i scored 427 in NEET 2025 and my rank is around 1.60 L . Can i get admission in ACMS delhi? I am a resident of delhi and belong to SC Category. If not are there any other good medical colleges i can get?
Hello aspirant,
ACMS generally has high cut-offs and mostly seats are reserved for children of Army personnel. Even with SC reservation, 427 marks (AIR ~1.6 lakh) is quite low for ACMS, so chances are very slim.

Thank you!
With your marks it's hard to get into acma delhi they need higher cutoff for sc category with your mark you can try for nearby state colleges and even private institutions like ndmc medical colleges, dr.bsa medical colleges they offer seats with your marks if you are looking for private institutions it will cost lakhs to pay a fees
With 427 marks and around 1.60 lakh AIR in NEET 2025, honestly getting a seat in ACMS Delhi is very difficult. The main reason is that almost 80% seats in ACMS are reserved for wards of Army personnel, and the remaining seats for Delhi SC category also close at a much higher rank. For Delhi government colleges like MAMC, UCMS and LHMC, the SC cutoff generally stays above 550 marks, so 427 won’t be enough there either.
But don’t lose hope. With this score and SC category, you still have chances in private medical colleges in Delhi NCR or other states. You should also try for state quota seats outside Delhi, where the SC cutoff sometimes goes lower than in Delhi. Apart from MBBS, you can also keep BDS and AYUSH courses (like BHMS, BAMS) as backup options. Many students go through this route and later attempt NEET again if they aim for a government MBBS seat.
My suggestion: Take part in all rounds of counselling (AIQ + state quota + mop-up), because seats do open up in later rounds and SC candidates can get opportunities.
Good morning ,with a NEET score of 427 and an All-India Rank of 1.6 lakh, and considering you're from Delhi with SC category, here's a clear breakdown of your chances at ACMS Delhi (Army College of Medical Sciences):
ACMS Delhi Admission Criteria
Eligibility: Only wards of Army personnel (serving/retired) or war widows are eligible for admission.
Admission Mode: Through GGSIPU counselling based on NEET UG scores.
Reservation: SC category candidates from Delhi domicile do get reservation benefits.
Cutoff Trends for SC Category (Delhi Domicile)
Based on recent data:
2023 SC Home State Closing Rank: Around 95,517
Your rank: 1.6 lakh is significantly higher than the previous cutoff.
What This Means for You
If you're eligible under Army quota and SC category, your score is below the typical cutoff for ACMS MBBS.
However, if vacant seats remain after regular rounds, you might have a slim chance in spot counselling—though it's still unlikely.
You have strong chances in government AYUSH colleges in Uttar Pradesh and nearby states:
Govt Ayurvedic College, Lucknow UP BAMS ~410–420
Govt Homeopathic College, Allahabad UP BHMS ~390–400
State Ayurvedic College, Varanasi UP BAMS ~415
Govt Ayurvedic College, Patna Bihar BAMS ~420
BSc Nursing (Govt Colleges)
With SC quota and Delhi/UP domicile, you’re well-positioned:
VMMC & Safdarjung Hospital Delhi NEET-based; SC quota helps
ABVIMS & RML Hospital Delhi Highly reputed; NEET score accepted
KGMU, Lucknow UP Govt seat; SC cutoff ~400+
SGPGI, Lucknow UP Competitive but possible with 427
Here are states where SC cutoffs for government MBBS colleges have historically hovered around your score:
State Sample Colleges SC Cutoff Range Your Chances
Chhattisgarh GMC Durg, GMC Ambikapur 410–430 Good chance
Madhya Pradesh GMC Datia, GMC Shahdol 420–440 Possible
Rajasthan GMC Pali, GMC Dungarpur 415–435 Competitive
Bihar GMC Bettiah, GMC Madhepura 420–445 Borderline
West Bengal Midnapore MC, Malda MC 430–450 Slightly above your score
Odisha SCB MC Cuttack, MKCG Berhampur 435–455 Tougher cutoff
Uttar Pradesh GMC Basti, GMC Firozabad 440–460 Above your score for SC
Assam Silchar MC, Tezpur MC 420–440 Possible with luck
Andhra Pradesh RIMS Ongole, Srikakulam 420–445 Competitive
Tamil Nadu GMC Pudukottai, GMC Krishnagiri 430–450 Slightly above your score
With 427 marks and AIR ~1.6 lakh in NEET 2025, you cannot get admission in ACMS Delhi, as it is only for wards of Army personnel.
Even in Delhi state quota for SC category, government colleges like MAMC, UCMS, LHMC, VMMC close well below 20,000 rank, so admission there is not possible.
Private colleges in Delhi such as Hamdard Institute (HIMSR) also have cutoffs above your score.
At this rank, your best chances are in private or deemed universities in other states under SC quota.
You can also try in later counselling/stray rounds, where some seats may remain vacant.
If your goal is Delhi MBBS, a re-attempt with higher preparation may be needed.
