Choosing Medicine or Engineering: Need Advice for My Son's Future

Ans: Hello Duvvuru,

To begin with, thank you for contacting us. I am happy to hear that your son is currently pursuing his MBBS degree in Belarus. To answer your question first, I would like to let you know that a number of variables play a key role in selecting the optimal option for Postgraduate i.e. PG studies after completing an MBBS degree in Belarus. You son has two possibilities, either to pursue PG in Belarus or return to his home country in order to pursue additional study. Both options have their distinct advantages.

On the one hand, continuing postgraduate studies in Belarus could provide experience with the system, access to global viewpoints, as well as meaningful contacts within the medical community in Europe. On the contrary, coming back to the home country to pursue Postgraduate studies may provide opportunity to adhere to particular prerequisites for residence, integrate with the healthcare system, and can possibly lessen obstacles caused by linguistic or cultural limitations. To provide the best match for your son’s future goals, I would recommend that you make a choice taking in account the standard of education, future professional aspirations, as well as individual choices.

Ans: Hello Dinesh,

Thank you for reaching out to us. To get to your question, I think it’s crucial that first of all, your son should determines which field he wants to pursue—MBBS or B.Tech. The choice of career path should guide the decision on which college and country to consider. Irrespective of the location, the focus should be on aligning his interests and career goals with the right educational program. Once he has a clear idea of his desired profession, evaluating the best institutions for that specific field, will become more straightforward.

Ans: Hi Dinesh
NeXt will apply to both Indian & Foreign Medical graduates. Only thing will be your son has to go for 1 year extra internship in India. Please discuss this with him first in which field he want to make career.

Ans: Hi Dinesh,

I believe he has been admitted to Punjab University in the ECE branch, right? Congratulations!

I'm curious why you asked about admissions related to MBBS. Even if your child wants to study medicine in foreign countries, they must qualify through the NEET exam to be eligible. Since you didn't share those details, I’m assuming your child has not yet taken the NEET exam. In that case, it might be better for him to continue with his current path rather than pursuing medicine.

After completing a medical program, he would need to pass an exit exam in India to qualify as a doctor, and only then would he be able to do an internship here. Before making any decisions about quitting his admission at Punjab University, I recommend consulting with your son regarding these matters.
