Re: Changing from Engineering to Medicine?

hello dear,
it seems practically impossible going for medicals after engineering........

it is very true that you can go for 12th again with biology from any open schools ........but when you apply for the competitive exams for medical exams you will be shortlisted on the basis of age limit .........

the minimum age limit for pmt is 17yrs and maximum age limit for it is 25...... SC/ST/OBC students get relaxation of 5 years on upper age limit.
so if you are a sc or st candidate then you get a concession for age limit ........

now when you will complete your b.tech form iit , at that time you will be probably 21-22yrs .......and then you will go for 12th again from open school ......which will take another 1yr ans since pmt includes both the portion of 11th and 12th biology along with other subjects ....it might take another one year for the preparation........

and so it will be difficult for you to crack the exam in the first and last attempt......
but then too i will advise you that if you are very serious about it then consult a consultant regarding this .......

best of luck
thank you

Re: Changing from Engineering to Medicine?

WOW! I'm glad to see so many others having similar wishes! I am a 3rd year enginnering student in Bangalore and I desperately want to do medicine at this point. i loved phy and bio and when confronted i took the easy way out and picked engineering. but this will only ultimately take me to software and that i dont want! i had taken up pcmc in 12th :( i'm open to suggestions centred about pursuing medicine in other countries as well. Singapore for example, does not ask for the 12th-bio combo! but admissions into those schools are very hard. also, if it is a foreign university, i would definitely have to go on a loan since it will be too expensive to afford otherwise. Any advice or suggestions/help?

Hi
I am a student doing a btech from in chemical eng from IIT Delhi. I too haven't done bio in class 12. I am totally and irrevocably made a decision that i want to pursue a career in Medicine. I am open to med school in the US or any other foreign university. I would greatly appreciate any info on how i can get a bio class 12 certificate from school or anything else which might help me in this regard.

Life is not achieving degrees.Such whims are are common in engineering students who intend to study everything starting from basic.So fail to gain satisfying level of knowledge or may be grades or even peer pressure as they get better grade with poorer knowledge.It is frustrating.
This is first lesson for bright students like you.

Secondly if bio or medical science is your choice select PG subject as
Biotechnology
Genetic engineering
Biorobotics...

These requires medical knowledge & you can contribute to the medical science.


Lastly, take up a job in other country
work for few years
if find yourself still desperate to be medical doctor go for medical studies in developed country.

Re: Changing from Engineering to Medicine?

changing from mathematics to bio may take your 1 year or you can do oter courses after 12 but put a private form of bio from any college.

Re: Changing from Engineering to Medicine?

Dear,

Sorry to say but I don't understand why you have decided to change your mind of

doing that.

You are studying in one of the best institutions with one of the best course.

But if you really want to enter in the medical stream then you need to do class 12th

again with Physics , Chemistry , Biology.

Then you can opt for various fields in medicals.

But if you don't want that , you can directly opt for biotechnology and then various

options are available . So look for it.

Thanks.

Re: Changing from Engineering to Medicine?

Way to go mate..I am planning to do medical after my B.Tech.too. am currently at NIT,Surat doing Electronics 2nd year ..
And have similar calculations about PMT .except the fact that I had bio in my 12th.
Actually I did crack PMT, just that;at the time I didnt feel like taking on medicine.My parents and G'parents are docs and I felt like carving my niche, and doing engg.
So I entered NIT with an intention of getting out and entering a med school.Plus I kinda discovered it a wee bit late,that I actually have an aptitude in human physiology.
Anyways.great stumbling upon this thread
Kudos and good luck.
Hope to see you sometime

Re: Changing from Engineering to Medicine?

raviteja u shold go for a medical treatment except medical side twelveth class.ur mind is failure since u have taken up addmission in iit.bcz u work hard indeed to get addmission in it really.since then, u r in mental problem.life is a precious gift by god.it is very short.dont waste it .earn more and learn more.u should go for pg in ur concerned subject or u shold go for a job.if u cant do it,then go for a psychiatrist .he would really treat u.bcz he also want engineering after medicine.mind always think more and more in day and even night also.but everything man cant get in a short span of life.u can try engineering in next time(next birth).now go for study.after that a good future.at last but not list,mans life is like a water bubble, it can blown away
anytime.then no use of ur iit,medicine or any thing even ur degrees.so enjoy life .life has many more to do except study.

u can not make a 15year old,u know what i want to say that, i want my childhood again.but its not possible.i can see only my childhood photographs u know(as nios xiith class)

Re: Changing from Engineering to Medicine?

Hi,

I feel good to see so many people out here with similar interest as me. I used to love Physics and Medicine right from my school days because of which I was very confused to decide if its engg or medicine to go for.
I have completed dual degree course from BITS Pilani in EEE and Physics. I had an interest to pursue Medicine while I was in college and my interest still remains the same. There are seniors from my college who has done Medicine (though not in India) after Mtech and phds.
But I would like to know how to go about doing Medicine in India after engineering? Not all universities in India have an upper age limit for MBBS I guess.
Though it is time consuming still there are fields like radiology in Medicine which can integrate the engineering courses and medical studies.
People with similar interest can form some group so that we can discuss with each other and get some directions.....

Re: Changing from Engineering to Medicine?

Yes obviously you can go from engineering to medicine by doing 12th again from open university with PCB but one thing may cause interrupt to your desire is the age limit as maximum age limit to sit into PMT is 25.

But one thing i really want to know why are you changing your career from engineering to medical as you study in IIT?
Are you not getting any type of interest in engineering, if not then your decision is right but in that case you should concentrate on Medical very highly.

Re: Changing from Engineering to Medicine?

hello dear


sorry to say, you can't do medical after your engg.

as you know both are different field.

so it will be better to do 12th with PCB combination.

Re: Changing from Engineering to Medicine?

dear friend,

you can change from engineering to medicine only if you have Biology in your 12th..

otherwise it is not possible..

As you are saying that you are doing your engineering from IIT , then why you want to change your field..

after completion of your Btech you can get a good job..

if you want to do higher study then you can do it in your own field..


all the best..

Re: Changing from Engineering to Medicine?

dear friend ...

if you are not interested in engineering then you should go in medicine line

according to your interest.

both the line is good.

if you will do good in medicine line then your future will be bright.

for that purpose you have to do B.Pharma and M.Pharma.

best of luck...........

Re: Changing from Engineering to Medicine?

Re: Changing from Engineering to Medicine?

Friend when you are from the field of mechanical engineering than why are you looking for medicine. Yes, if you have biology in your 10+2 than can go ahead. But than also I think you can have better career growth in mechanical engineering only. The decision of switching over to another field is very big so think before you take decision.

Re: Changing from Engineering to Medicine?

Hey,

changing from Engineering to Medicine is possible however it will be complete waste of time and money. You are already going to have a brilliant career since your are in IIT. So don't diverse your mind and study well. My professor used to say "if you don't have interest then create it".
