- NEET 2025 Difficulty: Although many found this year’s paper tougher, AIIMS Delhi’s prestige means cutoffs remain elevated.
- Seat Count: With limited seats (just 100 for UG MBBS), the margin for entry is razor-thin.
- Massive Applicant Pool: Over 20.8 lakh students appeared this year, intensifying competition.
- Stable Seat Matrix: No major increase in MBBS seats in AIIMS or other top colleges.
What Happens Next?
- The official cutoff will be released after NEET 2025 results and the start of MCC counselling.
- Candidates must track the 15% All India Quota and AIIMS-specific seat allotment rounds.
