Dear Aafrin,

Talking about eligibility it is 50th percentile for UR and for reserved candidates it is 40th percentile. But, mere eligibility and qualifying the exam doesn't ensure you a seat dear. Try to keep your score high, be calm and composed and you will definitely succeed. Keep your target to 550+ and that might help you achieve in 500 range.

Best wishes

Dear Aafrin,

There is nothing called passing marks in NEET Exam. In NEET, it is qualifying marks rather which is 50th percentile for general category and 40th percentile for reserved categories. Try to score 550+. Then you'll definitely get a good government medical college.
If you want to score good marks in NEET then just follow simple steps -
Clear your basic concepts.
Be thorough with NCERT textbook. Its a must.
Solve previous year question papers.
Take mock tests to assess your progress.
Solve questions from any reference book you prefer for competitive exams
Solve as much as numerical possible.
Use shortcuts to solve to save your time. Formulas to be at your Fingertips.
All the best !

You need to get 50 percentile in neet so as to qualify but this would not get u in Medical college. You need to get above 550+(as per least yr tend) to get in a good college

Hello Aafrin
To qualify NEET one must score a minimum of 50th percentile which was about 180 last year and that would definitely not fetch you a college. So it's not about qualifying it's about getting a good rank.
All the best for your exam
