No, you can't get admission to JIPMER Puducherry's B.Sc. in Medical Laboratory Technology with a score of 140 in NEET. As after seeing the trend in medical stream and considering the current competition in NEET one should score more than 650 in NEET to get admission in B.Sc in  medical laboratory technology at JIPMER  Puducherry.

In West Bengal, a B.Sc nurse generally has a higher pay than a B.Sc MLT graduate, both in the government and private sectors, as nursing positions often offer a slightly higher salary scale and more career progression opportunities compared to Medical Laboratory Technician roles. B.Sc MLT has average salary of around INR 10,000 to 4 Lakhs per annum.

Choosing between pursuing your B.Sc. or a change to a B.Voc in Medical Lab Technology (MLT) is subject to your professional aspirations. B.Voc in MLT targets practical skills and employment-focused training in medical laboratory technology. Admissions for B.Voc are usually based on a 10+2 Science background. As you are in the third year of B.Sc, evaluate if the practical orientation of B.Voc is more in line with your goals compared to the theoretical intensity of B.Sc. Keep in mind that B.Voc MLT has on-the-job training and internships, which could result in faster placement.
