Minimum Marks Required in NEET for MBBS in Government College

“Minimum Marks Required in NEET for MBBS in Government College”

Every medical aspirant in India has a choice of two types of medical colleges in India to choose from at the time of admission. One is the government medical college and the other is the Private Medical college. Former are economical and reasonable but difficult to get in. And later colleges are far more expensive, with an annual fee of several lakhs. Thus, private colleges are not preferred by most students and most students seek admission into Government medical colleges. Thus, this article will brief you on the minimum marks required in NEET for MBBS in a government college in India.

Securing a government medical seat for scholars is a little tough due to high competition. NEET has been considered as the toughest National exam in India, followed by JEE. Though the difficulty level of the paper is considered moderate, the competition arises from the ratio of applicants to seats.

Total Government MBBS Seats in India :-

There are approximately 80,000 total medical seats in India out of which 42,568 seats are from the 280 government colleges and the rest of the seats are from private medical colleges and deemed universities. Scholars willing to take admission to government colleges in India have arduous competition in their way.  

The government medical colleges in India have divided their total number of seats into two quotas:-

• All India Quota (AIQ)
• State Quota

15% of government college seats are reserved for the all-India quota. While the rest 85% of the seats are reserved for state students.

The 85% of MBBS seats in government colleges are further divided into 4 among the students based on their categories:-

• The general and unreserved category (GEN/UR) sometimes referred to as the open category.
• Unreserved physically handicapped (UR-PH)
• SC/ST/OBC
• SC/ST/OBC physically handicapped

The minimum marks required in NEET for MBBS in government college for each category fluctuates as given in the table below:-

NEET Percentile for Admission in MBBS in Government College Based on Marks :-

NEET percentile = your NEET score/ topper NEET score *100

Suppose you got a score of 550 and the topper scored 710 then the percentile is calculated as follows:

NEET percentile= 550/710 *100 = 77.4644 %

For the general or unreserved category of students, the cut-off percentile is 50 which means that you need to score approximately 360 or above in order to get admission to MBBS in a government college. Whereas, for SC/ST/OBC students the cut-off percentile is 40, which means they need to score at least 288 or above to be able to get admission in MBBS in a government college.

NEET Percentile for Admission in MBBS in Government College Based on Rank:-

NEET percentile= [ ( Total number of candidates – NEET rank ) / Total number of candidates] * 100

Assuming that you got a rank of 24000 and the total number of candidates who appeared in NEET 2020 was 13,66,945, then your NEET percentile is:

NEET percentile = ( ( 13,66,945 – 24000 ) / 13,66,945 ) * 100 = 98.2%

Hence based on this calculation a general category student should hold a rank above 6,83,473 to be eligible for admission in government college for MBBS. While an OBC student should secure a rank above 8,20,167 to be eligible for admission into government college for MBBS.

Apart from the cut-off rank it also depends on the number of students applying for the college,
