Hello,
NEET 2021 results have been declared by the National Testing Agency NTA.
To predict whether you will definitely get a seat in a college is an uphill task as cut-offs for colleges change every depending upon several factors such as-
• Number of applicants in NEET exam
• NEET question paper difficulty level
• Score of the candidates in NEET 2021 result
• MBBS/BDS seat matrix 2021
NEET 2021 Cut-off goes like :-
• General /EWS- 50th percentile
• SC/ST/OBC - 40th percentile
• General-PwD - 45th percentile
• SC/ST/OBC-PwD - 40th percentile
Marks wise cut off is as following-
• General - 720-138
• OBC/SC/ST - 137-108
• Gen PwD - 137-122
• (OBC /SC / ST ) PwD - 121-108
Though it was expected that due to higher difficulty levelt off for colleges will decrease, but it turns out students have performed exceptionally well and the cut offs have increased compared to last year.
See it is quite difficult to help you with the exact list of colleges as the counselling is yet to be conducted and the cut-offs keep on changing every year.
The marks you have scored in your NEET 2021 examination seems not enough to get a seat in All India Quota seats & State quota seats for MBBS & BDS programme. However you might want to try getting a seat in few Private colleges & deemed Universities.
With the marks you have scored, you might have chances in Deemed universities-
• Chettinad Hospital and Research Institute, Kelambakkam- MBBS
• Manipal College of Dental Sciences, Manipal- BDS
• Bharati Vidyapeeth Dental College and Hospital, Pune- BDS
• GITAM Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, Visakhapatnam- MBBS
If you wish to apply for admission in the Deemed universities, you will first need to register yourself on the official website of MCC
https://www.mcc.nic.in/
And if you desire to apply for the private colleges, you will have to register yourself on your state's NEET counseling conducting authority's website.
