Hello,

Depending on your category and the particular college, your NEET score should ideally be higher than 400 in order to be admitted to a government BAMS (Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery) college in 2025. For example, the top BAMS government colleges' closing ranks in 2024 varied from roughly 25,000 to 45,000, which corresponded to NEET scores in the 500–600 range for the general category. Scores in the 400–500 range corresponded to closing ranks of up to 70,000 for reserved categories such as SC, ST, and OBC. However, depending on variables like the volume of applications, seat availability, and exam difficulty, these numbers may change each year. Aiming for a score higher than 400 would therefore increase your chances of getting accepted into a government BAMS college.

All the best.

BAMS 2025 cutoff for general category candidates

Dear Candidate,
With 250 marks in NEET , admission to BAMS in Sion is unlikely for general Category . Possible for reserved categories depending on cutoff .

Hello there,

With 60 marks in KCET and 231/300 in PCM from the Karnataka board, getting a BAMS (Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery) seat is difficult through KCET , especially in government colleges , as BAMS admissions are mainly through NEET , not KCET.

Here's what you should know:

• BAMS admission is based on NEET score , not KCET.
  
  

• KCET is for engineering, agriculture, and some other professional courses—not medical.
  
  

• If you didn’t appear for NEET, you cannot get a BAMS seat under the regular process.

You can explore alternative courses under AYUSH only if you've written NEET or consider related fields like B.Sc. in allied health sciences.

I would recommend you to use the KCET College Predictor Tool by Careers360 to get the list of possible colleges you can get with your rank.

I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries, feel free to share your questions with us, and we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you, and I wish you all the best in your bright future.
