Hello,

Getting into a government medical college will be challenging, as cutoffs for general category students tend to be higher, when the NEET score is 446. You may have a chance in state quota seats, especially in states that usually see lower cutoffs or in some of the peripheral medical colleges where competition might be slightly on the lower side. If you are a resident of the state that has greater availability of government medical seats, such as Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, or Maharashtra, your options might be better. You could also consider seats in private colleges where the fees are low or government seats in semi-government institutions.

Cutoffs will differ every year. They are liable to conditions such as the number of candidates, and the difficulty level of the exam, seat availability. Check the counseling cutoffs in your state and keep an eye on mop-up rounds where cutoffs may drop.
