You will typically need to submit your NEET scores for MBBS in Bangladesh, as most institutions ask for them. To work as a doctor in India, you must first clear the Foreign Medical Graduate Examination (FMGE) and then register with your State Medical Council.

Yes, you will typically have to submit your NEET scores for MBBS in Bangladesh, since most institutions ask for them. You can work as a doctor in India afterwards, but only after clearing the FMGE, and NEET is also required if you want to practise in India.
