Can my parents claim me as a dependent if I am 24?

At the end of 2016, I was 24, a part-time student, had lived with my parents all year, and made about $5000 from my part-time job.  My parent/s have not filed yet and I don't know if I should claim myself or not.

No, your parent cannot claim you as a dependent--you must be under 24 at the end of the year and a full time student OR your gross income must be less than $4050
