    So, straight up—you can’t become a doctor just by doing B Pharma. Pharmacy isn’t the same thing as being a doctor. To actually call yourself a doctor, you need an MBBS, BDS, or an Ayush degree like BAMS, BHMS, or BUMS, plus any other required certifications.

    MBBS is the main route. It is a 4-year UG course (includes 6-month internship). To get in, you need to clear NEET, be at least 17, and have finished Class 12 with Physics, Chemistry, and Biology.
