With 231 Mark an ST CATEGORY to get selected for mbbs course under state quota in North East is posible or not
Hello,
Achieving 231 marks in NEET 2025 within the ST category provides a slight chance of obtaining an MBBS seat through the state quota in select North Eastern states, even though it might be quite difficult. Regions such as Arunachal Pradesh, Mizoram, Nagaland, and Meghalaya, where there are fewer medical aspirants and a greater reserved quota for Scheduled Tribes, may see cutoffs in the lower spectrum, occasionally around 250–300 marks for ST candidates. Nevertheless, 231 marks fall just short of those lower-range thresholds, meaning MBBS admission may not be guaranteed. Nonetheless, you might still find opportunities in private medical colleges, government-aided private institutions, or through BDS, BAMS, or BHMS programs, which generally have lower cutoffs. It is strongly advised to engage in the counselling process of your home state and keep track of mop-up and stray vacancy rounds, during which occasional spots become available due to withdrawals.
Hope this helps. All the best!
