can I leave my BAMS 1st year from Maharashtra as I am expecting MBBS this year? What's the process and all those penalties and fine?
Dear Harsh,
MBBS(Bachelor's of Medicine and Bachelor's of Surgery) and BAMS(Bachelor's of Ayurveda, Medicine and Surgery) are different degrees. Yes, you can definitely leave BAMS and if you want to leave BAMS, you will have to drop that year and start from fresh in MBBS that is from 1st semester itself. You can't migrate from BAMS to MBBS directly. So, as this will be fresh start in MBBS. There will be no sort of penalty or fine as such.
And, If you are transferring your degree from BAMS to MBBS in the same college or university, then certain rules of University will occur as program exchange fee or some sort of thing which varies from college to college. If you are changing your course within the college only, then you can enquire the formalities from the college as well. But if you are pursing a fresh MBBS from different university or college, then your one year of BAMS will be dropped, else no such fine will take place most probably.
Hope this helps.
All the Best!!
