Why BAMS? The Rising Appeal and NEET’s Role in Your Journey

Ayurveda isn’t just another course, it’s a lifestyle rooted in India’s 5,000-year-old tradition of natural remedies, herbs, and holistic care.
The BAMS program runs for 5.5 years (4.5 years of classes + 1 year of internship) and prepares you to diagnose, treat, and prevent illnesses using Panchakarma, herbal therapies, and lifestyle changes.

And the timing couldn’t be better. The global wellness market is set to reach $7 trillion by 2025, and demand for Ayurvedic professionals is rising in clinics, spas, research, and even pharmaceuticals.

Admissions are through NEET-UG only.As of 2025, India has around 270 BAMS colleges (about 50 government and 220 private), and clearing NEET-UG is mandatory for admission.
You need 50% in Physics, Chemistry, and Biology (40% for reserved categories) to qualify, after which seats are allotted through AACCC central counselling (15% All India Quota) or state-level counselling.

Cutoffs vary,Top government BAMS colleges usually need 520–550+ in NEET for general category students (e.g., NIA Jaipur, BHU), while private colleges may accept scores around 350–420 depending on the state. But with such stiff competition, good coaching makes all the difference. At VVT, our AI tools, error exams, and focused remedy classes help students push scores 50–100 marks higher, turning average attempts into top ranks.
