In all honesty, this means that she has the chance to take online classes and get a Naturopathy certificate. You need to identify well-known distance learning institutions, and then check their course offerings to see if any of them fit your eligibility criteria.
Once she has decided on which programme she wants to take, it is now time to submit an application letter online with all relevant documents attached. Upon payment of the tuition fee for the program, course materials will be sent right to her door step.&n

- Your best bet would be counseling and seat allocation.
- You can also think of private institutions as well as management quota seats because they might have less stringent cutoffs.
If the Andhra Pradesh EAMCET rank is 22,000 there is low chance for BHMS
