Naidu Bhai’s Inspiring NEET Journey at 49 Years

This is the real story of Naidu Bhai who qualified NEET at 49 years old and secured admission in S.A. Ningoji Ayurvedic Medical College, Koppal (Karnataka) during NEET 2024.

Inspired by his son Rohit, Naidu applied for NEET on the last day, studied for just 3 days using NCERT books and mock tests, and successfully qualified. His experience at the exam center was memorable — many mistook him for an invigilator!
