BPT course is all about nonsurgical treatments like physical therapy and pain management while MBBS is purely a medical degree that is important for one to become a doctor, diagnose diseases, prescribe medication and perform critical surgeries.
MBBS has a wide scope and is more demanding than the short term BPT course that can become a doorway for jobs in hospitals, rehabilitation centers, etc. If you're interested in general medical practice MBBS can be a good fit as opposed to BPT which is more suited for direct patient interaction and nonsurgical treatments.

Well, it's actually not. Though it will grant a title of “Doctor” (Dr.) in a professional capacity, it's not some traditional medical doctor's degree like MBBS. BPT means a Bachelor of Physiotherapy, who specializes in rehabilitation, physical therapy, and pain management without prescribing medicines or performing surgeries.
Once you complete this course and obtain a license from the respective state council, you can use the prefix “Dr.” before your name.

Yes, NEET is mandatory for Indian students seeking admission to MBBS programs in Russia. The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) is a mandatory entrance exam for medical courses in India, and it's also recognised by many foreign universities, including those in Russia. Even though other standardised tests like English proficiency tests have been waived from the necessary requirements of MBBS in Russia, NEET continues to remain one of the essential exams for the same.

Yes, a Pharm D course graduate can open a medical store, as long as they fulfill the required legal and regulatory obligations. In India, a pharmacy or medical store requires a pharmacy license from the state drug control authority.
Pharm D course graduates are suitable candidates to run such shops because of their education in medication management, drug therapy, and patient care.
However, they must still abide by the regulations in relation to selling medicines and other patient care services in that, keep records, documentation and abide by local pharmacy laws.
