Dear Aspirant

Your situation is one of the most common one. From your writing, I am not able to see your interest towards engineering field at all. I would like to suggest you to think hard before taking any step further as even a medical field is not an easy one or infact any other field. With biology, you can not only go for doctor but can also persue your career as a insect ecologist, pharmaceutical researcher, food scientist and many more.

If you still see yourself as a doctor and don't want any future regrets, you should probably start preparing yourself for next year NEET on your own (with very less investment) and pratically speaking, only biology would be not sufficient for NEET, you should plan smartly if its hard to score in physics and chemistry. Atleast try to score minimum of 320 out of 360 in biology and 120 each in physics and chemistry which will make 560 marks for good government college and keep practising previous year question and give mock test regularly after completion of each chapter. I know it would be not easy but you got to do something for your interest.

And may I know your marks and AIRs in NEET 2019 and prior one as it would really help to know more accurate results.

Hope this helps you.

As per your profile you belong to Karnataka (correct me if I am wrong) where you may still have possibility for getting admission through state quota (if its preferable) in this year as the cut off in year 2018 for ESIC Medical College, Gulbarga for UR category was AIR 99170 and neet marks 374 and there are three other colleges with low cut off.Check them on https://medicine.careers360.com/articles/neet-cutoff-karnatakaAlthough, if you are willing for only all india quota, your marks are not enough for 2019 but I can give you surety, that you can definitely reach upto 560 marks in NEET 2020 as 433 marks are quite good and if you continue to study same as before but more smartly and with more practise, you can get seat through AIQ.Good luck

THANK YOU SOO MUCH....I Belong to KARNATAKA itself... I missed seat in 5 marks... CUTOFF for 3AR( My catogery) is 438... I got 433... In Karnataka, there are division in OBC also, in which 2A(belong to OBC) have same reservation as SC(14%) ... So,that 374 may be only for 2A or 2AR... 3A and 3B are nearly as equal to General catogery...

Hello dear student,

If you still want to pursue in biology only then I would ask you to take admission in plain bsc may be in life sciences or microbiology . So that you can further do your heigher studies in your field and you can do PhD and can still be related to your field. I hope you understand otherwise if there is no chance then you can take admission in engineering too . There are heigher scopes too . You can do bioinformatics and still b related to biology.

I hope this was helpful

Hey jaswanth!

Since you are a die hard bio student I don't think you will be able to adjust yourself in engineering ..after all it's not what your heart wants.. I would suggest you to talk to your parents calmly and try to make up to it or else you can even join some bsc course .. btw what's your neet score this year ?

Hello student,

It's really a difficult choice after reading your conditions. But Still if you are interested in biology and if you are a die hard biology student then rather than engineering you can also opt for B.Sc course in Biology and do honours in it or can do biotechnology. You have many options available rather than engineering with CSE branch. In India there are many scopes for other works too. So go for your interest area!
