MBBS

Hi Sahib, both are good options. All depends your areas of interest. I do agree that MBBS takes 6 years to complete and much hard work is needed, but my friend in today's scenario it's really tough to get anything without hard work.
After B.Pharmacy as well, you have to do M. Pharmacy for better career as only B. Pharm will have very less opportunities. So again the span will remain 6 years and there is no as such thing like less hard work in Pharmacy.
Let me give a best example:
After MBBS you can enter Pharmacovigilance field as Drug Safety Physician with good growth and salary packages.
After M. Pharm, you will get entry as Drug Safet Associate with package less then Drug Safety Physician.
I hope this will help you to decide and if not i am available to answer any of your further queries.

Statement of purpose

Hi,
Please note that the American universities do not award or recognize the MBBS.
In the US medical studies are only done at the graduate level. Undergraduate students complete BS degrees in chemistry, biochemsitry, biology or other science related fields, then take a difficult examination, the MCAT, and apply for admission to Medical schools that require four years of graduate study and award the MD or DO degree.
Admission to medical school is very competitive - you must have a 3.6 / 4.0 or better average in a series of difficult science courses to be admitted.
Also there are very few scholarships for medical students, so most students must pay the fees, which can be $50,000 USD per year or more for each of the four years.
Besides US you may consider pursuing MBBS from:
- Russia.
- China.
- Ukraine.
