At your marks there is almost no probability of getting a government medical college in Kerala or through AIQ COUNSELING. If you had mentioned your state rank I would told you details. Last year lowest cutoff ranks for government medical college in Kerala was state rank 13432 for sc and state rank 23345 for st category in Government Medical College, Palakkad.
