I was born in the December of 2000. Presently I am studying for IPE 2016 for Intermediate 2nd year. I also decided to write the EAMCET 2016.
As I read, for MBBS/BDS aspirants, the eligibility is not met if the applicant is below 17 years of age which happens to be my case. I wanted to know if this criteria must be necessarily met in order to write the exam. I can meet the other criteria but this one. Is the age an essential criteria? If so, can I not write the EAMCET 2016? Must I wait for another year to write the exam?
