Dear Vamshi, there is no upper age limit for NEET. Previously when CBSE was conducting NEET, there was an upper age limit. But there was a case that was filed in the Supreme Court against this rule and the Supreme Court has ordered a Stay on the rule. So for now, there is no upper age limit for NEET. All that is required is you should have completed your 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry and Biology as your subjects. You can also study Biology as an additional subject and be eligible for NEET. What is important for being eligible for NEET is that you need to pass in all your subjects in 10+2 and score a minimum aggregate of 50% in Physics, Chemistry and Biology.

Dear Aspirant,

It is true that there is no age limit for appearing in NEET exam and there is no limit on the number of attempts. A person can give NEET as many time as he/she wished until he/she fulfill the other criteria. So if your friend is thinking of giving neet, he can very well give the exam.
