Hello aspirant,

If you want to become a heart surgeon in India, then you must start preparing after clearing the 10th boards. To become a surgeon , you must opt for PCB stream for 10+2 education, which consists of Physics , Chemistry and Biology . After passing 10+2, you can appear for the NEET entrance examination and before that check the eligibility criteria in the official website. Upon clearing the NEET, you will be pursuing an MBBS degree programme from the college that you have been assigned based on the cutoffs of NEET and other factors.


After completing the MBBS degree, you can pursue a master's degree to advance your career. You can pursue a Master of Surgery (MS) to specialise and there you the specific area of your studies.

I hope the answer will help you, and for more information follow the https://www.careers360.com/ .

Best of luck for your future endeavours.
