Hello aspirant,

Hope you are doing well. There is no single right and wrong answer to this. For many students, taking a drop makes sense. For others, it doesnt.
In this article, I will consider the most typical situations where students consider taking a drop, and then compare the consider before taking a drop year in each.

The 3 most common scenarios are:

You were unable to clear your targeted entrance exam

You didnt score well in both boards and entrance exams

You havent prepared for entrance exams till now


The biggest roadblocks students face during their drop year are dips in motivation. With a lack of the routine of school and a stable support system of social life, students often falter, slack off, or even become gloomy/frustrated. Thus, an important area to evaluate is your own persistence and resilience levels. If you lack the support system from your family, mentor, friends to keep you on the right track throughout the year, or if you find it difficult to keep yourself motivated, then your drop year might not deliver you the kind of results you are hoping it would.

Taking a year drop doesnt mean its the end of the road for you. It only means that you have taken an extra year to give a better chance to your career. Dont listen to people who tell you that dropping your year means you are risking your career.
At the same time, do not get into it blindly without evaluating if its even right for you or not. Carefully consider your options, and if need be, career experts are always there to help.

Hope this information will help you.

All the best!

Hi,

I hope you are doing well.

Yes of course you can drop to prepare for neet but there are few things you have to keep in mind before you plan to drop :-

Plan everything, see that you want to do be a doctor in future or not, is this your ambition or not.


Give yourself a day or two and decide everything discuss it with your parents and other seniors.


Once you get determined that you want to drop and prepare for NEET then keep this thing in mind there's no going back.


  • Devote yourself to prepare for the same.
  • Enroll yourself in some coaching classes.
  • Solve mock questions as much as you can that will boost your confidence.
  • Make a study plan and stick to it.
  • Donot let negatively and stress get the best of you.
  • Stay motivated and keep yourself happy.


All the best!
