With a CUET score of 400, your chances of admission in B.Pharm colleges depend on the cut-offs, category, and state quota. Generally, private and some deemed universities keep seats open till August, so you may still get admission. Government colleges usually close earlier with higher cut-offs, but private and semi-government institutions often accept CUET scores or conduct spot/management rounds. So yes, you can still secure admission in private B.Pharm colleges with 400 marks in August through direct counseling or spot admission.

Yes, BSc Physiotherapy is often categorized under paramedical courses, as it is part of allied health sciences. It trains professionals who support medical doctors in diagnosing, treating, and rehabilitating patients.
However, physiotherapists hold a distinct professional identity and are not just assistants. They play an independent role in patient care, rehabilitation, and recovery, making it both paramedical and an essential healthcare field on its own.

Physiotherapy focuses on improving movement, strength, and physical function after injuries, surgeries, or illnesses. It deals with the rehabilitation of muscles, bones, and nerves through exercises and manual therapy.
Occupational Therapy, on the other hand, emphasizes helping patients perform daily activities like dressing, eating, or working, especially after trauma, disability, or developmental issues. While both overlap, physiotherapy is body-function oriented, and occupational therapy is life-function oriented.

The MBBS. of Optometry is a healthcare course but not a full-fledged medical degree like MBBS. It is a paramedical programme focusing on eye care, diagnosis of vision problems, and prescription of corrective lenses.
Though optometrists are not doctors, they play a vital role in preventing blindness and improving eye health. Their work is often complementary to ophthalmologists and other healthcare professionals.
