Hello Sir/Madam, I am a BPharm student of 2nd year. I want to study MBBS course after completing my BPharm course. So, is it possible for me to do this MBBS after my BPharm? Can I eligible for admission? I have studied science in 12th.

Yes, you can take admission in MBBS after getting into medical entrance examinations, on the basis of 12th class. As there is no similarity in B Pharmacy and MBBS course, therefore they don't have interrelation like BTech and diploma course.

Yes, you can do MBBS after completing the B. Pharmacy and some of the colleges provide MBBS at the lowest cost all over India leading Private and Government colleges.

So, first if you crack the entrance exam. If you are qualified with merit seat and do not want to occupy management seat then according to me you can take drop for getting merit seat. If you are qualified with average then you want to occupy management seat.

So you should prepare to hard work for entrance exam.

Yes,obviously you can pursue MBBS after completing your B Pharmacy but you have to qualify the entrance test that is NEET.
Maximum age limit to pursue MBBS is 25 years whereas relaxation in upper age limit is provided to reserved students.

Yes, you can do MBBS after your B. Pharmacy degree. But there are some Institutes, it depends upon which college you choose.
There can be age limitations and also such issues. But if you are really interested in doing MBBS then you should abide the rules of the medical college. On the other hand I have seen students doing MBBS after D. pharmacy.
