I'm passionate about science, I don't care much for medicine, but I can appreciate being a MSL (medical science liaison) maybe a physician-researcher, that, life sciences consulting, bioinformatics, genetic sciences and a backup in biotech + IP law. I want to do PCB because it's slightly easier for me, and I want to do NIOS math, so that I know math and perhaps clear some easier exams. I don't plan to do more than just pass NIOS math. I'm also open to PharmaD is all else fails and pivot to regulatory affairs/MSL eventually. NEET/IMAT are still on the table for me, but I understand they are risky.

To make it more clear, I want a [b.tech} biotech/bioinfo etc, etc. Like via VIT or Manipal etc,

However, I've noticed, and seen of late, people calling and considering PCB risky, and that it kills career chances if one doesn't 'crack' NEET and get into an MBBS or BDS program, (since, AYUSH and Veterinary sciences are risky, and tbh, so is medicine without a PG)

So, essentially, do I take

PCB (CBSE/TSBIE) + Math NIOS or PCM (CBSE/TSBIE) + Biology NIOS for my career goals?

thank you

Be forewarned this for the Indian context. India = republic of India

I'm not entirely opposed to being moderate at NIOS math, but only time will tell

However, I've noticed, and seen of late people calling and considering PCB risky, and that it kills career chances if one fails to clear NEET and enter an MBBS/BDS (because AYSUH and veterinary sciences are similarly risky, though, MBBS / BDS without a specialization is rather risky as well.)

what I'm wondering is if I should choose to pursue PCB + NIOS math or PCM + biology NIOS for better qualifications?

thank you

I'm sorry for posting this here,

But I was planning our my Uni, and I encountered a problem. I'm an American citizen, I was born to indian parents, and I moved to Hydrabad in Telangana in grade six, when I enter grade 12 it will be 2029. I have an OCI card that was issued in 2013.

Right now, my goals are,

MBBS (bc relatives)

pharmaD

B.tech bioinformatics

Biotech+ IP

BBA + MBA

Bioengineering+ MBA

I know, all over the place. Some relatives are trying to get me to write NEET, but I don't want that. For all my other options, I want to try to get into a tier 1.5 university, like VIT, Manipal, Osmania etc.

Will I be placed in the OCI/ management quota for all these universities? Do you have any idea? I'm not able to financially handle increased UG fees.

For referance, the qualifications I intend on getting are.

Bipc/PCB (different names depending on the board, preferably TSBIE/CBSE)

• Math (via NIOS)

Also,

The CSE job market is cooked, like so cooked it's burnt, is bioinformatics similarly cursed? I know there's a lot of overlap with jobs, but if I'm unable to get a job + paying extra there's no point, though, I'm passionate about Genetic sciences.

Thank you!

For referance, I want to do my UG degree in India because it's cheaper and closer to some family.

Would a b.tech bioinformatics be more employable than a b.tech computer science?

The CSE job market is absolutely cursed, is bioinformatics similarly cursed? I know there's a lot of overlap with their jobs, and Bsc. Bioinformatics is a degree in unemployment, only slightly better than philosophy or sociology.

Thank you!

I'm in grade ten, and I know there's a lot of stressful and awful things going on, so, you may be too stressed to reply.

I'm very passionate about science and I used to want to be a scientist as a little girl, I don't anymore, but and I don't think I'd like being a doctor, I suppose I'd survive or want certain fields like pediatrics, dermatology, or dentistry.

Global mobility and a higher salary are important to me, but I'm very susceptible to stress, and bullying, like I will suffer and my grades will tank. I value a study life balance, and a work life balance after that, I do enjoy learning new things, and I like reading deeply into the textbook, I also am not applicable to have any form of reservation or anything of the sort. I've never been one for blind memorization

I know I should do it, in this cooked job market, medicine is likely the only that's safe, like 100% you'll get a job, and I won't have to suffer the stigma of failing, salaries are higher.

My relatives and everyone around me, are trying to push me towards being a doctor, they speak as though it's best thing in the world. Should I do it?
