No, a homeopathy course is not equal to an MBBS degree. MBBS is a traditional medical degree focused on allopathic medicine, which involves the use of conventional treatments, surgeries, and pharmaceuticals. On the other hand, a Homeopathy course focuses on homeopathic medicine, which is based on using highly diluted substances to stimulate the body's natural healing processes.Candidates can check the table below to see the comparison between the two courses.ParticularsHomeopathicMBBS Course DetailsMBBS Course LevelUG, PG and DiplomaeUndergraduateMBBS Course Duration 2-3 years5 years + 6 months internshipMBBS Course Admission ProcessEntrance-Based/Merit-BasedEntrance-BasedMBBS Course Eligibility CriteriaClass 12 in the Science stream with Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and English.Class 12 in the Science stream with  Physics, Chemistry, Biology/Biotechnology (which shall include practical tests in these subjects) and Mathematics subjects and be over 17 years of age.Entrance Test for MBBSUG - NEETPG - AIAPGET and NEET PGNEETMBBS FeesINR 10, 000 - INR 11 Lakh Government: INR 10,000 - INR 50,000 per yearPrivate: INR 3 Lakh - INR 25 Lakh per year  Top Colleges for MBBS CourseDr D.Y.

Yes, NTA announced that there was one question in the NEET 2024 question paper, which had two correct answer options. Hence, any candidate who had attempted that question and marked either of the answer options, have been given full marks. According to NTA, this year only one NEET answer key challenge was received which was validated. Based on the bonus marking, 44 candidates' scores turned out to be 720 out of 720, leading them to secure AIR 1.  However, during the Supreme Court hearing on NEET 2024 petitions, the apex court asked IIT Delhi professor's opinion on this question, and it was opined that the question had only one correct answer option. Accordingly, the bonus marks had to be revoked and candidates who marked any other option apart from the correct one, faced negative marking of one mark. Accordingly, NTA released the revised final NEET 2024 answer keys on July 26, 2024.
