The duration of NEET PG counselling depends on number of vacant seats after each round. Usually, the counselling process goes on for over two months time. Each round of NEET PG counselling takes around 15-20 days time starting from registration to reporting. Initial rounds takes a bit more time than last rounds. Candidates have to register online and declare choice for college and course for seat allotment. Registration can be done on the official website. A total of 4 rounds of counselling is held for seat allotment. Based on choice declared by candidates, available seats, NEET PG rank, reservation factor etc. seats are allotted to candidates.

500 plus marks is considered a decent score in NEET PG  exam. If a candidate score 535 marks that means his/her rank will be somewhere around 1000-2000. With that score, there is a chance to get admission in government college. Good score also depends on difficulty level of the question paper. If the question paper is difficult then cut off will be low. In 2023-24 session, general category cut off was 291 while the cut off for SC/ST was 257. Overall 500 plus marks will enable you to get admission in good college for PG course.

Yes. NEET PG is hard in comparison to NEET. The reason being NEET PG is postgraduate level exam while NEET is conducted at undergraduate level. Another reason is, there are lesser number of PG seats than MBBS seats for candidates. Managing time for NEET PG preparation for candidates is very difficult task as they have to manage college, internship and preparation all three together. In NEET PG, competition is among best minds who all are doctors.

Subjectwise also NEET PG is tough as candidates have to prepare more than 15 subjects while in NEET only 4 subjects are there. In nutshell, NEET PG is tougher as it tests knowledge of candidates at postgraduate level while NEET is just an entry level of exam for MBBS. 

Students can choose from two-course options for graduate-level (duration – four years) - BSc (Basic) and BSc (Post-Basic), postgraduate level MSc in Nursing (duration – 18 months to three years) and PhD in Nursing (two to three years). The eligibility criteria for the two is mentioned below:

• BSc (Basic)– Candidates must have passed Class 12 with Physics, Chemistry, and Biology and should be medically fit.
• BSc (Post-Basic) –Candidates must have passed Class 12 in PCB (Physics, Chemistry, and Biology). One has to get a certificate in GNM (General Nursing Midwifery) and register him/herself as RNRM (Registered Nurse Registered Midwife) from the State Nurses Registration Council.
• MSc in Nursing -Candidates must have passed BSc Nursing / BSc Hons Nursing / Post Basic BSc Nursing with a minimum of 55 percent aggregate.
• PhD in Nursing -Candidates must have passed MSc Nursing with a minimum of 55% aggregate.

Candidates who qualify NEET PG exam with minimum cutoff marks as decided by NBE will be eligible to participate in the counselling. The qualifying cut off varies as per the category. To participate in NEET PG 2024 counselling, candidates will have to register on the official website, mcc. Nic. In. They also have to fill choice for college and course and lock them in the given deadline. Seat allotment is done based on different factors such as choice declared, availability of seats in particular college and course, NEET PG rank etc.

Dear aspirant, Glad to meet you.

No, you are not eligible for the B.Sc. Nursing is a 4 year undergraduate course that train nurses to ACT critically and think clear in critical situations while taking care of the patient. The eligibility for the course is: the candidate must have completed +2 education with Physics Chemistry and Biology.

But there is course called ANM (Auxiliary Nursing Midwifery), anyone who has passed 12th with any stream is eligible for this course. It is Diploma course which focuses on the health care od different individuals. Hope it helps.

No, class 12 or equivalent education qualifications are required for most Nursing courses, and certain subjects, like Physics, Chemistry, and Biology, are a must to be eligible for the courses.
But there are some Diploma courses in nursing like Auxiliary Nurse Midwifery (ANM) which one can pursue after Class 10.
Auxiliary Nurse Midwifery (ANM) is a one-year Diploma course in basic health care and midwifery nursing and concerns the study of the provision of basic health care, maternal care, and midwifery skills. This is an undergraduate level course for applicants who have passed their Class 10 and are now looking forward to a career in nursing. ANM graduates primarily work in primary health care settings, assisting a registered nurse with providing essential nursing care.

Yes, it's feasible. However, having studied commerce in Class 12 limits eligibility to pursue only one Nursing course: ANM (Auxiliary Nursing Midwifery). Presently, there has been a government decision to eliminate the GNM course. 

While these options are considered outdated in comparison to BSc Nursing, individuals with a Commerce background are not eligible for pursuing a BSc in Nursing.
