Hey there,

If you achieved a NEET 2025 score of 491, belong to the general category, and are a Rajasthan resident, there is a very slim chance that you can get admission in Kasturba Medical College (KMC), Manipal after the third round of counselling.

However, it is not entirely out of the question depending on the variation of cutoff trends. KMC Manipal is considered among the best private medical colleges in India. Its cutoff for MBBS general category admissions through All India counselling or the Management/NRI quota generally ranges between 540 and 560 marks in the initial rounds.

Yet, at the mop-up or stray vacancy rounds, the cutoff point occasionally lowers marginally  approximately 500 or a little less  in the case of unoccupied seats resulting from the withdrawal of candidates or their shifting to government colleges. You have almost 492 marks which is a little less than the normal cutoff range.

So, you will be able to register for the mop-up as well as the stray vacancy rounds that will be held by MAHE (Manipal Academy of Higher Education) and MCC to try your luck. Moreover, KMC has some management quota seats that are given at a higher fee but have more relaxed cutoffs. Therefore, it may not be possible to get a merit seat, but if you are willing to take the management quota or later rounds, you still have a very slim chance.

Hello,

With a NEET score of 491 and General category, it is very difficult to get admission in Kasturba Medical College (KMC), Manipal after the 3rd round of counselling.

As per previous year data, the cut-off for General category in KMC Manipal was around 540–560 marks in earlier rounds. Also, domicile of Rajasthan does not provide any benefit because KMC Manipal is a Deemed University , and admissions are done through All India Deemed University counselling by MCC .

You can still participate in mop-up or stray vacancy rounds , but chances are low for a seat in KMC Manipal at your score.

Hope it helps !

Hello,

During the GATE correction window, you can change your category from General to OBC by logging into the GOAPS portal. You will need a valid OBC-NCL certificate and may need to pay a correction fee

I hope it will clear your query!!

Hey there,

Here are some of the private and semi-private colleges for B.Sc nursing -

1. Maharishi Markandeshwar College of Nursing (MMCON), Ambala
2. Amity University, Gurugram
3. SGT University, Gurugram
4. Maharaja Agrasen Nursing College, Agroha
5. Shri Balaji Institute of Nursing, Bahadurgarh
6. B.D.M. College of Nursing, Jhajjar
7. Birender Singh College of Nursing, Jind
8. Happy Child School of Nursing, Sonipat
9. Haryana College of Nursing, Sirsa

It looks like in the first round, getting a government or a top private seat at 67 marks can be difficult, since the general category cutoffs for the previous years have been well over 100+ marks.

In round two, there may be a chance, depending on the number of students dropping out and the seats remaining vacant. Still, the probability of you being there is quite low for the colleges with the highest demand.

You will probably get a lower-tier private college through the management quota or college-level seats (if allowed) rather than merit-based seats in the top private colleges.

So, yes there are chances you can get into college in the second round but it won't be top private colleges.

Heya,

Yes, you can refill your category again. In the case of the April session JEE Main registration, you have the option to change your category while registering your details only once. You can switch from General to EWS if you have a proper certificate. Just be certain that the EWS certificate is granted before the last date of the April session form and complies with the NTA's requirements of validity.

Hope it helps!!!

Hlo Dear Candidate,

For Computer Science/IT students in the general category, cracking government seats mainly depends on your entrance exam score. For exams like JEE Main or state CETs, you generally need around 90–95 percentile to secure a top government seat in CS/IT.

For state-level engineering admissions, the cutoff varies by college and state, but usually you need 85–95% marks in PCM or entrance exams to get a government seat. Top colleges like IITs, NITs, and state engineering colleges have the highest cutoffs for CS/IT.

Factors like number of seats, competition, and your rank also affect admission. To improve your chances, aim for 95%+ in board exams and a high rank in entrance exams.

Hiya,

You don't have to worry too much about it. As your PGCET application shows general merit not Category 1 you can correct it at the time of document verification. The officials will check your caste certificate and income certificates and then they'll update your category. Make sure to carry original and photocopies of your caste and income certificates and ID proofs.

Hope it helps!!!

Hello

Since you belong to the Scheduled Castes but converted to Christianity, the SC reservation usually does not apply after conversion.
Most government exams like JEE give SC benefits only to Hindus, Sikhs, and Buddhists, not to converted Christians.
You should check if your Christian sub-caste is listed under the OBC (Other Backward Classes) category. If yes, then you can apply under the OBC reservation.
If not listed under OBC, then you may have to apply as the General category.
You can also try for EWS (Economically Weaker Section) if your family income is below the limit. It’s best to get a caste certificate from your local authority based on your current category.

Hello aspirant,

There isn't a single cutoff for the B.Pharmacy program because it differs depending on the college, university, and entrance exam utilized for admission. It also depends on the year and the performance of the applicants.

To get the accurate information, I suggest you to provide me complete information so that I can help you better.

Thank you

Hello,

Since you belong to BC category as per your OG certificate but are a converted Christian from Scheduled Caste (serial 16A), you cannot claim SC reservation .

For JEE, reservation for OBC/BC is generally not available to converted Christians , and you can only appear under the General or General-EWS category (if your family income qualifies for EWS).

Most central scholarships for SC/OBC also do not apply to converted Christians, though some state governments provide special BC-Christian scholarships depending on the state.

Hope it helps !
