Hi Shamlal!

To be eligible for a seat, you need to get 40% aggregate in PCB subjects for OBC category. But to get a seat, the cutoff varies every year across colleges depending on how well you and the others fare in the exam as that determines your rank.

Hope this answers your question!

Greetings,
It is with utter disappointment that I inform you that it is impossible to determine the cut off marks for a particular state in the examination. Candidates appearing for the National Eligibility cum Entrance Examination may refer to previous years' cut off marks as a whole for the examination but not for any particular state as such. 
There are two ranks provided to each of the candidates appearing for the examination. One is the All India Rank and the other is the Regional or State Rank. Candidates may choose from either of the two in order to test their eligibility for admission to any of the medical colleges spread across the country. 
The cut off marks varies from year to year and so only an approximate can be determined from the evaluation of previous years' cut off. 
I hope this piece of information proves to be of some help to you. 
In case of any further assistance please feel free to refer back here.

Hi Shamlal!

The minimum mark to acquire a seat in MBBS varies every year depending on how well you and the others fare in the exam as that determines your score. 

To be eligible to participate in counselling, general category students must get 50th percentile and reserved category candidates must get 40th percentile.

Hope this answers your question!

No there are no such different cutoff like thing here in NEET.All you have to do is to perform well, and hope for a good rank.And coming to reality,in few states like Odisha OBC is equivalent to General( no reservations for OBC).Depending upon the difficulty level of questions in each year, the rank vs mark will differ.Still a mark range of 515-570 will land you in a safe range.Good luck.

Dear Student,

There is nothing called passing marks in NEET Exam. In NEET, it is qualifying marks rather which is 50th percentile for general category and 40th percentile for reserved categories. Try to score 530+. Then you'll definitely get an MBBS seat.
If you want to score good marks in NEET then just follow simple steps -
Clear your basic concepts.
Be thorough with NCERT textbook. Its a must.
Solve previous year question papers.
Take mock tests to assess your progress.
Solve questions from any reference book you prefer for competitive exams
Solve as much as numerical possible.
Use shortcuts to solve to save your time. Formulas to be at your Fingertips.
All the best !

Marks are subject to variation every year depending on the level of difficulty of the question paper and how many students end up performing well in the examination.
Even if you belong to OBC CATEGORY, try scoring above 550 to stay in the safe zone.
