With 476 marks in NEET 2025 and belonging to the General EWS category, you do have a fair chance of getting an MBBS seat in a government medical college, but it largely depends on your home state and the cutoff trends this year.

For All India Quota (AIQ) 15% seats, the cutoff for General EWS candidates usually goes above 500, so it might be slightly tough to get a seat through AIQ unless there’s a drop in cutoffs or you're applying in states where cutoffs are relatively lower.

However, under the 85% state quota, your chances improve significantly if you belong to a state where government medical colleges have lower cutoffs for EWS candidates, especially in the second or mop-up rounds. States like Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Rajasthan, and Chhattisgarh have shown some flexibility in cutoffs for EWS students in past years.

It’s important to apply through both AIQ and your state counselling and stay updated on closing ranks in each round. You can also use the NEET college predictor tool to explore which colleges accepted similar scores last year.

All the best!
