Hello,


In order to fulfill your dream of being doctor, you have to appear for NEET which from 2020 onwards will be  the sole entrance exam for admission to MBBS course. Earlier, AIIMS and JIPMER used to conduct their own entrance exam, which no longer will take place.


You need to fulfill the following criteria for appearing in NEET-


Attained 17 years age by 31st December, 2020.

Passed  or appearing 10+2 from a recognized board with Physics, Chemistry, Biology/Biotechnology and English as core subjects, those having Biology as an additional are also eligible to apply.

Eligibility Criteria for NEET is based on PCB aggregate only against each category mentioned below-

UR - 50%,

OBC/SC/ST - 40%,

PWD - 45%

There's no upper age limit in NEET, so no restriction also in terms of appearing for this examination.

Hey!There

Your aim to be a doctor for that you have to course MBBS course or other course releated to Medical like BDS,BHAMS etc.Pursuing medical courses from goverment medical college will be really beneficial to you..There are lot of goverment medical colleges for medical course in which you can get admission after qualifying their entrance EXAMINATION with good score..First EXAMINATION is NEET with this EXAMINATION you can get seat in NEETs Colleges which is equivalent to state government medical college And other one is AIIMS entrance EXAMINATION after qualifying this EXAMINATION you can get seat in AIIMS.But seats in AIIMS Colleges is very less as there are only 13 AIIMS in India
