Hello aspirant,

Compared to the previous year, 2021 cutoff went a bit down. NEET cut off marks for General category is 720-138 marks, for SC / ST / OBC category it is 137-108 marks, for the General-PwD category it is 137-122 marks, and for SC / ST / OBC-PwD it is 121-108 marks. As you see the minimum score varies between 108 to 138 for any category so I'm afraid but 87 marks is not a qualifying marks for NEET exam. I hope you succeed next year.Use NEET UG college predictor for further reference. https://medicine.careers360.com/neet-college-predictor?icn=QnA &ici=qna_answer All the best.

Hi


>>>>>>>> With 87 marks, irrespective of the category you belong to

You cannot any medical/dental college be it government or private

This is because,

You have failed to qualify neet examination but in order to be eligible for getting admission in MBBS, BDS, BAMS, BHMS etc even in private colleges for management quota seat or anywhere  you must qualify Neet examination

For your reference,

Neet 2021 qualifying cutoff  for different   categories is given below:-

.                     NEET 2021 CUT OFF

Category     cut off percentile  Cut off marks

General/ EWS     50th                   720-138

General-PH        45th                 137-122

SC                       40th                 137-108

ST                         40th                137-108

OBC                      40th                137-108

SC/ST/OBC-PH   40th               121-108

So,

An obc/sc/st category student requires at least 108 marks, to qualify neet 2021 and for general category at least 138 marks is required to qualify Neet 2021

Now that,

You have failed to qualify , I would suggest you to prepare again for Neet examination .

Follow the below tips to prepare well for your Neet examination
