Every student in this world loves to become a doctor one day and puts efforts to achieve the goal. But in the rat race many may not be able to cross the first obstacle only: the NEET-UG entrance exam. Nearly 60% of the students get filtered through the NEET exam and remaining lucky ones will make it to counselling.
The NEET exam is the first obstacle that many students fail to cross. The NEET-UG exam is a national level entrance exam for getting admission to medical seats in India and abroad. Unless the students qualify the NEET-UG exam, they will not be able to join the MBBS course.
The students can become doctors by two modes, one is through regular MBBS degree and another is through BAMS degree.
Let’s try to understand both the courses in detail
MBBS: Overview
The Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery – MBBS is a 5.5-years undergraduate course where the students are trained on medical and surgical treatments.
The candidates have to pass the NEET-UG exam to get admission to the MBBS course in India and abroad.
The MBBS course has been one of the most desired courses among the student fraternity across the globe.
Each year millions of students dream to join MBBS and become doctors to earn handsome salaries
The aspirants will fall into the rat race called MBBS, where high level of competition prevails for the limited number seats
The majority of MBBS aspirants feel disheartened if they fail to survive in the MBBS competition and feel depressed
These depressed MBBS aspirants will fail to explore other profitable career paths that are alternative to MBBS and repent in the later state
The fees structure for MBBS is extremely high and the period for settlement in career takes longer years
The BAMS course is one of the most underrated courses that is often overlooked by many students
They fail to understand the potentiality of the BAMS course in the race to become MBBS doctors
The BAMS is one of the most profitable careers that will fetch you good salaries and you will be bombarded with unlimited career avenues available for the Ayurvedic Doctor
The BAMS course also prepares the students with the basic education and knowledge in Ayurvedic Science and its application for different health studies and health problems caused by the people.
The BAMS course aims to provide professional excellence in Ayurveda through practical training to become an efficient practitioner, teacher, researcher and competent Ayurvedic Physician and Surgeon.
The BAMS course is comparatively cheaper and period of settlement is way lesser when compared to MBBS, the BAMS students will settle in career very early when compared to students with MBBS degree

Which is the best? MBBS or BAMS courses
It is very difficult to tell which is better among the MBBS and BAMS courses. Both the courses are equally competitive and both will fetch good earnings. The MBBS doctor practices the modern medical system or commonly called as allopathic medication treatments. While the BAMS doctors will follow the 1000 years old Indian Ayurvedic Medical System that has been proved effective and better than allopathic medicine in many instances. Both are doctors at the end of day, it is the way which they practice and believe.
The choice totally depends upon the candidates, if he/she is interested to become a normal physician and practice allopathic medicine, then he/she can go for MBBS. If the candidates believe in the Indian Medical System, then BAMS course is the best bet for them
