Alternative Medicine

In comparison to a private MBBS attending a government BHMS college is preferable. This is because of the following factors:
1. You may have to pay a hefty price for the private MBBS programme; some colleges charge fees for this programme that total in the crores. A government college's BHM tuition is typically under Rs. 6 Lacs and occasionally thousands of rupees.
2. For any course, a government college is more valuable than a private college.
3. The government is promoting the study of homeopathy, making it easier to find employment after earning this degree.
4. You need to pursue an MD or MS to become a doctor; you cannot find a job easily after receiving an MBBS. As a result, you need to wait longer than BHMS doctors to begin your career. The choice is ultimately yours if becoming a neurosurgeon or other MBBS doctor has always been your dream. You won't be content with a BHMS degree in this situation. To fulfill your dream, you can choose a private MBBS over a government BHMS.

The BHMS is better because it is for homeopathic doctors, unlike the paramedical BPT course.
1. The Bachelor of Homeopathic Medicine and Surgery BHMS covers the Science of homeopathy and its applications, according to the course syllabus. In BPT you study physiology, electrotherapy, exercise therapy, and related courses.
2. The Bachelor of Physiotherapy BPT is less expensive than the BHMS in terms of tuition. In government colleges, the cost of a BHM programme can reach Rs. 10 lacs, whereas the cost of a BPT can range from Rs. 60,000 to Rs. 6 lacs.
3. If you hold a BHMS degree, you are eligible to work as a homeopathic doctor, government medical official, or health consultant. With a BPT degree, you can work as a physiotherapist in hospitals, as a sports physiotherapist, as a fitness instructor, etc.
4. A BHMS graduate can expect to make around Rs. 4.2 lacs as their starting salary. A BPT degree could earn you around Rs. 2.25 Lacs per year. Some occupations, such as sports physiotherapy, can pay up to Rs. 4 lacs per year.

Both are equally good medical courses. To assist you in choosing which is better for you, here is a brief comparison:
1. Coursework: The students study homeopathic Science and its applications in the Bachelor of Homeopathic Medicine and Surgery BHMS programme. You study pathology, human anatomy, and other clinical aspects of medicine in the MBBS programme.
2. Fees: The fees for the BHMS are comparably lower than the MBBS fee. The cost of the MBBS programme can even exceed 15 lacs in government colleges, while the cost of the BHMS programme can exceed 6 lacs.
3. Job Role: A BHMS qualifies you for positions as a homeopathic doctor, government medical officer, or health consultant. In order to practice medicine, including surgery, in private hospitals and clinics, you must have a master's degree. However, after receiving your MBBS you can apply for government medical officer positions, such as those in UPSC CMS.
4. Pay: An MBBS degree can earn you up to Rs. 1 Lacs per month, whereas a BHMS degree can net you an average salary of about Rs. 35,000 per month. To get either of these degrees, you have to appear in the NEET UG exam; therefore, you can decide as per your interest.
