Career Change at 35: Can I Become a Doctor?

Ans: आप आधिकारिक तौर पर 20 साल की उम्र में एमबीबीएस में शामिल हो सकते हैं, लेकिन आपको पता होना चाहिए कि मेडिकल करियर बहुत लंबा होता है। एमडी खत्म करने में लगभग 10 साल लगेंगे।

अभी तक, NEET (मेडिकल एंट्रेंस) में कोई ऊपरी आयु सीमा नहीं है। MBBS में सीट सुरक्षित करने के लिए आपको NEET देना होगा और अच्छे रैंक के साथ उत्तीर्ण होना होगा।

Ans: Hi Lagna,

It seems you haven’t provided the details clearly on this platform. If you could share more information, I’m sure you will receive helpful input.

Based on your message, I understand that you are considering pursuing a career in medicine. If you intend to enroll in a medical program either in India or abroad and plan to practice in India after completion, here are some important guidelines according to the National Medical Commission (NMC):

You must appear for the NEET exam, as it is a mandatory requirement for anyone wishing to pursue graduate medical education in India or elsewhere while intending to return and practice in India. According to the NMC eligibility criteria: “No student shall be eligible to pursue graduate medical education either in India or elsewhere (if they want to return and practice in India), except by scoring the minimum eligible score at the NEET UG exam. The UGMEB will announce the list of eligible students periodically.”

Therefore, I recommend preparing for the NEET exam and trying to secure admission in India itself. If you choose to pursue medical education abroad, you can still practice in India, but you will need to pass exit exams as well.

Regarding your question about pursuing MBBS abroad for under 8 lakhs, are you asking if this is per year or for the entire course? Studying abroad at that cost per year is possible. However, when you take into account the total expenses, which include course fees, accommodation, food, travel, visa, and other costs, it might be more feasible to complete your MBBS in India.

I hope this clarifies your queries!
