You know how competitive UI, and you also have the courage to apply for a very competitive course in a very competitive University thrice, that was your mistake. I wouldn't blame you though, because it's better to spend several years at home in order to get a very nice course, like mbbs etc. Than to get into the University as early as possible to study courses like botany and co. And at the long run be unemployed for many years. My advice to you is to search for a less competitive University they are more in the north, some in the south east, read well for your jamb to get a very high score, if you have about 10 marks above the cut off mark for mbbs, you can leave it and pray for the best, but if you have bellow the cut off mark even if it is 1 mark, better do change of course to another health course or another course of your choice.

Remember, mbbs isn't for everyone, even after gaining admission, the less brilliant ones are still dropped to science department or even withdrawn.
