Science (PCB)NEET

BiPC → NEET → MBBS → Doctor (General / Specialist)

BiPC students who clear NEET-UG gain admission to MBBS — a 5.5-year undergraduate medical degree (including 1-year internship) at government or private medical colleges. NEET 2025 saw 22 lakh students compete for approximately 1.1 lakh MBBS seats — making it one of India's most competitive paths. Government MBBS is nearly free; private colleges charge ₹50 lakh to ₹1.5 crore in fees. This is the foundation for all medical specializations — surgery, gynecology, pediatrics, psychiatry, cardiology — and the most respected health career in India.
