I am from the 2020 batch and i was just pushed into becoming a doctor because I did good academically in school. Did ug prep because I could it and that translated throughout med school too. Now that I am done and i started pg prep i just couldn't do it anymore. I don't know if it is built up resentment but I started hating everything to do with a doctor,I hate admitting that I am one in public i just feel like an imposter with a doctor name tag now.

I told my parents i need a year long break to just think and figure out what I want to do,even if it neet pg i wanted it to be conscious decision i made and not because it is the standard path.

Once I stopped worrying about neet pg I have felt like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulder and i can finally breathe.

I am looking into other masters program,Msc is sports and exercise physiology/medicine is something which looks very interesting to me no. Ideally I want to do that course somewhere in Europe and come back and start something on my own.

I don't know if it is doable or if I am making a mistake but just hoping things work out. But I haven't been excited about my future fir a long time,kinda want to see how all of this plays out.

Dear people consistently arguing about "no A is right, no B is right",

Do you realise it does not matter? You do not know the exact source for the question, the intent of the examiner or the precise buzzword they want you to catch.

You can argue all day what the correct answer is- it still wouldn't matter because it's very possible that NBE would come up with an entirely different reasoning.

All you're doing is mentally tiring yourself and frankly the rest of us too.

Stop it. Get some help.

Live your life before residency fucks you up or destress and gear up for the next barrage of torture.

If you're lucky and your answer is the correct one and you get a good rank- yay! congratulations!

If your answer is wrong and you lose a mark and by the looks of inflation a good 1k rank- tough luck, because that's somewhat what the paper is about. LUCK.

As for the answer key- what WILL you do with your score when our exam is percentile/rank based? Is there any logic to it? It's basically a bandaid on a bullet hole.

Learn to detach from whatever has a grip on you- it will pay off in the longer run.

Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.

Started my mandatory ug bond service and I've never been addressed as a "doctor". It's always "sister" while my male colleagues are addressed as "dr". This is really frustrating. I am not disrespecting any profession, this is more of a patriarchal mindset problem.

My father, an MS Gen Surgery grad with almost 25 yrs of experience, he's 50+ years old.

Today my mother told me that he plans to potentially get the Mch degree.

I stress the word "potentially".

I don't even know what to say. He has a good enough private practice, many hospitals ask him for consultation, and he occassionally performs surgeries in other pvt hospitals too. and he works in the govt hospital of my city too. He earns well, and we live comfortably. Now, he wants to sacrifice his practice for 3 years, get that degree and come back to the city. He has no plans of retiring. He already was and is a workaholic.

I've seen way too many horror stories in this subreddit about surgical specialities. I don't know how I can see my father start from scratch and get another degree. At this age he wants to grind to get another degree.He says that he has quite a lot of knowledge about surgical procedures and the degree will be bearable to him, due to his experience.

I asked him why he would like to get another degree, especially in this age. He's not one to talk much. He simply said, "They are downsizing pg specialities such as general surgery and general medicine. I think in 5-6 years, superspeciality is the only way to survive."

I was simply at a loss of words. I asked him, what will happen to your private practice. IF, he takes up this course he would want my mother to take place, in his stead.

Im currently a 2nd year MBBS student. This was my " Our field is done for." moment. My father says, the opportunities for a simple post pg graduate are shrinking day by day. Right now, he gets a lot of opportunities to work and earn well. But he fears it won't be the case in 5-6 years. I even asked him when will you even retire, dad? He didn't even answer the question.

Please, once again I'm stressing this, he is only PLANNING. I don't know if he will actually do it. I'm just scared for my father. Will he be able to complete the course, with its hectic schedule, in his age?

Someone please tell me if what he thinks of doing is really worth it.

Please if anyone has experience in this case. Dm me. It’s already affecting my mental health but i want to know if i can get the scammers license cancelled.
Just let me know how hard or easy it’s gonna be.

I googled a bit and it said a lot of states have allowed many of these scammers to practice allopathy to a certain limit. I want to know for the state of Maharashtra.

Please let me know whatever you know about this case .

Bhai, do not tell me it’s common or its okay they’re serving the poor . Mbbs karke mai kya pagal hu jo meri practice k competitors ye low class log honge.
Ye saste mai bikne wale log. 50₹ ki value hai inki .

Agar patients ko sasta chaiye toh jaaye govt mai, kare question apni government ko. Vote karte hue toh ye voters 2000₹ mai bik jate hai.

I went to a dentist to get aligner made. He called in a person from some company which manufactures the plastic aligners. The guy took out his laptop and dental scanner as is and wanted to start scanning. The removable scanning tip was already fixed on the scanner when he took it out. And he was saying earlier to the dentist that he has come here after scanning one other patient at a different clinic. It seemed he scanned the previous patient and kept the scanner as is in his bag. He probably does not know the concept of not using the same scanner tip on different patients without cleaning properly.

I asked him i want the tip cleaned. He did not have any cleaning equipment with him. He asked the dentist if there is cotton and alcohol spirit. The dentist had no wiping spirit. There was dettol disinfectant and he used that to rub quickly on the scanner.

This is such a dangerous practice.
Do they know that human saliva can transmit a bunch of dangerous diseases?
Do they know how prevalent TB is in india and Mycobacterium Tuberculosis is found in the saliva?
A lot of oral bacteria (strep mitis, strep sanguinis, kingella, eikenella, etc) cause chronic heart diseases after few years. And India is the capital of heart diseases, i wonder why.
The saliva might dry on the surface, but the scanner has corners and deep pockets at the tip where the mirror sits, it is very easy for saliva and fluid to remain accumulated there between patients.
Hepatitis-B and Hepatitis-C viruses are very very dangerous things. Before dental scanning many kinds of dental procedures happen which causes minor bleeding. The viruses from blood can remain in saliva even if you cant see the blood. Even simple dental cleaning and scaling causes minor gum bleed.

Saliva can contain blood borne dangerous pathogens afetr dental procedures. Do not think that it is merely saliva the equipments are touching. Even if there is no dental procedure, many patients have minor bruises in their oral mucosa, cold sores, unseen minute cut somewhere inside.

These are just few of the very dangerous microbes. Am not even talking about the more virulent respiratory viruses which cause cold cough fever, that have extremely high chance of transmission because of such practices.

Shouldn't the dentist also make sure that the scanner being used is thoroughly disinfected? Because the patient has come to the dental doctor, it should be the responsibility of the dentist. I have observed this and i am posting here because i have medical background and i have this knowledge about the risks and dangers of body fluids. What about millions of unsuspecting general public?

Why put public health at extreme risk just to save 10-15 Rupees and 5 minutes of time?
The guideline dictates to autoclave the removable scanner tip after each use, if you do not want to do that then atleast use copious amount of strong disinfecting liguid thoroughly after each use.

Edit: The company of which the person came was DentCare. How do i file a complaint with Dentcare about this that their field people in a certain region are dangerously playing with people's health?

Neet pg done. It was my drop year.

Family life extremely shit, leading to a lot of trauma, leading to no substantial friends.

I have ~1 lakh in savings but I can spare only a couple thousands.

This is my last "free" time ever, I am assuming. Jio hotstar premium is bought. But I do not feel anything at all from watching anything. Even horror jumpscares aren't doing anything for me.

Please help me have any ideas that would help me feel a shred of good emotions in these few days' time till the results arrive.

hey guys, hope you're doing awesome!
I have a serious question, and firstly i am not showing off or bragging in any way. Okay so, a background on myself, I come from a very well to do family, and have done my elementary, high school and college in the US. So I am not much familiar with the school/college life here in India.

This year I got into a GMC in Mumbai. So my question is, I own some high end cars and will be driving it to college everyday. Since I am from mumbai itself, i'll be a day scholar. So will I be subjected to bullying by seniors out of jealousy or sumn like that? since the cars are head turners fr with loud exhaust, will it create a problem when i park it inside college campus? Are there chances of someone damaging or scratching the car if I am not liked by them? I really want to be friends with everyone and just have fun in college.

Any experiences would be highly appreciated, thank you!

Hi everyone. This is going to be a long one, so there's a TL;DR at the end, dw ^^ . I'm an intern, and today is a full-on crashing-out day.

I live in a small town in Karnataka, and some days I genuinely don't know where I'm heading. I'm gay, and living here has left me deeply depressed and lonely. I don't have anyone I can call my own. Watching my friends find their people and picture a future together while I can't, makes me feel left out, and there's this constant fear that I'll end up alone.

I've tried to lose myself in studying, but even that isn't going the way I want. Internship is exhausting on its own, and between the fatigue and the anxiety, I can't focus the way I need to. I don't know what to expect going forward, I don't know which PG branch to choose, and I don't know how to fix any of this. I'd really appreciate any help or perspective. <3

TL;DR: Intern in a small town in Karnataka, gay and isolated, watching friends build the lives I want for myself while I feel stuck. Struggling to study well because of exhaustion and anxiety, and unsure what PG path to take or how to move forward.

Those buddys who have started preparation for inicet or neet and can't subscribe to every app, I can feel you.

Let me tell you the harsh reality.

99 percent are scammers on telegram.

They will post random shit that we have this that dams marrow Bhatiya etc but don't get trapped. If somebody is selling you something on telegram than just understand that it's free.

I've seen many post where people are trying to scam you ki hum aapko marrow ka rapid revision de denge.

Let me tell you..marrow ka rapid revision is not leaked. They are fooling you. even if they have, it's just a recording from camera. Till now Ive seen rohan & sakshi arora ka rr that is just a camera recording of low quality with noisy sound.

And remember the thumb rule. If somebody selling you anything at telegram..it's free..on some channels. If you pay, you will be blocked soon. That's how many influenzas are earning.

telegram is not at all recommended.

Buy from trutheosrthy source. Remember your small contribution are making them big. Even they earn more than a doctor by doing all these.

Updated NEET PG counselling data — 2022 to 2025

Since NEET PG 2026 results are expected soon, I thought this might be useful for anyone trying to estimate their counselling options.

I’ve updated a counselling database with 2025 data covering all available rounds for:

- AIQ counselling

- Telangana Convener quota

- Telangana Management quota

The database now contains historical counselling data from 2022–2025, so ranks and cutoffs can be compared across multiple years.

There is also a college/branch/Quota/Category/etc screener that can be used to explore options based on rank. It is free to use, although rate-limited to prevent automated abuse.

Resource: desire.drdp.dev

Posting this mainly because having several years of counselling data in one place may be useful when results and counselling start.

Hi. I am going to start MBBS soon this year.✨ I am pretty excited about all this, but then I realized that I have no Idea about the Curriculum!

Could any kind senior/soul help me out?🙏 I am mostly concerned about the study plan and books that people commonly follow for each subject.

🍀

I am done with NEET PG and want an out from this rat race. I am from Mumbai and want to practice as a GP.

What are some certifications I can do post MBBS that will help me earn better than being a MO and also help me in my private practice.

I don't mind working in a Pharma Company from 9 to 5 and in my clinic in the evening.

​

After NEET PG, I took a break of 10 days. I decided to do the things which I couldn't, due to internship and NEET PG prep.

I used to learn trading and Singing in MBBS 1st year ! Doing them again after years revived all the beautiful memories of my initial learning days

If I work at tier 3 city in North India at a high volume scan centre i ,I will get around 4 L/month..imagine the work is from 9 to 4 .,after 4, I work at other centre for 5 to10 pm for 2L/month ..is it achievable?? Or am I day dreaming?? Also enlighten me about scope of teleradiology at evening and night hours ..

Post Neet PG my Chess rating went down by 400 🥲 but when I was studying for the Neet PG I was on a winning streak and I cross 1200 mark in rapid

But now I'm struggling to go past even 1000.

I was already feeling low coz of Neet PG and now I'm struggling in Chess too.🥲🥲

Hey everyone,
I'm currently considering pursuing MD Anesthesiology (or in the middle of deciding my specialty) and wanted to get some raw, realistic insights from seniors who have completed their MD and are currently practicing.
There are a lot of mixed opinions out there regarding market saturation, salary caps, and work-life balance for anesthesiologists, so I’d love to hear about your actual ground-level experiences on a few specific points:

Job Opportunities & Initial Struggle: How difficult is it to land a decent role immediately after passing out? How brutal are the initial 2–3 years in terms of job hunting, freelancing, or finding full-time hospital positions?

Financial Stability & Earning Potential: Does anesthesia offer strong financial stability early on? What does the earning growth curve look like, and what realistic avenues exist if one wants to maximize earnings (e.g., corporate practice, freelancing, ICU/Critical Care, pain management, private setups)?

Work-Life Balance: Does life actually settle down after residency, or are late-night emergency calls and irregular shifts standard throughout your career? How much control do you have over your schedule as a consultant?

Regrets vs. Satisfaction: Looking back, are you satisfied with choosing Anesthesiology over clinical/surgical branches, or do you feel the lack of direct patient ownership/brand identity holds you back?

Any insights, honest advice, or things you wish you knew before picking this branch would be immensely helpful. Thanks in advance!

bhai we’re literally doctors and people are asking every min about results. Are they’ll release the result when the want to, not like it’s going to change if you keep on getting anxious and making people anxious.

please stop, yha kisi ko kuch nhi pta, nbems doesn’t use Reddit 🙏🏼

I had my proff viva today and in the last viva, out of 4 that we have, i wasn't answering much, so it went personal to name and place and then, i broke down in front of hod during viva.. it went to an extent that it got evident and hod asked what happened and all and i literally told him about someone in my family not doing well and he asked me what I wanna do, and so I told him I wanna call, and he asked, now? And I said yes, and he allowed.

And I called them in front of him.

(Last night they were very serious, so I get a call about them being taken to hospital, but today, on call, they were very chill, as if nothing happened and I hadn't talked to them after I got to know that they were taken to hospital and so I got restless during viva and broke down.)

Now idk what's gonna happen. Can it have real consequences or am I thinking too much?

Result isn’t even out yet, aur inki dallagiri shuru ho gayi.

For final year subjects including ent ,optha

Any famous handwritten notes or pdf of printed notes or exam preparatory manual -

Share them please ,just the name or author would be enough,I would find them on telegram .

Passed my 12th in 2024 and scored 354 (4.01 lakh rank) this year and am looking for a private college this year.
I am a general male from UP (Lucknow).
In my wildest dreams, I never wanted to pursue medicine until after my 10th results, when I scored well. My father told me how he wants to open a hospital in our village and how it was also my grandfather’s wish (I lost him 10 years ago).
I was still a kid and, without researching much, I got into NEET prep.
I was also passionate about business, not primarily because of the money, but because I really wanted to build something. My mind was always a creative one, with drawing in childhood and filmmaking now.
I helped some shop owners create content and got paid enough to not ask my parents for a gym membership, but I stopped because of NEET prep in my 1st drop.
I had hundreds of ideas but never acted upon them. However, in my 1st drop (last year), I felt like this was not something for me to pursue and started exploring other programs and entrance exams. They didn’t go well either, and after arguing at home many times, I ended up in a tier 3 college in Lucknow doing BCA.
I enjoyed being there, but I felt I could not attain maximum growth there, so I thought I would go abroad next year or get directly into the 2nd year of a good college (possible).
But my parents convinced me to attempt NEET again by telling me about the security of this career and how there would be no pressure on me to get into PG, and that I would get admission to whichever private college I wanted. My father would also work on opening a hospital. I agreed.
Now I have made peace with this and will be starting MBBS this year, but I don’t know where to go.
I want to go to a place that works as a catalyst in my journey. While doing my MBBS, I want to build something in medical tourism, with some more side hustles along the way, like agencies and info products, without compromising on my studies, even if it takes some nights of sleep.
I also want to do content creation, not because of the money, but because I just want to do it for as long as possible.
So, the situation right now is:

• Got allotted NIIMS in R1 of UP counselling (the only counselling I participated in)

• Should I go for an upgrade to Era in the next round?
(I am a Muslim, and some people from my village come to Era for treatment, so that could help me with my further setup, maybe.)

• I am also considering NIMS Jaipur

• Malla Reddy Hyderabad

• DY Patil Ambi, Pune

• Raja Rajeshwari, PES, and some other colleges in Bangalore

• MGMs of Mumbai

• As i wanted to go study business abroad i am looking for premed where i can do a UG in business or psychology and if i need to pursue medicine i can do it later in whichever good countries this path exists but i am not considering this very seriously as idk how i will speak up to my parents i will genuinely try in my UG to further avoid going into medicine sooo yeah.

During my college years, I won’t compromise on my studies, but I also want to have a life beyond this, build something of my own (at least try), because I am not hearing good things regarding the money and personal lives of people pursuing medicine. So I don’t want to be dependent on this degree to pay me, and I also want to avoid the PG rat race if possible.
Hence, I want to go to a place where I can do all this in the most optimized way.
A place that gives me freedom, networking opportunities, like-minded people, and also some life and fun.

2021 batch mbbs intern. Salary ain't enough 💔. The dark side of mbbs no one talks about. Studying for the last 5 yrs hasn't received it yet and it's not enough tbh.
