No, a Clinical Psychologist don't need MBBS degree. Clinical Psychologists and doctors (MBBS) study different stuff.

Doctors go to medical school, do internship and residency, and can treat all kinds of medical problems, even some mental health problems. Clinical Psychologists and Psychiatrists usually work together to help people with mental health problems.

NEET is primarily associated with admissions to medical and dental undergraduate programs, and it is not typically required for admission to Clinical Psychology. It is a field within Psychology, and entrance requirements for psychology programs, including Clinical Psychology, are generally distinct from the NEET.

Admission to Clinical Psychology in India is usually based on merit. However, admission procedures can vary depending on the institution and state.

If you scored 625 marks in the NEET then your All India Rank will be between 50000 to 60000. Because you are a girl from Haryana you can get state quota and females benefits also.
