No, candidates cannot directly pursue super-specialty courses such as DM (Doctorate of Medicine) or MCh (Master of Chirurgiae) after NEET PG. They must first complete a postgraduate degree such as MD or MS. After completing these programs, candidates can appear for the NEET SS (Super Specialty) examination to gain admission to super-specialty courses.
