NEET Cutoff Marks: Everything You Need to Know

The NEET counseling cutoff is the minimum required to mark a candidate needs to obtain to be eligible for the NEET counseling process. These cutoff marks depend on the category of the candidate.

NEET 2025 Expected Cutoff (Based on Previous Years):

• General: 720–138
• OBC: 137–108
• SC/ST: 137–108
• PwD (General): 137–122

The cutoff is determined by considering multiple factors:

• Total number of candidates who appeared
• Difficulty level of the exam
• Availability of seats
• Reservation criteria

Meeting the cutoff makes you eligible for counseling, but admission depends on your rank, seat availability, and college preferences — it does not guarantee admission.

What to Do After Checking Your NEET Result

Once you have your NEET score, the next logical step is to analyze your rank and shortlist medical colleges accordingly. Here's what you can do next:

1. Compare your score with previous years' cutoffs for government and private colleges.
2. Use NEET rank predictors available online to estimate your chances at different colleges.
3. Start gathering essential documents for counseling like mark sheets, identity proofs, photographs, and category certificates (if applicable).
4. Make a list of colleges you wish to apply to, both under All India Quota and State Quota.
5. Discuss with parents, mentors, or counselors to choose the best course/college based on your rank and budget.

Didn't Score What You Expected? Here's What You Can Do

• Scoring lower than expected in NEET (National Eligibility cum Entrance Test) does not mean the end of your medical dream.
• Take a gap year and appear again with better strategy and guidance.
• We also provide for paramedical and allied health science like B.Sc. Nursing, Physiotherapy, Biotech, etc.
• You can also consider studying abroad in countries like Russia, Ukraine, the Philippines, or Georgia — where an NEET qualification is sufficient for admission.
• After completing the 12th, you can go for BAMS, BHMS and BUMS courses that come under AYUSH systems, which are great courses to pursue.

If your mood is demotivational, seek mental and emotional support — a mentor, friend, or counselor.
