Adithya, ypu haven't mentioned the State and Category you belong to. Neverthless, Private Medical Colleges do not participate in All India Counselling and the seats are filled through State Counselling alone. And for appearing for State Counselling you need to hold the domicile of that particular State. Or else the only other option is through Management Quota. Under All India Quota, All the 15% of All India Quota Seats except for Jammu and Kashmir, 100% Seats at Deemed and Central Universities, IP Quota seats in ESIC Colleges, Seats at AIIMS, JIPMER and AFMC are filled by DGHS. The 85% State Quota and Private Colleges are filled by the respective State Authorities. And there are 3 Categories in Private Medical Colleges. Category A is the Government Quota Seats. And only candidates of the home State are eligible to apply for these seats. B Category seats are also called Management Quota Seats and they are filled through State Counselling and the remaining seats are filled throuugh direct Admissions by contacting the College directly. Here the fees is usually nothing less than 40 lakhs. The last Category is NRI seats Category and you cannot apply for that. Now if your score is 400, depending on the State and Category you belong to, the type of seat you get depends. If you belong to General Category, you will get a Management Quota seat and the fees is too high. But on the other side if you belong to any of the Reserved Categories, then you can get a Govt. Quota seat. So if you need a seat in a Private Medical College, you will need atleast 450-500. To help you in your NEET preparation, we have: https://learn.careers360.com/knockout-neet-may/
