MBBS is easy for an average student if he loves the field. MBBS is a challenging course, and demands a lot of hours studying and less time spent like a normal youth. Honestly, it's a lot of knowledge and less problem solving.Candidates who have not gone under classroom training are eligible for NEET (UG) as NIOS is a recognized qualification.
