No, you cannot directly pursue an MD in Cardiology after a B.Sc. and M.Sc.

There is a key difference between MD (Doctor of Medicine) and M.Sc. (Master of Science) degrees. An MD is a postgraduate medical degree that qualifies you for practice as a doctor, while an M.Sc. is a research-oriented degree.

NEET PG (National Eligibility Entrance Test for Post-graduation) is the entrance exam for MD programs in India. To be eligible for NEET PG, you need to possess an MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery) degree. B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Cardiology wouldn't qualify you for NEET PG.

This is the standard path. Pursue an MBBS degree followed by an MD in Cardiology through NEET PG. This is a long but direct path to becoming a cardiologist.
