Hello aspirant,
With a NEET score of 425 in the EWS category, securing a government MBBS seat in Karnataka is very unlikely. The EWS cutoff for state quota in government colleges usually stays above 530–550 marks. Your score falls significantly below that.

However, you still qualify for consideration in private MBBS colleges under the management quota. These seats may open up during mop-up or stray vacancy rounds where cutoffs sometimes dip slightly. You should register for counselling through KEA, list management quota seats, and stay active through all rounds. Fees in these colleges typically range from 10 to 20 lakh per year.

Alternatively, you could explore other medical-related courses such as BDS, BAMS, BHMS, or Allied Health Sciences, where your score may be sufficient for seats in semi-government or reputable private institutes under EWS reservation.

Hello aspirant,
With 425 marks under the EWS category in Karnataka, getting a government MBBS seat is quite difficult. EWS cutoff for state quota seats in Karnataka usually stays above 530–550 marks, depending on the college. Your score is significantly below that, so chances are low for government medical colleges.

However, you can try for private MBBS colleges under the management quota, especially in the mop-up or stray vacancy rounds, where cutoffs may go lower. You’ll need to participate in Karnataka state counselling through KEA and select management seats as an option. Fees in private colleges under management quota range between 10–20 lakh per year.

You can also consider courses like BDS, BAMS, BHMS, or Allied Health Sciences, where your score may be enough for a good seat, even in semi-government or reputed private institutes.
