Lovely Professional University (LPU), but I can say LPU is best for an MS in Psychological Counseling. LPU offers a postgraduate program designed to develop advanced knowledge and practical skills in counseling, mental health assessment, and therapeutic interventions. Candidates must have a relevant bachelor’s degree, and completing a PGDPC makes you eligible for advanced coursework and practical training. The program emphasizes research, hands-on counseling experience, and skill development, preparing graduates for careers as professional counselors, therapists, or for further academic pursuits in psychology.

Dear Student,

With a rank of 68,000 in NEET PG, getting a seat in highly competitive specialities like Radiotherapy or Pathology in a top government college under AIQ is very unlikely, because past closing ranks for these branches have been much higher or much better ranks in many colleges.

Thank You
