hey shubra u can get admission in govt. college because if pec can give admission to students with 33% score then why not a medical college
hi subhra you can get into some college if you belong to any reservation category like SC or ST and if you come under state quota,but i would suggest that aim for 580 plus, its high , i know but absolutely doable , so aim for it.NEET 2018 Examination is most likely to be held on 10th May (Thursday) 2018 . NEET 2018 Application Form will be released in the month of January 2018.CBSE conducts NEET for admission across all medical colleges in india except aiims,and jipmer.The exam pattern is as follows:-
physics-45 questions each carrying 4 marks
chemistry-45 questions,each carrying 4 marks
and biology 90 questions each carrying 4 marks as well.hope this helps good luck
By getting 360 out of 720 ,you are ,according to the rules, qualifying for counseling , but since colleges are awarded in subsequent round of counselling in the descending order of ranks, so it will be most likely that you will not get admitted to a government MBBS or BDS college although you are eligible to apply for seats in the private sector
In order to avail the 85% state quota you need to get a score of above 500 possibly above 550 to get into a good MBBS Government College and score of above 400 to get into a good BDS college
For the 15% all India quota your rank ,definitely needs to be high enough and you need to score above 550 to avail the seats in the best medical colleges across India via this category
Unless your school is above 450 you should not be thinking of getting into a government medical college I presume
If you are holding a certificate of reservation in the form of SC or St marks may drop by around 20 to 30 at maximum 50 from what I've said but not more than that
Hope this helps..thank you

Hi Subhra Datta,
A pretty Yes for your question. yes, you can join medical college with 360 marks in NEET. It wont be a well reputed or in-demand college but a private or Deemed college is pretty sure for you with these marks.

With 360 marks you will get admission in any deemed or private medical colleges, but not having much chance for government medical college.
Best of luck

Because you have mentioned ' any ' in your question then answer is you might get private college but for Government medical seat one has to score in a safe zone of 590 or more if you are general category student but for reserved category people it's lesser than that.
If you still have any doubts about the related topic let me know in comments below.
Yes, you will be qualified with that score but to get a free seat in any government college you need to get a higher score and a better rank. You will.be eligible to take a management seat in any private medical college.
Goodluck.
Hope this helps.
