Hello there,

With a NEET score of 406, the possibility of securing a government medical college seat in Tamil Nadu is quite low but not impossible, especially for candidates from reserved categories. The cutoffs can vary annually based on factors like the number of applicants and available seats.

In previous years, the cutoff for SC candidates has been around 400-450 marks, while for the general category, it tends to be higher. Given your score, here are some options to consider:

  1. Government Medical College, Thiruvarur
  2. Government Medical College, Kanyakumari
  3. Government Medical College, Tirunelveli (depending on the category)

    Steps to Follow:
  • Check Cutoff Trends : Review previous years' cutoff scores to gauge your chances.

  • Participate in Counseling : Engage in the Tamil Nadu NEET counseling process for the most accurate information on seat availability and category-specific quotas.

    I would recommend you to use NEET college predictor tool by Careers360 to get the list of possible colleges you can get with your rank.
