Is there any course other than mbbs or going through Neet examination to become surgeon.

Hi

Through Neet examination one can get admission in following courses:-

• MBBS
• BDS
• Ayush courses like BHMS, BAMS etc
• Veterinary i. e BVSc

States like Maharashtra also use neet for providing admission in BSC nursing etc.

But through non of these course you can directly become a surgeon on the completion of the course

This is because,

To become a surgeon you need to do MS i. e Masters in surgery which is a 3 year postgraduate program that you can get admission in after your MBBS.

Here's a brief of how you can become a surgeon :-

*First of all you need to do mbbs

*Admission in Mbbs is through NEET examination, So, along with your 10+2 keep preparing for Neet examination

* Pass your 12th with at least 50 % in aggregate of PCB ( in theory +practical) in 12th examination if you belong to general category , or at least 45% in aggregate of PCB if belongs to ph category or at least 40% in aggregate of PCB if belongs to Obc/ Sc /st to be eligible for neet.

*Appear for Neet examination and qualify it

*Then attend counselling and then on the basis of marks or Rank obtained by you in NEET examination you will get a seat for MBBS in a medical college

* After the completion of MBBS, you need to appear for PG entrance examination, currently, some of the PG entrance examinations include:-
-) Neet PG ,
-) AIIMS PG
-)PGIMER
-)JIPMER PG.
You can know about different PG entrance examination for MS at

* if you clear PG entrance examination then to become a surgeon, you need to do MS i. e Master of surgery which is a 3year long course. After the completion of your MS you can practice as a surgeon.

* you can even go for super specialisation in surgery like M. Ch i. e Magister Chirurgiae, which is a three year long duration course and doctors with MCH are those who are the best paid.

Thank you
