Hello aspirant,

In order to get seat in MBBS one need to qualify NEET.
Starting from 2019 NEET qualification is a necessity even for MBBS Abroad.

For qualifying NEET , minimum qualifying marks is necessary.

SC/ST :40th Percentile marks

General:50th Percentile

In NEET 2018, the cut off marks for SC/ST Category was 96 and for General Category it was 119.

NEET cutoff percentile remain same but cut off marks change every year. In my suggestion to be on safer side.

SC/STshould try to get around 120 marks andGeneralshould try to get around 165 , cut off usualy do not go beyond this. This is just a rough calculation looking at previous year cut off.
Once you qualify seat in India you need 600 plus to get great Govt colleges and atleast 400 something to secure seat in any govt. college
Hope you understand
Thank you
