Hello Shipra,

Harvard Medical School's MBBS eligibility requirements are as follows:

  • At least 85% in the State Board 10+2 level
  • 70 percent or above in ICSE or CBSE levels
  • A bachelor's degree in biology, chemistry, or a field related to medicine is necessary for this pre-medical course.
  • Scores on the MCAT and NEET tests
  • English proficiency certification


Prior to anything else, make sure you join in a group for your 11th grade that includes Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Math.

Next, take the SATs.

Then submit many pre-medical course applications to American institutions. Your acceptance will be determined on your SAT test results. Pre-medical programmes typically last four years. Pre-med and medicine are occasionally combined in courses. However, that is really unusual, and I'm not sure if it is still present.

Make sure you get top scores in pre-medicine. Spend some time participating in research initiatives; they will be beneficial to you in the future.

After that, take the MCAT. Your ability to get into the medical school of your choosing will depend on your test results, pre-med grades, and other factors like research.

Without include the internship and residency (which can take anywhere between three and seven years, depending on your choice), the US medical field is quite competitive and takes a long time (4 + 4).

However, in India, it only lasts five years, including the internship. When compared to the MCAT, the NEET is much simpler to complete with reasonable effort. Additionally, the price is important. When compared to American institutions, the cost will be lower if you are able to enrol in a government college in India.

Therefore, if you desire, I would advise you to complete your undergraduate studies in India before completing your residency there.

Good Luck !!
