Yes, you do have to do MBBS because neurology is basically one of the studies in medicine. and doctor or surgeon is probably the best career you can opt after studying neurology.

what an odd combination of subjects you've got, definitely not for MBBS. You have to have physics for mbbs, and hence neurology.
You cannot even apply for engineering, architecture because that requires physics too.

MBBS + Post Graduate Neurology

In western countries it works like biomedical science/engineering/economics undergraduate and then a post graduate in Neuroscience. You reminded me of my economics professor, he's a neuroeconomics researcher. Lol, so many fields have come out now . . .

an extract from wikipedia for you :' A neurologist is a physician specializing in neurology and trained to investigate, or diagnose and treat neurological disorders. Neurologists may also be involved in clinical research, and clinical trials, as well as basic research and translational research. Neurology, being a branch of medicine,'
this is what neurologists do, what has maths to do with it anyways? you need to do medical, and for that physics is needed along with bio and chemistry in both O and A levvels.ways? you need to do medical, and for that physics is needed along with bio and chemistry in both O and A levvels

sorry! its completely my fault!! i mistook neurology for neuroscience! i thought they were the same thing but they worlds apart. Actually i am going for neuroscience and not neurology. Neuroscience requires bio, chem and maths but other subjects can also be taken as alternatives like physics and psychology.

Not that I know of. But there should be some. I mean wherever I see, I find a university offering MBBS programme or ACCA, why not neuroscience? Its so depressing that if you want to study something besides MBBS or ACCA, you have to go abroad. Why can't my country take a step forward and start focusing on education?
Sorry for all the blabbing :)
btw where are you from? You don't live in Pakistan?
