Science (PCB)NEET

BiPC → NEET → BAMS / BHMS / BUMS / BSMS / BNYS → Alternative Medicine Doctor

BiPC students who use NEET scores for AYUSH admissions can pursue BAMS (Ayurveda), BHMS (Homeopathy), or BUMS (Unani) — 5.5-year professional degrees recognized by the Government of India. AYUSH practitioners can register and practice independently, join government AYUSH health centres, or work in the growing wellness and natural medicine industry. This is a practical alternative for students who want a medical career but cannot compete for limited MBBS or BDS seats.
