I gave neet 2024 and scored 578 marks. It was my third drop. My parents are forcing me to join pvt bds college and prepare for civil examinations. I'really don't want to be a dentist because at the end of graduation, the struggle is real in terms of money and jobs both..Plz suggest me what should i do??

Ans: Hi, I noticed you have provided your NEET score, but you didn't mention any other details. Based on your score, I assume you are interested in pursuing a career in medicine rather than dentistry. Have you analyzed why you scored average in NEET? Which subjects do you need to improve in to clear NEET? Do you think it's possible to achieve a better score if you take the exam for the fourth time? I suggest you analyze this and discuss it with your dad to see if you can come to a decision.

Additionally, your dad mentioned that you can also consider taking the civil service exam. However, this exam can only be taken after completing your degree. You need to decide on the right degree course that will prepare you for the civil service exam, so you don't have to prepare for fresh later.

all the best.

Hello, i really have a serious issue regarding my studies as i am 24 yrs now and gave NEET 4times and i am still preparing for nxt year 2025 but at the back of my mind i am really tensed what if the same thing repeats in the neet 2025 also like paper leak and all, So now i am confused that should i take a full drop or partial drop. The mental pressure is really hitting hard and also its almost been 4years that i am still 12th pass only and my classmates have already completed their college and some are flight attendant and earning well, So this all things just hits so hard and also the hope in parents eyes as my father is already proud that i studied science so i would definitely become doctor. I wasted a lot of money in pg and coaching (fastrack) and this all things are hitting so hard that i really feel sad and have no ways to go.
Ans: Hi Bhima
I must say you have got perseverance & I appreciate your parent's trust in you. You have already appeared multiple times and you are going to appear again in 2025. By the time you will be 25 years old. They say there is no age to learn. But after getting admission you need another 10 years to practice as a qualified specialist. Make sure you take admission in the next session.

If higher cutoff & high fees of private colleges are an issue for you, then try exploring the MBBS abroad option, I can help with that too. Since NEXT is compulsory for Indian & Foreign graduates too it won't make a difference if you study in India or Abroad.

For time forget all the societal pressure and give your 100% and make your parents proud.
