Unfortunately, specific cutoff information for the B.Sc. in Medical Lab Technology (MLT) at SVIMS Tirupati for the 2024-2025 academic year is not yet available. Cutoff ranks and scores typically become available after the AP EAPCET exam results are released and the counseling process begins.

Think about what you like to study and what skills you are good at.
If you like lab work, then DMLT course can be better for you.
If you like medicines, then Pharmacy may be right choice.
End of the day, the best choice depend on your interest and future goals. You should read more about both, know your strong points, and see which one match with your dreams.

Yes, after finishing Class 10 or 12, students can join DMLT course.
DMLT course is 2 year Diploma where you learn lab work and how to do medical test and checking.
For eligibility, you need to pass Class 10 or same exam from recognised board with Science subject. Mostly you need 50% marks, but it can be little different in some colleges. So better to check the college rule before applying.

No, DMLT course is not same like a degree.
DMLT is diploma level course, usually after Class 12, but degree is higher study that you get after finishing bachelor program.
Both DMLT and degree in lab tech prepare you for lab jobs, but degree give more deep study, theory, research and also more career chance than diploma.

Yes, students with DMLT course can also try to open and run their own lab, but there are some rules and things to follow.
But remember, starting a medical lab need you to follow government rules and standards. You also need to get license and certificate before you can run the lab.
