Dear Aspirant,
1.EWS means ( Economically Weaker Section ). It is a reservation for General category students who belong Economically weaker background.
EWS category has got 10% reservation in All India quota seats in NEET UG 2020 onwards.
You need to fulfil the criteria to come under this category.
- Your family income must be less than 8 lakhs per year
- Less than 5 acres of agriculture land
- Less than 1000 sq ft Residential flat area Or
- Less than 100 yard sq plot area ( notified municipal sector) or less than 200 yard sq (non notified municipal sector)
The lowest Cut off marks for EWS was 147/720 in NEET 2020 but allotment on a seat depends on rank as well.
2. If EWS seats are not available then those candidates will be eligible for general category.
3. EWS category cut off are usually lower than general category but yes it can happen if there are more number of EWS candidates in high ranks.
Hope this answers your query
Thank you
