I had completed BDS in 2017 in AP state. I want to join BHMS course in AP only. Am I eligible for NEET exam?

Hi Anil, Eligibility for the NEET exam: Earlier, CBSE had said that the number of attempts a candidate can avail at NEET is limited to three and candidates who had already exhausted their three attempts will not be eligible to appear in NEET 2017. However, as per a new notification released on February 3, 2017, CBSE has rolled back a limitation of three attempts and the examination taken in 2017 will be treated as the first attempt irrespective of previous attempts. The candidate must have completed age of 17 years at the time of admission or will complete the age on or before 31st December 2017 I.e. the year of his/her admission to the 1st year M.B.B.S./B.D.S. Course Indian Nationals, Non-Resident Indians (NRIs), Overseas Citizen of India (OCIs), Persons of Indian Origin (PIOs) & Foreign Nationals are eligible for appearing in the National Eligibility Cum Entrance Test (UG), 2017 There will be no maximum age limit for NEET 2017 as per the SC order passed on March 31, 2017. The candidate must have passed in the subjects of Physics, Chemistry, Biology/Bio-technology and English individually and must have obtained a minimum of 50% marks taken together in Physics, Chemistry and Biology/ Bio-technology at the qualifying examination. For candidates belonging to Scheduled Caste/Scheduled Tribes or Other Backward Classes, the marks obtained in Physics, Chemistry and Biology/Bio-technology have taken together in qualifying examination must be minimum 40% instead of 50% for General candidates.

The candidates appearing for Class XII examination in 2017 can also appear for the entrance test provisionally subject to their fulfilling the conditions later.
