Hello,

Scoring 187 marks in NEET 2025 significantly reduces your likelihood of securing admission to an MBBS program in a government medical college, as these institutions usually demand much higher scores, frequently exceeding 500 for general category applicants and somewhat lower for reserved category students.

Nevertheless, with 187 marks, you could still secure a seat for MBBS at a private medical college, particularly under the management or NRI quota, depending on seat availability and that year's cut-off trends.

Certain private or deemed universities in India accept candidates with NEET scores ranging from 150 to 200, particularly during the later counselling rounds or if there are unfilled seats. It is essential to highlight that the fees in private colleges for management quota are substantially elevated, ranging between Rs 10 lakhs and Rs 25 lakhs annually.

You ought to engage in both state counselling and MCC (deemed university) counselling to examine all possible choices. Additionally, explore other medical options such as BAMS, BHMS, or BPT, where the cut-off tends to be lower and the potential for a healthcare career is still robust.

You can consider using the college predictors

Hope this helps. All the best!
