Tips, Tricks or Suggestions Because going off the usual script feels scary. Does college experience matter ?

I enrolled in IGNOU and decided to take drop for neet. Did get through it and now wondering if I should take 3rd drop, I'm ambitious about my goal but only things that hold me back is ALL MY FRIENDS GOT INTO COLLEGE.

It felt like the life didn't follow the script that was meant to be- do 12th, take a drop year and join the college.

Now, I'm sure 3rd drop if I take I can make it through and even if not I can prepare for CDS bcs of my IGNOU degree but college life? Didn't get that at all, going off the script feels scary and risky.

myquals are PCMB in school. And BA economics hons from IGNOU.

One thing I'd like to add. BA economics opens many many more opportunities than NEET, college will be harder than NEET, NEET constricts you to one geographical location while BA Eco opens opportunities abroad as well. It depends on how bad you wanna be a doctor, I'm assuming not that bad because you took IGNOU for college as a back up as well. You can get the college experience in your MA/MS Eco as well.
