No, NEET is not required for Pharmacy courses in India.

NEET is primarily required for admission to undergraduate medical (MBBS), dental (BDS), and some other allied health science courses in India.

Some Pharmacy colleges or universities may conduct their entrance exams for admission, while others may admit students based on their performance in qualifying examinations such as Class 12 board exams or state-level entrance tests specific to Pharmacy courses.
