Hello there,

With a NEET UG 2024 score of 500 in the open category from Punjab, you have a reasonable chance of securing admission to MBBS in a private medical college or a deemed university .

Private Medical Colleges

Many private medical colleges in India have varying cut-off scores. Based on previous years, colleges often set their cut-offs between 450 to 550 for open category students. With a score of 500 , you are within a competitive range for several private institutions. However, it's essential to consider the fee structure, which can be high in private colleges.

Deemed Universities

Deemed universities generally have slightly lower cut-offs compared to private colleges, making them a viable option. For your score, many deemed universities might accept students in the 500-550 range , particularly those in states with a higher number of institutions.

Next Steps
