Category-wise Qualifying Cutoff

The AIIMS Nursing cutoff has two types of cutoffs. Let us see in detail:

Qualifying cutoff (marks-based): The All India Institute of Medical Sciences notifies the minimum qualifying marks for each category separately.

 For UR and EWS candidates, the minimum percentile notified was 50% (50 marks out of 100). Candidates scoring below their category's qualifying mark were not cleared the exam and hence were not called for counselling.

Admission cutoff (rank/percentile-based): The closing All India Rank at which a seat was actually allotted at a given AIIMS campus in a particular counselling round. This is announced separately, campus by campus, after each round.

Category

Qualifying Marks (Approx.)

The above act as the minimum qualifying marks to become eligible to be considered for selection. It does not guarantee selection in the AIIMS BSc entrance exam 2026.
