2) What r the job prospects in India after I complete my PhD in USA. Will I be paid very well

hi,

1. once u done with your MBBS you can directly apply for Ph.d,no masters degree required for that.but since you are doing MD Pharmacology here in india, You can get priority to choose among top colleges in US ,in this college preferences MBBS students may have to compromise.
anyway your chances are quite good. so dont worry.

2. as per my knowledge, while pursuing Ph.d in US you will get good stipend .After completing,if you want to settle in US you will get a decent job as the pharmaceutical markets are good over there. If you want to come back to India you can join any pharmaceutical company here and start working.experience and knowledge will not keep you far from a good payscale.

Regards

what sort of resarch work experience do i require to apply for phd in usa
