Hi

Can you help us with your state of domicile please

It's a bit difficult to predict the marks required as it keeps changing every year depending upon various factors like number of students that appeared in the exam, kind of marks obtained by them , toughness level of the examination etc.

But according to  past year trends , being from general category,  you need 550 - 600 marks if you want to get a seat in government medical college

For example,
in neet 2019 , lowest marks required for general category for getting a seat in government medical college under state quota was 575 and it was for
Medical College, Bahraich under UP state quota

Thankyou

Hello

Admission to medical colleges is done on the basis of performance of candidates in the NEET examination.

There are two types of cutoffs:

Qualifying cutoff and Admission cutoff.
Qualifying cutoff is the minimum cutoff percentile and scores needed to qualify the  entrance exam. Candidates who qualify this cutoff are only eligible to apply for admission.

Admission cutoff is the cutoff which is declared by the colleges for admitting students.

NEET 2020 qualifying cutoff percentile is as follows:

General- 50th
General-PH- 45th
SC/ST/OBC- 40th
SC/ST/OBC-PH- 40th

Scores equivalent to percentile will be announced along with the NEET 2020 result.


Now, for admission to government medical colleges, there are two types of seats.  All India Quota seats and State quota seats.

Cutoff required for admission varies category wise, state wise, college wise depending on many factors. Some of the factors determining the cutoff are:

  • Number of candidates appeared for exam
  • Difficulty level of exam
  • Total seats available

To get admission through 15 percent All India Quota, you should aim to secure 600+ marks in the NEET exam and for state quota seats aim 550+ marks to get admission in government colleges.
