My PCMB percentage is 95.25. I have attempted CET and NEET. I wish to pursue medicine, but should I wait for my NEET results or have a back-up plan, in case, I don’t clear NEET?Moonisha
Dear Moonisha,
As you have a good percentage in Class 12, it is advisable to wait for NEET-UG results. However, there are two points here:
A) As you have already appeared for NEET-UG exam 2019, you can measure your performance in the exam by analysing the correct and wrong answers attempted by you in the exams. If you feel that your performance in NEET-UG exam 2019 is up to the mark, you can wait for NEET-UG results.
B) It is also better to have a back-up plan so that you do not lose the admission deadlines for various colleges and courses. The decision completely depends on your performance in NEET-UG exam.

I just gave class 12 CBSE board examinations this year, scoring a 99% (1 subject is up for revaluation). I have topped east India and my all India rank is 5! I just wanted to enquire about some good colleges (both India and abroad). Also, colleges which are good for B.Com or BBA.Tushar Tatyal
Dear Tushar,
Firstly, congratulations for your outstanding performance in Class 12 exams. Before picking either of the courses, you must understand your career preference. Chose the courses that will help you pursue your ultimate goal.
For example, if you want to get a job right after your graduation then B.Com is a better option. However, if you want to foray into management, a BBA followed by an MBA is the right career path. Both the courses have good career scope. At the same time, there is a good scope for higher studies too.
