Dear Aspirant

In medical admissions across India state quota plays a very significant role Each state has its own set of rules and criteria to define domicile status In general for Delhi state quota candidates the state authorities consider the place where you have passed your twelfth standard examination as an important factor Since you have completed your twelfth standard from Delhi you can be eligible for Delhi state quota counselling if you have the relevant documents such as the mark sheet of the twelfth examination conducted by a Delhi school or a Delhi residential proof for that period

Although your permanent residence is in Uttar Pradesh you can claim the state quota benefits for Delhi if you have valid proof of your twelfth standard education from a recognized school located in Delhi In this case you can participate in the Delhi state counselling process under the state quota Meanwhile for Uttar Pradesh you would only be able to claim the state quota if you have a valid domicile certificate issued by the authorities in Uttar Pradesh which generally requires long term residence in that state

With a NEET score of four hundred and thirty and an All India Rank of approximately one hundred fifty five thousand it might be challenging to secure an MBBS seat in a government medical college or semi private medical college in either Delhi or Uttar Pradesh as the cutoffs for the General category tend to be higher However you can still consider alternatives such as private medical colleges in these states where the required NEET scores are relatively lower compared to government institutions The fees are higher for these institutions but it can be an option if you are keen on pursuing an MBBS degree

Your status as a Defence ward under Priority Eight can help in gaining access to certain reserved seats for Defence category candidates across institutions that recognize this quota You should apply for counselling under this category in whichever state it is applicable and closely track official notifications related to seat allocation for Defence wards

If your marks are not enough for a direct MBBS admission in a government or semi private medical college consider applying for courses like BDS BAMS BHMS or other allied health courses which have lower cutoff marks You can also consider appearing for NEET again next year if MBBS in a government college is your priority and utilize this year to strengthen your preparation
You can claim the state quota benefits for Delhi if you have passed your twelfth standard examination from Delhi Your permanent residence in Uttar Pradesh allows you to claim domicile benefits for that state only if you have a valid domicile certificate The marks and All India Rank you have might make getting an MBBS seat in a government or semi private college challenging However you can explore private medical colleges or consider applying under the Defence category quota You can also consider alternatives like BDS BAMS or BHMS or retake the NEET exam next year to improve your score and increase your chance of gaining admission to an MBBS programme in a government college
