Hello there,
Knowing the maximum attempts and age limit for NEET 2021 is important for all candidates, especially those who have appeared for NEET  in the past and intend to do so again. National Testing Agency (NTA) is the competent authority to conduct the NEET UG 2021 exam, there are currently no limits to the number of attempts for NEET 2021. The three attempt limit rule for the medical entrance test introduced by the CBSE in the year 2017 no longer applies. Therefore, all candidates can appear for the NEET 2021 exam as many times as they wish to.
For more information about the same you can check the link given below:
