My neet marks is 178 and category sc am I eligible to get BDS in any government college in bihar jharkhand and chattisgarh
Hello,
A NEET 2025 score of 178 marks in the SC category indicates that your likelihood of obtaining a government BDS seat in Bihar or Jharkhand is quite slim. In the past few years, the cutoff for SC candidates in government BDS colleges in these states has typically been elevated — approximately 350–420 marks.
Nonetheless, there may still be an opportunity for you in certain private or semi-government dental institutions, particularly if the cutoff scores decrease or vacancies exist in subsequent rounds. Engaging in the state-level counseling for Bihar and Jharkhand is strongly advised, as it broadens your choices.
You might also think about programs such as BAMS, BHMS, or B.Sc. Nursing, where minimum scores generally are lower for reserved categories. If your aim is exclusively government MBBS or BDS, you could consider retaking NEET to achieve a better score next year.
Hope this helps. All the best!
