 2022 without attempting neet 2021, there will be no problem. It doesn't matter at all even if you have applied for neet 2021 and got your admit card

This is because,

There is no rule which says that if you don't give Neet after filling its form, you become ineligible for next year neet . So, don't worry you will be eligible for Neet 2022 even if you skip neet  2021 provided

you must have passed 12th board examination with physics, chemistry ,biology/biotechnology and English and must have got:-

• at least  50  % in aggregate of PCB  i.e Physics, Chemistry and Biology/Biotechnology  in 12th examination  if belongs to general category

• at least  40%  in aggregate of PCB if belongs to st/Obc/ Sc

• at least 45 % in aggregate of PCB in case of pwd candidates to be eligible.

Also,

* to be eligible for neet 2022 one has to be at least 17 years old or more by 31st December 2022.

* There is no upper age limit for Neet as of now.

* There's no limit for the maximum number of attempts/times one can appear in NEET.

††††† My Personal opinion   :- I would suggest you to appear in NEET 2021 examination instead of skipping it. I know there are times when aspirants feel that they are not ready for the examination but trust me this is totally normal  and in the worst case even if you are not able to perform well in NEET 2021 you can  simply take a drop and appear for Neet 2022 but appearing in NEET 2021 will be an added benefit as you will have the Real Experience of Neet examination and you will get to know the types of questions which are asked in the examination, their difficulty level etc so that you can prepare accordingly in your drop year

Thank you
