Hello there,

With a score of 398 in NEET , the chances of securing a seat in an MBBS college depend on several factors, including the following:

  1. Category : If your daughter belongs to a reserved category (like SC, ST, or OBC), she may have a better chance as the cutoff for these categories is typically lower than for the general category.

  2. State Cutoffs : Each state has its own cutoff for government medical colleges. In some states, a score of 398 might be sufficient to secure a seat in a government college, especially in reserved categories or less competitive colleges.

  3. Private Colleges : Private medical colleges might have higher cutoffs, but some may accept lower scores. Admission processes vary, so checking specific college requirements is essential.

  4. Management Quota : In private colleges, management quota seats may be available, but these typically come with higher fees.

To maximize her chances, you should:

  • Research state-wise NEET cutoffs for the current year.
  • Look into private medical colleges and their admission criteria.
  • Consider options like BDS, BHMS, or other allied health sciences if MBBS seems challenging.

Checking the official counseling websites after the NEET results will provide more specific guidance on available seats and cutoffs.
