Well ! It's difficult to take admission through state quota or All India quota as your marks is 130 which is quite low. But you can go for Management quota, just contact the college and discuus. You may get the admission through management quota.

Yes, a BHMS graduate can open a homeopathic clinic after completing their degree and internship. They must register with the State or Central Homeopathy Council to obtain a valid practice license.
Additionally, they need to fulfill legal formalities such as acquiring a clinic establishment certificate, following medical ethics, and ensuring compliance with local health regulations. Some states may require renewal of registration periodically. With proper setup and licensing, BHMS graduates can run successful homeopathy clinics.

|---|---|---|---|
Principle | Like cures like (Similia Similibus Curentur) | Balancing the three doshas (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) | Treats symptoms using drugs and surgery |
Treatment Approach | Highly diluted natural remedies | Herbal medicines, diet, lifestyle changes | Synthetic drugs, antibiotics, surgical interventions |
Disease Focus | Chronic and lifestyle diseases | Preventive and curative treatments | Acute, chronic, emergency conditions |

The absense of a valid NEET score makes your admission to almost any institution impossible even if they allowed marginally flexible criteria. The admission review process includes NEET test results as its most critical component since it contributes 60-70% to both government
