My son has scored 378 in neet 2024 whether he can get a seat in pharm d want to know the scope of pharmd

Ans: Hi Faiz,
Greetings.
There is no direct connection between NEET and Pharm D. NEET exams are not mandatory for Pharmacy programs. If your son wants to pursue Pharm D, you should contact the institutions offering the Pharm D course.

My suggestion is that he should complete his B.Pharm first, and then he can pursue Pharm D (PB). This will give him better opportunities compared to pursuing Pharm D alone.

Career opportunities:
a) Clinical Pharmacist
b) Medical Affairs
c) PMT
d) Medical writing
e) Clinical research
f) Medical Scribe.

I hope this helps!

All the best.

Sir. Good evening. My son is completing B. Pharm this year. What is the future opportunity in service life or in higher study ? Regards Soumitra
Ans: Hi Soumitra,

I hope this message finds you well! I don't have information about which college he is attending, the location, and his economic status. With this information, I can provide better suggestions for career options. However, most students tend to prefer pursuing a post-graduate degree in Pharmacy, with only a few opting for a management course.

I've discussed the career prospects after completing a B.Pharm with other readers, and I wanted to share the information with you for your reference.

After completing a B.Pharm, there are numerous career opportunities available:

1. Industry: Roles in drug and pharmaceutical production/manufacturing, quality control, quality assurance, regulatory affairs, and marketing.
2. Academic: Opportunities as a lecturer in both government and private colleges.
3. Government Jobs: Positions such as drugs inspector and junior analyst.
4. IT Industry: Jobs as a medical scribe or in medical/scientific writing.
5. Pharmacist: Opportunities as a community pharmacist or a hospital pharmacist.
6. International Opportunities: Working as a pharmacist in Gulf countries like Dubai, Qatar, and Oman.
7. Higher Education: Pursuing M.Pharm with over 15 specializations available, Pharm D (PB), or an MBA.

If you could share the additional details, I would be able to offer more support and make further suggestions.

Hii sir ! This is ritika and I love a boy and we are in relationship since 7 years but there are some behavior of him he always have doubt on me that I am dating another boy he always says that start you screenshare in WhatsApp I even do because I don't want to lose him and he saw all of things of my phone yesterday he again asking for that and I do and there was a tab of instagram which was belongs to my roommate it was her I'd open in my chrome browser where she only wants to delete the I'd which she did from my phone these instagram thing happened approx one year ago but when he saw this I told him that was not mine but he continuously said I am cheater I cheated with him again he was like I know you have two mobile phones and you cheated with me. I love him soo much but he cannot try to accept that . Even I don't talk to my male classmate because he didn't want ki main kisi boy se baat karu Is it fair , am I cheater ? I love him unconditionally I support him in all his career or decision but again he was like I cheated with him we are in long distance relationship but I can't cheat him . Literally I am feeling depressed ????
Ans: Dear Ritika,

Please understand that you did nothing wrong. Why would you even question yourself? You know you never cheated. It's his issue that he cannot trust. Yes, in a relationship we all try to comfort our partners but that too should be to a certain extent. And, in that process, if your mental health is being compromised, I don't see how it's a healthy relationship.

I don't want to tell you what to do, but I would reassure you that YOU DID NOTHING WRONG. You don't need to prove yourself anymore. And I can also assure you that no matter what you do, he will still manage to find some flaws and doubt you. It's a typical behavior we see in some partners. You deserve peace, love, and above all, to be trusted.

Best Wishes.
