Hello mam, I appeared for NEET 2023 this was my third attempt but my marks are not enough to get a gov. Med college. Hence, I am thinking to take partial drop this time and appear for neet 2024,but I am confused about which stream to choose along with my neet preparation. I passed class 12 in 2021 with PCMB, but after 2021 I took a drop for neet hence my maths is not in practice right now. But as I had PCMB I thought that taking Btech in CSE as a safe option. What should I do and what should be the correct course to choose as I want to prepare again?

Ans: Hello Ashvi,
I have to answer it in a practical and realistic way.

There is nothing called a partial drop. Whatever course you enroll in will require some attention, time & energy. Which is very limited. As you have repeated NEET twice already you can understand it well. You cannot give equal time to both.

If you are serious and committed enough to give it all in the next NEET attempt and becoming a doctor is your only dream then only go for it. Else you can pursue it from abroad also. I can help you with that.

Else taking a B.tech course in C.S.E will be a good option.

All the best.

I completed 12th class recently with PCMB subjects and have given cet( for engineering and pharmacy) and neet exams. My Score in neet is very low and moderate score in cet. I am unable to think of my career choices and confused about different fields. I can't decide my interests and skills. What should I do to choose the best field that suits me well
Ans: Selecting a suitable field after completing PCMB requires balancing personal strengths, evolving industry demand, institutional quality, career progression, and real-world exposure. Self-assessment through a standardized 'Psychometric Test' helps reveal innate interests and cognitive strengths, guiding choices between analytical domains like engineering and data science or life-science-oriented fields such as biotechnology and healthcare management. Research shows that students excelling in problem-solving and quantitative reasoning thrive in AI/ML, data analytics, software development, and engineering disciplines, all supported by institutions that rank highly for faculty qualifications, accreditation (NBA/NAAC), modern labs, industry partnerships, and placement consistency over the past three years (80–95% placements). Conversely, those drawn to biology and human-centric work benefit from programs in biotechnology, molecular genetics, pharmacology, environmental science, and allied health sciences offered by universities with strong research output, interdisciplinary curricula, and mandatory internships that bolster employability (70–85% placement rates). Interdisciplinary options—biomedical engineering, environmental data science, and food technology—combine both skill sets and are emerging as high-growth sectors (75–90% placement consistency). Additionally, professional guidance from certified career counsellors and mentorship programs aids clarity by mapping academic interests to viable career trajectories and recommended entrance pathways (JEE, NEET, BITSAT, state CETs). Engaging alumni networks and conducting informational interviews offers genuine information about day-to-day roles and long-term prospects. As backup options beyond state engineering CETs, consider private-university entrance exams (BITSAT, SRMJEEE, VITEEE, COMEDK-UGET, IIIT Delhi’s IPU CET) to diversify admission opportunities and secure seats in reputed institutions.

Final recommendation: Undertake a structured self-assessment using aptitude tests and expert counselling to align your interests with career domains. Focus on engineering and data-science pathways if quantitative problem-solving appeals to you, ensuring you choose institutions with NBA/NAAC accreditation, modern labs, and 80–95% placement records. Alternatively, explore biotechnology or environmental science for biology-driven aspirations; back up your plan by registering for national private-university exams such as BITSAT and VITEEE. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
