MBBS

The minimum NEET score required for admission to a government MBBS college varies based on category and state quota. For general category students, the All India Quota (AIQ) cutoff typically ranges from 610 to 650+ for top government colleges, while state quota cutoffs may be slightly lower, around 550 to 600. Reserved categories (SC/ST/OBC) often have lower cutoffs.

Competition is high, especially in premier institutes like AIIMS, MAMC, and KGMU, where cutoffs can exceed 670+. Factors like seat availability, reservation policies, and difficulty level of NEET impact the required marks. Checking previous years' trends and state-wise cutoffs helps aspirants set realistic targets.
