Hello,

With an expected score of 295 in NEET 2025 as an ST category candidate in Odisha, you have a good chance of getting a BDS seat but for MBBS the chances are minimal.

The expected cutoffs for government colleges in Odisha for ST candidates are around 380-400 marks. Therefore, with 295 marks, your chances of getting an MBBS seat in a government college are limited, but not impossible.

BDS courses in government colleges usually have lower cutoffs compared to MBBS.
