Ans: Hello Devendra

NMC in its official letter dated March 9, 2022 mentioned that the upper age limit has been scrapped. Earlier, candidates who are above the age of 25 were not able to apply for NEET UG. Earlier, there were no upper age limit criteria for appearing in NEET.

However we cannot predict the age criteria for NEET 2025 now.
