    Hello, Psychologists and psychiatrists are two distinct professions that address issues on various levels. After MBBS the former is a PG in medicine. Later, one might pursue a B.A. Or M.A. With psychology as a major. To become a psychiatrist, you must first pass the NEET entrance exam, receive admission, graduate from the MBBS programme as a doctor, and then pass the NEET PG entrance exam to enrol in this specialty programme. However, you can enrol in a B.A. Programme with psychology as your major subject if you want to become a psychologist. I wish you well.

    Hello, Psychitrist and psychologist are two different aspects that deal with problems at different levels. Former is PG in Medical after MBBS. Later is doing a B.A. Or an M.A. with psychology as a major subject. If you want to be a psychiatrist then you need to clear NEET get admission, become a doctor by passing MBBS and then again clear NEET PG and take admission in this specialist course. However if you desire to become psychologist, you can take admission in B.A. With psychology as major subject. Best wishes to you.

Hi...

it is quiet difficult to get admission for M.Sc sports psychology for students from non-sports background but not impossible so a personal sports background can provide useful insight, it is not a mandatory prerequisite for admission. The focus is more on your foundational knowledge of psychology and relevant practical or academic experience that prepares you for the rigorous demands of a master's program in this specialized field.
