Hi, 

To get into any medical college in the coutry you need to have qualified the neet exam. The base qualifying marks vary every year depending on various factors lik the difficulty level of the paper, the number of candidates aplying for it etc.

And this trend varies every single year. 

Acc to last year cutoffs,the qualifying marks were as follows:

50th percentile-UR(691-119)

40th percentile-OBC/SC/ST(118-96)

So for OBC a min score of 96 was required to qualify the exam.

If you are looking for admission into a government college then a score of 540+ can be considered as a safe score. Cz every year competition is increasing and so is the cutoff.

But if youd score is less than that you can opt for deemed/private medical colleges too.


All the best.
