can I become a psychiatrist without having to go through 5.5 years of MBBS?
Hi, Hope you are safe and doing good
No,passing the MBBS is a pre-requisite for being considered for a PG seat in Psychiatry. So,it means without a MBBS degree you cannot be a Psychiatrist.
But, definitely you can become a psychologist. For that you need to complete your Bachelors and Masters Degree in Psychology. And typically, you need to do an internship for couple of years.
Psychology deals with behavior of a person an psychologists can apply their finding knowledge to a lot of services.
And, after getting your degree and completing your internship you can be hired as a Clinical Psychologist or as a Counselor. Not only this,you can also be hired as an Industrial or Social Psychologist .
Hope it helps
