Hello Dhananjay,

With a NEET score of 166, your chances of securing a seat in deemed medical colleges are limited but not impossible. Deemed universities often have higher cutoffs compared to government colleges, and the cutoffs can vary significantly from year to year.

Possible Options

1. Deemed Universities : Look for deemed universities that may have lower cutoffs. Some deemed universities have been known to admit students with scores in the lower range, but it's crucial to check the specific cutoffs for the current year.
   
   

2. Management Quota : Many deemed universities have a management quota where students can secure seats at higher fees. This could be an option to consider, especially if you're open to private college fees.

3. Participate in Counseling : Ensure you participate in all counseling rounds, including stray vacancy rounds. Sometimes, unfilled seats can be available for students with lower scores.
   
   Recommended Actions

• Research Colleges : Research deemed universities such as KMC Manipal, KIMS, and others in your vicinity. Check their previous years' cutoffs to gauge where you might stand.
  
  

• Stay Updated : Follow the official websites for NEET UG counseling and deemed universities for the latest updates on cutoffs and admission processes.

For detailed information on deemed colleges and their admission processes, you can refer to the official NEET UG counseling website or specific college admission pages.
