Hi Ali,

According to the NEET FAQ pdf( https://ntaneet.nic.in/Ntaneet/ShowPdf.aspx?Type=50C9E8D5FC98727B4BBC93CF5D64A68DB647F04F&ID=77DE68DAECD823BABBB58EDB1C8E14D7106E83BB page 4, section 22)

For eligibility for NEET 2019- Candidate should be 31- December- 2002

So predicting accordingly,

For eligibility for NEET 2020- Candidate should be 31- December- 2003

For eligibility for NEET 2021- Candidate should be 31- December- 2004

For eligibility for NEET 2022- Candidate should be 31- December- 2005

Since your dob falls before 31-Dec-2005, you are eligible for NEET 2022.

Hope it helps.

Hey Ali

The lower age limit set by the Hon'able Supreme Court of India is 17 years. This age should be completed before December 31st of the previous year of examination. Thus, apparently, you will not be eligible for NEET examination of the year 2021-2022. You will complete 17 years in 2022. Thus you can appear for NEET which will be in the year 2023 and later.

I hope this helps. Feel free to ask any other queries if you have.

Hey Ali,
You would become eligible for giving NEET exam in around year 2022.
Other Eligibility Criterias required for giving NEET exam are :
  • The candidate must have passed 12th examinations with Physics, Chemistry, Biology and English as compulsory subjects.
  • The candidate must have scored minimum 50% marks (45% for Physically Handicapped and 40% for Reserved category candidates) in the qualifying examination.
  • You must have minimum 17 years of age as on on or before 31st December of the year of admission and there is no upper age limit for this exam.
Good Luck!

Hello Ali,
According to the eligibility criteria of NEET, the candidate should complete 17 years of age.
As your date of birth is 24/12/2005 you will become eligible in the 2023.
You won't be able to appear in NEET examination 2021-22, either.
You have a lot of time to prepare well before appearing in the examination.
I hope this helps.
All the best for the future!!
