Sir, I am 51 years old and am working in software engineering field. I am at a senior level as a technology specialist in my firm and drawing very handsome salary. However I am not satisfied with the job and have been sticking to it due to family responsibilities. Now I have reached a level of financial stability that I am not dependent on my job for money requirements and thus am finding very dificult to motivate myself in the current job. I am interested in becoming a doctor and serve people for rest of the life. I did PCM in 12th.I have read that biology is mandatory as passing subject in 12th.for giving NEET exam. I wanted to know if I do biology 12th from Open (IGNOU) then would i be eligible for sitting in NEET exam. Please let me know and if there is any alternative way so that I can meet eligibility criteria for NEET exam. Thanks,

Ans: Hi
as per the NEET Information brochure
Candidates who have passed Class 12 from Open Schools or as private candidates shall not be eligible to appear for the National Eligibility Cum Entrance Test’. Furthermore, a study of Biology/Biotechnology as an Additional Subject at the Class 12 level also shall not be permissible
