The first step toward becoming a neuroscientist would be doing 12th Science with subjects Physics, Chemistry Mathematics and Biology.

You should have a minimum aggregate of 50% in 12th.

Next  choose a bachelor’s program that has courses in biology, physiology, psychology, and human anatomy. Bachelor’s degrees that prepare applicants for medical school would be the best.

The bachelors would require 3 years of study .Then opt for a Masters in Neuroscience i.e. M.Sc Neuroscience. This  is a 2 year full time post graduate course. After the completion of post graduation you must opt for Ph.D in Neuroscience. To be eligible there you need Qualifying M.Sc. in Neuroscience with 55% from a recognized university . It  might take 3-5 years.

After that you may be called as a neuroscientist.

Hope you like it
