Ans: Hi Madam,

It's great to see that you are putting in a lot of effort to help your daughter pursue a career in medicine. Before making any decisions, it’s important to consider your daughter's interests. If she is willing to follow your guidance, that's wonderful.

I understand she is in 12th grade this year. If that’s the case, here are some recommendations:

1. Clearing Doubts: Compare the NEET syllabus with the 11th and 12th-grade board syllabus. She will likely have many doubts about each chapter. It’s essential for her to address these doubts daily with the help of her teachers. She can also ask questions about tips, tricks, mnemonics, or easier ways to understand topics. This will help her significantly during exams.

For example:
i) Among the following, which one is highly nonpolar?
a. n-pentane
b. neopentane
c. isopentane

ii) Among the following, which one is more acidic?
a. oxalic acid
b. tartaric acid
c. phthalic acid.

2. Best Plan Consideration: Focus on creating one effective plan rather than thinking about multiple options (Plan A, Plan B, or Plan C). There are many influencers who may confuse you, but you are the best judge of what your daughter needs.

Remember, education should empower us, not the other way around. Select a course that aligns with this philosophy. In that regard, I suggest considering the following three paths:
A. Medicine
B. BDS (Bachelor of Dental Surgery)
C. Pharmacy (this is a final option since it doesn’t require NEET).

Why these three? Simply put, they allow her to start her own venture. Other courses may be more challenging, and once completed, no one will come knocking on her door. She must acquire the necessary skills while studying.

If she is not fully prepared for the exam this year, let her attempt it to familiarize herself with the exam-related challenges such as tension, time management, confusion, and distractions from peers in the exam hall. Encourage her to practice yoga and meditation to help mitigate these issues. Taking a drop year is not a negative option, but she must continue preparing for the exam and should not sit idly at home. She should create her own study calendar and adhere to it, which will help guide her progress.

If you implement the above suggestions, I am confident she will secure a medical seat comfortably.

BEST WISHES.

Ans: Let her either concentrate on NEET or research.
To complete the UG in medicine, NEET is essential.
To do research, at least a few basic skills are required. At least a basic degree is required to think or to do, or to conduct.

For example, even a homemaker, whatever she does, a new thing is based on her own research with acquired skills.

After MBBS also she can also opt for research.
So being her first drop in NEET let her concentrate on NEET preparation alone rather than the junk of ALL and the master of NONE. If you prefer some other program, then both will dilute, and later you will need to do research on where you made a mistake.
Finally, my humble question to you, whether your daughter is interested in appearing for NEET or not? If not, do accordingly.
This is my suggestion.
With regards
