Hello there,

Admission to medical courses is not always based only on NEET. Here are the key points:

• NEET is the mandatory entrance exam for admission to MBBS, BDS, and many other medical-related courses across India. It is the primary qualifying exam for almost all medical colleges.

• For some paramedical, allied health, or diploma courses , admission may be based on merit in the qualifying exam (like 12th marks) or through separate entrance exams conducted by universities or states.

• Some institutions also consider management quota seats or institutional quotas , where admission might be based on other criteria set by the college, but NEET qualification is usually still required for medical courses.

• For postgraduate medical courses , admission is through exams like NEET-PG , while some universities may have additional rounds like counseling or interviews.

In summary, for MBBS and BDS, NEET is compulsory, but for other medical or paramedical courses, admission may involve merit, other exams, or institutional processes.
