Can I give one attempt after 12th (18yrs) and another after two years drop and one at the age of 24. I wanted to ask if i can give my 3 attempts discontinuously?

A student can appear for any number of attempts for NEET examination.

But the candidate has to satisfy the minimum eligibility criteria to appear for NEET.

The minimum criteria is that the candidate must have attained 17 years of age at the time of admission, while the upper age limit is 25 years of age at the time of admission. A relaxation of 5 years is subjected for SC/ ST category candidates.

There is no such limits of attempts, therefore you can attempt for your examination as many number of times you want to. However, there is a maximum age age limit, i.e. 25 years of age.

Any candidate overlapping the above mentioned age criteria will not be eligible to apply for the examination.
