Hello,

Scoring 187 marks in NEET 2025 means your likelihood of securing an MBBS seat in a government medical college is very slim, since government colleges typically demand significantly higher scores, usually over 500 marks for unreserved categories.

You might still qualify for MBBS admission in private medical colleges through the management quota or NRI quota, particularly in states with lower cut-offs and greater enrollment capacity for private institutions.

Numerous deemed universities and private medical colleges accept applicants with NEET scores between 150 and 200 for MBBS courses, although the tuition fees are considerably elevated, varying from Rs 10 lakhs to Rs 25 lakhs annually or more.

You can also consider courses such as Ayurveda, Homeopathy, Unani, or Physiotherapy, where the cut-offs tend to be lower and admissions are easier with your score. It's recommended to engage in your state counselling and consider deemed university counselling via MCC to enhance your opportunities.

Hope this helps. All the best!
