Hi Aspirant,

Your State Merit List (SML) for Maharashtra, especially with your SC Hilly reservation, cannot be figured out directly from your All India Rank (AIR) of 299367.

The Maharashtra CET Cell creates the SML after all state candidates register for counselling. It considers every student's NEET score, category, and specific reservations like Hilly Area. You must wait for the official SML to be released by the Maharashtra CET Cell after the counselling registration.

Since you belong to the SC category under Hilly reservation in Maharashtra and your AIR is 299367, your SML rank will definitely be different. The SML is calculated based on candidates from your state, category, and reservation type. So usually, your SML will be much better than your AIR because reservation benefits are applied here. Once the state releases the merit list officially, you’ll be able to check your exact SML. But don’t worry, your category and hilly reservation both will help improve your state rank compared to the AIR.
