Dear Students
Here are some facts about NEET UG 2017
1) Important dates:
Registration begins- January 30, 2017
Registration ends- March 1, 2017

2) Attempts:
There has been a lot of confusion around the number of times that a candidate can attempt the NEET paper. The CBSE had at first announced that candidates can only attempt the paper thrice, after which they will not be eligible. This, however, was followed by protests and disagreements from candidates, some of whom had already given the paper thrice while it was still AIMPT and had been preparing all year for another try.
The CBSE on Friday announced that all previous attempts at the exam will not be counted. From 2017 onwards, however, candidates only have three chances.
3) Age limit:
While previously there was no upper age limit to the AIMPT papers, the CBSE announced that starting this year, candidates will only be eligible if they are more than 17 years old and not older than 25.
4) Aadhar card:
Indian citizens must register to NEET 2017 using the Aadhar card, according to an announcement by the CBSE on January 31. This has been done to ensure accuracy in ascertaining the candidates’ identities.
5) Location
NEET 2017 will be conducted in 80 cities across India. The exam will be held in 1500 examination centres. About 10 lakh candidates are exapected to appear.
