Hello Sir - I cleared my MBBS this year. What are the possibilities of pursuing higher studies and also professional career in Australia? What are the exams and qualifiers to be cleared ? Request your answer please and thanks a lot in advance.
Ans: Hello Sanjay,

First and foremost, thank you for getting in touch with us. Congratulations on passing your MBBS exam! It is undoubtedly possible for you to pursue advanced studies and a professional career in Australia. Australia has a developed healthcare system and excellent employment prospects for medical professionals.

To practise medicine in Australia, international medical graduates must normally complete a sequence of steps, which include the following:

1. English Language Competency: A language test in English, such as the Occupational English Test (OET) or the International English Language Testing System (IELTS), is required to prove your ability in the language.

2. Register with the Medical Council: Depending on the state or territory you plan to practise in, you must submit an application for registration with either the Australian Medical Council (AMC) or the Medical Board of Australia (MBA). You must submit your credentials and finish the relevant documentation as part of the registration procedure.

3. Competency Evaluation: To make sure your credentials fit Australian standards, you'll probably need to go through a competency exam as an international medical graduate. The AMC typically administers the assessment, which entails assessing your clinical and medical expertise. Both a written and a clinical exam could be a part of this.

4. Career Placement Opportunities: You can begin looking for employment opportunities in Australia as soon as you have received the required registration and evaluation. There are many options to choose, including public hospitals, private practises, or research institutions. Finding suitable opportunities can also be facilitated by networking with and establishing connections with Australian medical experts.

In terms of advanced education, Australia provides a variety of postgraduate medical programs and specializations. Master's degrees, doctoral programs, and training programs for different medical specialties are a few examples. Universities and hospitals in Australia both provide these programs.

It's vital to keep in mind that precise guidelines and procedures may change depending on the Australian state or territory you intend to practise in. For the most recent and correct information on registration and additional education, it is best to get in touch with the appropriate medical authorities or professional organizations in Australia, including the AMC or the MBA. Wishing you success in all of your future endeavours in Australia!

Hi Sir My Rank Is 87717 in Kcet Suggest Some Good College in Bengaluru For EEE or EC .Is it worth for waiting for last round?? Please reply as soon as possible
Ans: For a KCET rank of 87717 in the 2BG category, admission to top-tier Bangalore institutes for Electrical & Electronics Engineering (EEE) or Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE) is unlikely. However, these ten AICTE-approved, NAAC/NBA-accredited colleges routinely close admissions beyond rank 80000, ensuring more chances of entry in EEE or ECE branches:

Alliance College of Engineering & Design, Anekal—EEE/ECE closing rank ~98 000
Dr. Ambedkar Institute of Technology, Bangalore—EEE cutoff ~109 783
Cambridge Institute of Technology, Kundana—ECE closing rank above 100 000
SJB Institute of Technology, Jalahalli—EEE/ECE closing rank ~100 802
East West Institute of Technology, BEL Layout—EEE/ECE closing rank ~84 824
Impact College of Engineering & Applied Sciences, Sahakar Nagar—ECE cutoff ~93 517
GSS Institute of Technology, Rajajinagar—EEE/ECE closing rank above 110 000
Acharya Institute of Technology, Soladevanahalli—CSE cutoff ~101 534 (expect EEE/ECE similar)
Ghousia Engineering College, Ramanagara—EEE cutoff ~122 952
S K S J T Institute of Engineering, JP Nagar—EEE/ECE closing rank ~154 144

Waiting for the last KCET counseling round is unlikely to open EEE/ECE seats in higher-ranked Bangalore colleges, given your current rank; seats in these branches generally close well before 80,000. Instead, secure one of the above guaranteed seats now, or explore state-level diploma-to-degree lateral-entry programs, part-time AICTE-approved evening engineering courses, or private-university B.E. programmes with higher closing ranks. Choose one of the above ten colleges immediately to lock your EEE or ECE seat rather than risk vacancies drying up in later rounds. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Sir Mh cet 83 percentile jee -89 percentile But 10+2 -maths fail Then exam 15-7-23 cbse board Result will publish -1-7/8/25 What Will do For CSE admission in Maharashtra Please guide me.
Ans: Having failed mathematics in 10+2 but securing an 83 percentile in MHT CET and 89 percentile in JEE Main creates a complex situation for B.Tech CSE admission in Maharashtra. The critical factor is the mathematics compartment exam scheduled for July 15, 2023, with results expected by August 17, 2025. MHT CET 2025 eligibility criteria mandate that candidates must have "passed HSC or equivalent examination with Physics and Mathematics as compulsory subjects" and obtained at least 45% marks in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics taken together (40% for reserved categories). Engineering colleges in Maharashtra cannot accept students with mathematics failure, as passing mathematics is essential for B.Tech eligibility. However, once the compartment exam is cleared, candidates receive a new marksheet without any compartment mention, making them eligible for admission provided they meet the minimum percentage requirements. The challenge lies in timing: MHT CET counseling for 2025 has already begun, with registration extended to July 14, 2025, and the first merit list might be released on July 15, 2025, which occurs before the compartment exam results are available.

Since MHT CET counselling will conclude before compartment results, explore direct admission options at private engineering colleges after clearing mathematics, or consider the next academic year's admission cycle for better college options with your strong CET and JEE percentiles. (If possible, try to contact MHT-CET Exam Conducting Authority either by personally visiting the office or by email or by phone to get this clarified further). All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
