NEET UG Age Limit Change: NMC updates age criteria, tie-breaking rules for Medical Entrance Exam

NMC has changed the minimum age limit for taking the NEET UG, requiring candidates to be at least 17 years old on or before January 31. The UGMEB is responsible for putting the NMC curriculum and outcome objectives on the NMC website, and completing a rotating medical internship.

NEET-UG Age Limit Change: According to the just released GMER-23, candidates for the NEET UG must be at least 17 years old on or before January 31 of the year they want to start UG medical school.

The National Medical Commission (NMC) has changed the minimum age limit for taking the National Eligibility cum Entry Test for Undergraduates (NEET-UG). According to the Graduate Medical Education Regulations (GMER-23), which were released on June 2, candidates must be at least 17 years old on or before January 31 of the year they want to start medical school at the undergraduate level. Before, you had until December 31 of the admission year to figure out how old you had to be eligible. Starting with NEET UG 2024, the new rules will be in place.

To be qualified for the NEET UG, candidates for MBBS, BDS, and AYUSH programs must have finished their 10+2 (or the equivalent) with physics, chemistry, biology or biotechnology, and English. A notice told people about these changes to who could apply.

In the GMER-23 rules, NMC said that if there was a tie in the NEET UG scores, the individual scores in physics, chemistry, and biology would be taken into account, in that order. In the case of a tie, the suitable applicants will be chosen by the draw lots, with no help from people.

According to the new rules, all medical schools will use the same counseling process to decide who gets into graduate medical programs. This process will be based on the NEET UG rank list. The final list of students must be sent to the Undergraduate Medical Education Board (UGMEB) within a week of being finished by the person in charge.

The UGMEB will tell counselors how to do their jobs. Every medical school must also send the UGMEB the final list of accepted students within a week of the last day to sign up for a course.

“The UGMEB is in charge of putting the model curriculum and outcome objectives on the NMC website. These will be used as a basis for each university to create its own detailed medical curriculum.” Along with the NMC curriculum, there will also be shorter, credit-based classes with limited options,” the rule said.

In order to be considered a graduate, a UG medical student must finish a rotating medical internship according to the Compulsory Rotating Medical Internship Regulations (CRMI), 2021.
