While getting a good enough government college with a NEET score of 500 being in the Open category is quite difficult, there is a chance that some of the lesser known but good government colleges of Maharashtra might call you by their second round merit lists. According to previous trends, if you have the 85% State Quote with 70% or 30% regional domicile in the state of Maharashtra, you can be allotted a seat in the marks range of 485-520 in the successive merit lists. But you shouldn't aim for the big names in and around Maharashtra as their percentile demand is way higher for the Open category. This lowers as you go down the list of colleges and you will be quite able to get a good government college in Maharashtra with the NEET score you have achieved. Going by the statistics in the previous NEET merit lists, the last government seat to be received in Maharashtra was for the marks of 480+/720 in 2018, 492/720 in 2017, and 506/720 in 2016. These statistics clearly show that if the ranking remains unaffected like the past years, you have a good chance on getting into a government college in Maharashtra.
