It means that you can give your attempts as many times as possible till you attain the age of 25 if u belong to unreserved category.

Dear student,
I would like to tell you that YES there are restrictions on the number of attempts for the NEET Exam. Its just that the exam will be held twice but the the maximum number of attempts remains the same i.e. 3 for an individual. As per the recent information as per now the maximum attempts are 3. You can give the exam twice in a year that is valid.
All the best.I hope this was helpful to you.

I am sorry to say that I don't agree with your response. I just now referred both the information bulletin of NEET 2017 and 2018. In chapter-3 of bulletin for NEET 2017, under point-1, there are 5 instructions regarding eligibility and appearance in NEET(-UG). Points 1c, and 1d clearly highlighted the restrictions on number of attempts and the way it is counted, etc. If you look at the bulletin for 2018-19, those points have been removed purposely. Therefore, shall I say that the restrictions on attempts were there till 2017 only and then abolished? When the current bulletin doesn't have a word about the restrictions on number of attempts for NEET, how could we follow something that is not given?

Ok i checked it again. Yes the candidate can attempt the exam as many times as they wish to as far as they fulfil the basic criteria for the exam.
