Hello Aspirant,

Yes you can definitely do class 12th again from PCB combination from NIOS even if you have completed graduation in engineering field and then you can appear for NEET UG because as per the eligibility criteria of NEET UG there is no upper age limit till now. So you can definitely appear for NEET UG .

Also note that if you already had Biology as an additional subject with PCM combination earlier in class 12th then also you can apply for NEET UG because Biology as an additional subject is also accepted provisionally.

But there are some other points to be satisfied to be eligible for NEET UG :-


** You must have passed 10+2 from any recognized central/state board.

** English should also be in your curriculum of class 12th and also you should have passed in it.

** You minimum age should be more that or equal to 17 years by December 31st of the examination year, as per the current eligibility criteria.

** As of now there is no upper age limit for NEET but the case is pending in Hon'ble SC and by the examination year if the verdict comes then the upper age limit may be decided and it can be either 25 or as decided by SC.
