Hii,
You can select a related course, such as BVSc, through state-level exams to become a veterinarian without NEET (some states don't need NEET). Additionally, you can take courses in veterinary assistant, dairy farming, or animal science.
Afterwards, pursue a degree or diploma in veterinary medicine. Work with farms or veterinarians to get experience. Stay informed at all times and put in a lot of study time. For non-NEET options, ask your state board.
Hello Manish,
To become a veterinary doctor in India, clearing NEET-UG is mandatory for admission into BVSc & AH (Bachelor of Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry) programs. However, if you're looking for alternatives or ways to stay involved in the veterinary field without NEET, here are some options:
-
Pursue related diploma or certification courses : You can take up veterinary-related diploma courses like:
-
Diploma in Veterinary Pharmacy
-
Diploma in Animal Husbandry
-
Diploma in Dairy Technology
These do not require NEET and can lead to supporting roles in veterinary care.
-
-
Apply for state-level entrance exams : Some states conduct their own entrance exams for veterinary seats. NEET is becoming a standard, but you can still check with state veterinary universities if they allow non-NEET pathways.
-
Work as a veterinary assistant : You can join veterinary clinics, farms, or animal shelters as an assistant to gain practical experience.
-
B.Sc. in related fields : Consider B.Sc. programs in Zoology, Animal Science, Microbiology, or Biotechnology, which can serve as a foundation for future specialized training in animal health.
-
Lateral entry or distance learning : Some institutes may offer lateral entry or distance learning programs in animal sciences, but these won't qualify you to become a veterinary doctor.
To officially become a registered veterinary doctor in India, NEET is currently required for BVSc & AH admission.
