Ans: Hi,
It's important to note that we can't judge universities or colleges solely based on their overall reputation. Each university offers a variety of programs and courses, making it difficult to make a blanket statement. It's similar to asking a parent to choose their favorite child; every program has its strengths and weaknesses. Therefore, specific comparisons can be made, but broad judgments are often misleading.
The rankings of the universities or colleges are the same.

I believe you will share my perspective on this matter.

Ans: Hi,
The expected cut-off for medicine through NEET is influenced by various factors, including exam difficulty, seat availability, competition, and category. Different categories have different cut-offs, which are based on percentile scores. For 2024, the expected cut-off ranges from 161 to 127, while for 2023, it was between 116 and 93. For this year, a slightly higher cut-off can be anticipated.
Wishing all the best.

Ans: Hi,
what do you consider a low branch? Is it one that pays less or offers fewer opportunities? After completing a course at NIT, do graduates typically find jobs with good packages? What do we truly want? Which course is suitable for me? It is important to analyze and select a course based on personal preference rather than simply following others' suggestions. The course you choose should provide you with opportunities throughout your life, not the other way around. In response to your question, there are various possibilities to consider.
Wishing you all the best.

Ans: Hi,

After analyzing the marks you scored in both attempts of the JEE, I have some suggestions for you.

Firstly, it seems that you are weaker in math. I recommend focusing more on this subject by taking online tests and using relevant books to improve your skills.

It appears you might be concentrating on understanding the subjects well, but I’m not sure if you are utilizing tips and tricks for problem-solving. Learning and applying these strategies can significantly improve your score in the JEE.

Just give it a try, and I believe you will achieve an excellent score next time!

All the best!

Ans: Hi User,

Greetings!

Instead of providing your percentile, it would be more helpful to mention your rank. This way, predictors or advisors can offer better suggestions. There are very few chances of getting admission into an IIT, but you should have the opportunity to gain admission to other NITs.

Ans: Hi,

I’m not sure where you’re from, but according to the NIRF, the top colleges are located in Ooty, Mysuru, Manipal, and Mumbai. In most states, NEET eligibility is not required for admission, but state-level exams are necessary. Many deemed-to-be universities conduct their own entrance exams, so if you’re interested in joining one of these universities, you can reach out to them for further information.

Ans: Hi Satya,

Greetings! Looking at the scores of X and XI, she has performed very well in the CBSE exams. This is the perfect time for her to start preparing for the NEET exam.

Encourage her to compare the NEET syllabus with her XII standard syllabus. She should also gather a question bank for NEET and categorize the questions according to the chapters of her regular subjects. It would be beneficial for her to review NEET topics and past years' questions. Additionally, she should ask her subject teachers any questions she has while they cover the respective topics.

This approach will provide her with more comprehensive information compared to attending NEET coaching online.

You might consider asking her to speak with her subject teachers for tips and strategies to help her remember the material better, which will make answering questions easier for her. Additionally, if she feels the need for coaching for NEET, I suggest she opts for offline classes instead of online ones.

Ans: If you have all the necessary credentials, you're likely to secure a public sector job. However, I encourage you to think more broadly and consider applying for private sector positions as well. Your salary and job title can change quickly, depending on your qualifications. Additionally, after gaining skills, knowledge, and experience over a few years, you might even consider starting your own business. Aim high!

Ans: Your query is unclear to me. You mentioned that you took the board exam in 2024, so why are you repeating it in 2025? The same goes for math. What are your next steps? Based on your future plans, you need to consider your options.

Ans: ELIGIBILITY RELATED TO AGE:
Eligibility for appearing in NEET (UG), as per related Regulations of NMC
and DCI are as follows:-
5.1.1. He/she has completed 17 years of age at the time of admission or will
complete that age on or before 31 December of the year of his/her
admission to the first year of the Undergraduate Medical Course.
Accordingly, the lower age limit shall be as under:
For Candidates of General (UR)/General-EWS born on or
before
31.12.2008
For Candidates of SC/ST/OBCNCL/
PwBD/PwD Category
5.1.2. Upper age limit: As per Letter No. U-11022/2/2022-UGMEB,
dated 09 March 2022 received from National Medical
Commission (NMC), Under Graduate Medical Education Board
(UGMEB) regarding the upper age limit, there is no upper age
limit.

ELIGIBILITY RELATED TO COURSE:
CODE: 06
B.Sc. Examination of an Indian University provided that
he/she has passed the B.Sc. Examination with not less than
two of the subjects Physics, Chemistry, Biology (Botany,
Zoology)/Biotechnology and further that he/ she has passed
the earlier qualifying examination with Physics, Chemistry,
Biology, and English.

KINDLY NOTE: Based on the facts and guidelines surrounding NEET, I would like to offer the following comments.
There is no need to worry about the age limit because the NTA is not concerned about your upper age limit. However, your educational qualifications must match the requirements. You fall under the Code 6 category.

If you have completed your undergraduate degree in Science (which you didn’t mention, but I’m predicting), consider whether stating your BSc is worthwhile. Ultimately, your eligibility depends on matching your Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC) qualifications. If your HSC does not align with the requirements, you will not be eligible to appear for NEET. If you are eligible based on your HSC, then focus on your HSC score rather than Code 6.

Wishing you the best of luck!

Ans: Hi Kanakavalli,
Greetings.
You can definitely appear for NEET 2026. It can be very challenging to balance NEET preparation with your regular undergraduate course, especially since I don’t know much about your specific situation. Without understanding your circumstances, it’s difficult to provide tailored advice.

However, I suggest you consider the following factors:

1. Determine which option is more beneficial for you.
2. Assess the value of the less important option and whether it will be useful in the future.

Focus on what is superior and concentrate your efforts on that to achieve your goal. If something is not useful for your future, it may just be a waste of your time. Remember, time is more precious than money.

If it’s possible for you to manage both, go for it, as long as you are confident in your abilities. However, keep in mind that in the academic year 2026-27, you will be in your third year. By 2026, you will be eligible for MBBS admission. In that situation, it’s likely that you would choose to discontinue the undergraduate course you are currently pursuing.

Therefore, it would be wise to focus on NEET and work towards becoming eligible for it.

Once you decide to pursue your PG, you’ll need to go through the necessary process. So don’t worry; you can complete the tasks in a short time. If you find yourself feeling stuck due to your work schedule and stress, I recommend trying to relax by doing the following:

- Practice meditation
- Hire freshers or interns on a part-time basis

These two steps should be sufficient to help you move forward.
Best of Luck.

Ans: Hi Jeeva,
Since your niece was born in the USA, why not try applying there? By birth, she should be a green card holder. As a green card holder, she can explore opportunities in the US, and she may also be eligible for scholarships.

Alternatively, you can consider her taking the NEET exam. Since you mentioned she is expected to score above 650, she should have a good chance of getting into medical colleges in Tamil Nadu. She can also look into other national entrance exams.

Ans: To qualify for the OBC NCL quota, you must provide an OBC-NCL certificate. Therefore, it is essential that you approach the relevant authority to obtain this certificate. If you have enough time before the deadline, you can apply for it now. However, if you're pressed for time, you can also apply later and present the certificate during the admission process.
While filling out the application form, make sure to include all necessary details and attach any relevant documents. If you overlook these steps, you might encounter the same issues again. Please strive to avoid such mistakes in the future.

Ans: Hi,
Yes, you can provide a bank account number, but it must be in the candidate's name. To avoid any confusion, please submit one of the following ID details:

- Class 12 admit card with photograph
- Passport number
- Ration card number

Ans: Hi,
I believe you have completed your degree in medicine.
To join the postgraduate program, the following must be considered:
- Faculty
- Infrastructure
- Bed occupancy rate.
If all three are satisfactory, then you can obviously join the course.

Ans: Your son is still pursuing his MBBS degree and has yet to complete his final year and internship. Discussing postgraduate courses at this point is premature, as MBBS is just a foundational qualification. Based on his interests, he will need to consider his next steps after completing his degree.

Moreover, all national institutions and state government medical colleges are excellent options for further education.

Ans: Hi Sohan,

I believe your child is currently in 11th grade (PCMB). There are many options available after completing 12th grade.

It's important to encourage your child to focus on gaining admission to professional courses.

Provide guidance and motivation to help them secure a spot in these programs.

If that doesn't work out, you might want to consider Microbiology as an alternative, but that can be explored later.

Ans: Hi Sravanthi,

You've shared very limited information about your education. Based on your inquiry, I suggest that pursuing a course online can be quite challenging these days. It may be difficult for you to manage distance education effectively. Perhaps you could consider exploring other business opportunities rather than focusing solely on counseling. There are many possibilities available for women empowerment. Please rethink your situation and send me your query again.

Ans: Hi, it's a good query. Before I answer your question, I do have a significant doubt: why are you choosing AFMC? Is there a specific reason? There are many procedures to follow when joining AFMC (since it is related to the Armed Forces) compared to the open NEET exam.

According to AFMC regulations, to be eligible for admission to the MBBS program in 2026, the candidate must be born between January 1, 2003, and December 31, 2009.

According to your inquiry, you are NOT ELIGIBLE for admission to MBBS in AFMC.

Ans: In the pharmaceutical industry, it is essential for companies to conduct clinical trials before marketing their products, especially for fixed-dose combinations that involve multiple drug molecules in a formulation.

In clinical research, physicians and medical professionals can pursue various job roles, such as investigators or monitors. Key activities include:

- Clinical Trials: Testing of new drugs with the patients
- Bioavailability/Bioequivalence (BA/BE) Studies: Comparing innovator drugs with new formulations to assess their effectiveness.

Ans: Hi, OBC certificate is very old. The validity of the caste certificate is one year. You may use the same certificate for application purposes, but you must have a valid one, including the creamy layer and Non-Creamy Layer (NCL) status, at the time of admission. Your admission will be based on this. Therefore, it is advisable to obtain a new certificate.
Better apply for same and get it ASAP.

You mentioned only the NEET PG score, but that alone is not sufficient for admission to the course. Other factors are also considered in the admission process. Therefore, it's difficult to address your query with the limited information provided.

If you have more details, please share them, and I'll do my best to help.

Ans: Hi,
You mentioned the NEET score, but it will not be sufficient for admission to the course. In addition to the NEET score, other factors must be considered, such as gender, caste, and whether you belong to the creamy layer or non-creamy layer. Therefore, it’s challenging to answer your query without more information

Ans: Hi Ishika,

The path you choose can vary from individual to individual, and I’m not sure where you’re from, so I can’t provide specific guidance on that.

When selecting a college, it’s important to choose one that has proper infrastructure and experienced faculty. They should conduct practical sessions during the designated lab hours. This is a fundamental aspect of your education. After completing your degree, you will need to pursue a postgraduate program (PG).

If you’re not interested in pursuing a PG, you might consider a career in marketing. Entry-level packages typically start from 4 to 8 LPA. After a few years, you could pursue an MBA through part-time, distance education, or an online course. This combination of Pharmacy and Management is particularly beneficial for those interested in a marketing career.

Within a maximum of 10 years, you could reach a frontline position.

Being female, this option may be particularly advantageous for you.

If you have any further questions or need additional information, feel free to ask.

Ans: Yes, why not? You can score more than 680+. The only requirement is that you need to put in a lot of effort. Learn strategies and tips to help you succeed. If you have a strong understanding of Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Biology (PCMB), it is highly achievable. By now, you should be aware of your strengths and weaknesses in these subjects.

Here’s a simple example of a tip or trick:

Among the given compounds, which one is more non-polar: C3, C10, C5, or C18? The answer is C18. (The trick here is that as the number of carbon atoms in the chain increases, the compound becomes more non-polar.)

So, stay focused and concentrate on your studies. You will only have to work hard for two months, so make sure to work smart as well as hard.

Ans: IISc is a premier institute. When planning to join a prestigious institution, it's important not to focus solely on the eligibility criteria. Generally, the minimum eligibility for admission varies between 50-60%. This means that if you have at least 60% marks in the required subjects, you still may not guarantee admission, as many aspirants intend to pursue their studies at the same institute. Consequently, competition can be intense, and some applicants might not secure a place.

Please note that the admission selection process typically involves an entrance exam conducted either by the institute itself or by a testing agency. According to your query, the basic eligibility to pursue an undergraduate program at IISc is 60%, and candidates are also required to appear for the entrance exam.

For your reference, I have extracted this information from the IISc website. If you need any further details, kindly feel free to POOCHO. LIFE CHANGE KARO!

Eligibility criteria
Applicants must be Indian nationals, OCI/PIO/Foreign Nationals to apply for IAT 2025.

The candidates must have passed the Class XII (or equivalent) examination with science stream from any board recognized by the Council of Boards of School Education (COBSE) in India. Foreign Nationals need to upload an equivalence certificate issued by the Association of Indian Universities unless they have passed the Class XII or equivalent level examination from any board recognized by the Council of Boards of School Education (COBSE) in India. The equivalence certificate must be uploaded while submitting the IAT 2025 Application Form under "Please upload copy of document supporting your claim of Foreign National (You'll need to produce original when necessary)".

Candidates should have been born on or after October 01, 2000. Five years of age relaxation is given to SC, ST, and PwD candidates, i.e, these candidates should have been born on or after October 01, 1995. Note that, there is no restriction based on the completion year of Class XII.

Candidates must have taken at least three subjects among Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics during their Class XII (or equivalent) examination.

Candidates belonging to SC/ST/PwD are required to score a minimum of 55% marks in aggregate or equivalent grade in their Class XII (or equivalent) examination. Candidates belonging to other categories are required to score a minimum of 60% marks in aggregate or equivalent grade in their Class XII (or equivalent) examination.

NOTE:
Candidates belonging to Kashmiri Pandit/Kashmiri Hindu Families (Non-Migrants) may apply for the IAT 2025 as Kashmiri Migrants subject to the fullfillment of other eligibility criteria. These candidates must upload a valid domicile certificate at the time of application under "Kashmiri Migrant Certificate".

Admission to IISERs
Admission to IISERs is exclusively through the IISER Aptitude Test (IAT), which is a computer-based test scheduled on Sunday, May 25, 2025 at 9:00 AM, at various centres across the country.

Performance Criteria in Class XII (or equivalent examination)
Candidates whose Class XII (or equivalent) examination results have not yet been declared can apply for IAT 2025. However, their admission will be subject to fulfilling the minimum eligibility criteria given above.
For candidates who have appeared in the Class XII (or equivalent) examination multiple times (for whatever reasons), the best of the performances in terms of aggregate in a given year will be considered.
If a board gives aggregate marks considering both Class XI and Class XII, then only Class XII (or equivalent) examination marks will be considered. If a board gives aggregate marks considering the results of all three years of a 3-year diploma or courses of equivalent duration, then only the marks scored in the final year will be considered. Similarly, the marks scored in the final two semesters will be considered for boards that follow a semester system.
If a board awards only letter grades without providing an equivalent percentage of marks on the grade-sheet, the candidate should obtain a certificate from the board specifying the equivalent marks and submit it before the deadline of the mark-sheet submission. In case the board does not provide such a certificate, the percentage marks will be assessed as follows:

percentage marks = (CGPA or CPI obtained × 100) / PS,
where PS is the maximum value of the point scale used by the respective board.
Reservation Policy
Reservation policies as mandated by the Govt. of India will apply
Scheduled Caste (SC) - 15% of seats
Scheduled Tribe (ST) - 7.5% of seats
Other Backward Classes belonging to the Non-Creamy Layer (OBC-NCL) - 27% of seats
Persons with Disability (PwD) with at least 40% impairment - 5% of seats (horizontal, within the same category)
Kashmiri Migrants - 3 seats per IISER (supernumerary)
Economically Weaker Section (EWS) - up to 10% (as per Government of India rules)
Note that the EWS/OBC-NCL certificate should be issued on or after April 01, 2025

Ans: Hi Sona,
The validity of the caste certificate is one year. You may use the same certificate for application purposes, but you must have a valid one, including the creamy layer and Non-Creamy Layer (NCL) status, at the time of admission. Your admission will be based on this. Therefore, it is advisable to obtain a new certificate.
Best of Luck.

For your specific situation, you need to appear for the entrance exam for TEST PAPER SCQP17, based on the course you have studied and the one you have selected. In some cases, the syllabus is also provided. Therefore, you don’t need to struggle with the admission process. However, you should research which courses are offered by each university to gather the necessary details individually. If you haven't registered this time, you can always try again next time. Please note: A candidate can take up to four different test papers.
Both courses are acceptable, but consider pursuing an MSc in Clinical Embryology and Assisted Reproductive Technology for a better future.

Ans: Hi thamarai
Every university provides a designated time frame for completing courses. In your case, you will have the opportunity to finish your program, and your degree will not be canceled. Focus on completing your coursework and moving forward.

Ans: NEET generally requires a central government caste certificate, which should specify whether it is for NCL (Non-Creamy Layer) or Creamy Layer. It is advisable to apply for and obtain this certificate.
