Hello,
To become an oncologist after completing your 12th (Science stream), follow these steps:
1. Pursue MBBS: Clear entrance exams like NEET to get into a recognized medical college and complete a 5.5-year MBBS degree.
2. Complete MD: After MBBS, appear for PG entrance exams (NEET-PG) and pursue a 3-year MD in General Medicine or Pediatrics.
3. Super Specialization: After MD, qualify for DM (Doctorate of Medicine) in Medical Oncology, which takes another 3 years.
4. Gain Experience: Post-training, work in hospitals or research institutions.
The entire process typically takes around 11-14 years, including studies and specialization.
Hope it helps !
