Should I pursue a Govt BDS or try again for MBBS after 12th with 398 marks?

Ans: You are very much interested in pursuing an MBBS. You have not mentioned the Score / AIR you got in NEET.

You have asked whether you should join BDS as if you have got confirmed admission to BDS, I assume.

You are also doing a BSc from a Central University.

OPTIONS FOR YOU:

1) You are interested only in MBBS and NOT in BDS. Only because your parents wish you to join BDS, it is not suggested. Ultimately your satisfaction as a ‘Dentist’ is important. If you feel, you can join BDS, go ahead. Else, NO.

2) Whether you should attempt NEET next year again depends upon what Score / AIR / Marks you got last time. If you scored with a very LOW difference in marks to get an MBBS seat, you can try to attempt NEET again next year.

3) However, it is NOT at all advisable to drop your BSc from the Central University. As you had already prepared for NEET last year, you can fine-tune your preparation strategies for NEET and, at the same time, continue your BSc. Work smart for NEET, rather than hard. Pursuing MBBS is not much easy which also you have to keep in mind. If you are confident and passionate about MBBS, prepare well for NEET to get admission into any one of the reputed Medical College.

Hope I have clarified your doubts.

All The BEST for your Bright Future.

Ans: Hi
At a 556 score, you can't get a seat in the Govt College. But, if you are financially sound, then it is possible to get a seat in PVT medical college or you can think of completing MBBS abroad. If you like BDS, then and then go for that, else think of this choice twice. Repeating NEET once again is a risky factor and again it is not sure that you may get around 650 for a sure-shot seat in Govt College. Before repeating, think twice.
You also said that you have not found any passion yet. Then why you are trying for MBBS without any reason? First, check your interest either in Engineering or medicine or in any other sector.

Advice: Do not repeat, opt for BDS if you are getting a Govt Seat or try MBBS from any pvt medical college from India or abroad.
