No, one cannot become a surgeon without MBBS.

Becoming a surgeon typically requires completing a medical degree, which is commonly an MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery) or an equivalent degree recognised in the respective country. The MBBS degree is the foundation of medical education and provides the necessary knowledge and training to pursue a career in various medical fields, including surgery.

Given that SC category cutoffs are typically lower, you may be able to secure an MBBS seat at ESIC Medical College if your NEET 2024 score is 423 and you fall into that group. The precise deadline, though, may change every year. For more exact information, it's best to examine the most recent cutoff trends or get in touch with the college.

You may be able to gain admission to a government MBBS college if you fall into the OBC category and have a NEET score of 503, but this will depend on the state in which you are applying. In general, especially for more well-known states, the cutoff scores for government medical colleges can be rather high. In states with lower cutoffs or in certain private medical colleges subject to government quotas, your score may be competitive. To determine your chances more precisely, it is imperative that you review the specific cutoff patterns for various states and universities.

It would be difficult to get a B Category seat at a private medical college in Andhra Pradesh if you scored 275 on the NEET 2024 and you are an OBC. There is fierce rivalry for B Category seats, which are normally filled on the basis of merit. However, admission prospects are contingent upon seat availability, college-specific cutoffs, and the year-end cutoffs. In addition to looking into private colleges where you would have a greater chance of getting a seat under management quota, it is advisable to take part in the state counselling procedure.

Depending on the state's cutoff trends, you stand a good possibility of obtaining an MBBS seat through the home state quota with a NEET score of 599, especially at government medical colleges. In many government and private medical institutes, you are likely to meet the cutoff in states like West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, and Maharashtra. Your prospects are also better for the All India Quota (AIQ), although the cutoffs are usually higher and the competition is fiercer. It is necessary to engage in the state and AIQ counselling processes.

Yes, one can do an MBBS after M Pharmacy. 

However, having an M Pharmacy (Masters in Pharmacy) may not directly qualify one for MBBS admission in India, as the standard pathway is through the pre-medical undergraduate coursework. 

The typical pathway to pursue an MBBS in India involves completing a Class 12 education with Physics, Chemistry, and Biology as the main subjects, followed by the NEET-UG for admission to undergraduate medical programs.
