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 day best choice depend on your interest and future goals. You should read more about both, know your strong points and also 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 college rule before applying.
