MBBS

Completing Ayurveda courses can offer several benefits to an MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery) doctor, including:

• Holistic Approach: By integrating Ayurvedic principles into their practice, MBBS doctors can broaden their understanding of health and wellness, addressing not only the physical aspects but also the mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being of their patients.

• Complementary Medicine: MBBS doctors who know about Ayurveda can incorporate Ayurvedic therapies, herbal medicines, dietary recommendations, and lifestyle modifications into their practice, providing more comprehensive care to their patients.

• Personalized Medicine: MBBS doctors who are trained in Ayurveda can tailor treatment plans to suit the specific needs, preferences, and constitution of each patient, leading to more effective outcomes and patient satisfaction.

• Preventive Healthcare: MBBS doctors with Ayurvedic training can educate their patients about healthy lifestyle practices, dietary habits, stress management techniques, and seasonal routines to promote wellness and prevent the onset of diseases.

• Expanded Treatment Options: MBBS doctors who are proficient in Ayurveda can expand their repertoire of treatment options, offering patients a diverse range of approaches to address their health concerns.

The SC category rank is 528,489, and as a female, getting admission to a government college for MBBS, BAMS, or BDS is quite not easy. In government colleges, the seats are few, and cutoffs always keep on being much lower compared to your rank.

However, some options which you may consider are:

1. State Quotas: Among some states, the cutoffs vary, and there could be an opportunity in a less competitive state.
Private Colleges: Private colleges, where cutoffs for the SC category candidate might be marginally higher too, should be considered.

3. BAMS/BDS: These courses have lower cutoffs than MBBS, so you may get a better opportunity here.

4. Deemed Universities/Management Quota: Offers seats on higher ranks where fees might be on the higher side.

No, MBBS is not a requirement for becoming a chiropractor. Chiropractic is a specialised professional field that calls for extensive preparation over many years. The applicant must have earned a Bachelor's degree from an accredited university in order to enrol in a chiropractic programme. A candidate may choose to study a chiropractic course through a 4-year doctoral curriculum or a 5-year integrated plan that comprises a 3-year undergraduate degree and a 2-year post-graduate programme. However, students must have passed their Class 12 board exam including PCB (Physics, Chemistry, and Biology) in order to pursue a chiropractic course. They must study the same Science courses in the undergraduate programme in addition to English and Social Science.  A candidate can, however, take a chiropractor course after earning an MBBS if they chose to change their career and become chiropractors.
