Hello aspirant,

According to the previous year cut off's, a general category student must score 650+ to get a government seat in medical colleges. The same goes for OBC/EWS candidates. Marks differ only by 3-4 marks. An SC candidate must score 570+ to get a government seat whereas an ST category student can get a government seat for as low as 400 marks.

To get a government seat in medical colleges, your NEET score matters and not your board marks. You only need to pass board exams in order to qualify for NEET.

Hope it helps!
