Hi.
Yes, NEET is mandatory for practicing medicine in India, but the details depend on your path:
MBBS / Medical degree abroad:
If you complete an MBBS abroad and want to practice in India, you must pass the FMGE / NExT exam (Foreign Medical Graduate Examination / National Exit Test).
To be eligible for FMGE/NExT, you must have qualified NEET-UG before joining the foreign medical college.
Implication: Even if you study abroad, NEET is required before admission if you plan to work as a doctor in India.
No, not if your goal is to practice in India later.
NEET-UG must be cleared before enrolling in the foreign MBBS programme for the degree

Hi.
BDS seats are very limited in government colleges across India.
For General category, cut-offs in government colleges are generally very high:
Top government colleges (like Maulana Azad, Delhi, Mumbai, etc.) usually require NEET scores ≥ 600–650.
Mid-tier state government colleges cut-offs: 450–550 (may vary by state and category).
370 is unlikely to secure a BDS seat in any government college for General category.
However, private dental colleges or Deemed Universities may have seats available at your score.
