Dear Anjali, NEET is the entrance examinatiom for admission to Medical, Dental and Ayush colleges across India. The colleges might be Government or Private and the seats might be Government or Management seats. Now NEET is also mandatory for studying Medicine abroad. And now NEET score is being considered for Veterinary Sciences as well. So, in short if you want to become a Doctor either in India or abroad, you have to appear for NEET. If you want to become a Dentist/Homeopathy Doctor/Ayurvedic Doctor or even a Veterinary Doctor, NEET is mandatory. It cannot be summed up any better.
