Hello,

Achieving 168 marks in NEET 2026 means your likelihood of obtaining an MBBS seat in government colleges is nearly zero, since these generally demand 450–550+ marks. You are eligible for the management quota in private and deemed medical colleges, where qualifying often begins at only 150–200 marks.

Numerous deemed universities admit applicants scoring between 150 and 200 marks, typically asking for fees ranging from Rs 20 to Rs 25 lakh annually. In a similar fashion, private universities in regions such as Maharashtra, Karnataka, and Uttar Pradesh also accept students within this score range through management or NRI quotas, with tuition fees varying from Rs 10–30 lakh per year.

Hope this helps. All the best!
