NO, you don't need to be a resident of Maharashtra to obtain a B.Sc. degree from AFMC (Armed Forces Medical College). AFMC selection is based on your performance in the National Eligibility Entrance Test (NEET) and other eligibility criteria set by the institute, and not your residency.
- AFMC B.Sc.: AFMC doesn't offer a traditional B.Sc. program. They offer MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery) and B.Sc. (Nursing) programs.
- Admission Criteria: Admission to both programs is based on NEET score followed by an interview and medical examination conducted by AFMC
