The National Medical Commission (NMC) has removed the upper age limit for those appearing in NEET-Under Graduate 2022 exam, officials said on Wednesday. The age criteria had often been questioned in the Supreme Court and high courts of the country.
With the age limit criteria removed, aspirants can now appear in the medical entrance exam as many times and even after taking admission to other courses, an official said. In 2017, the upper age had been set at 25 years for unreserved candidates and 30 years for reserved candidates.
