With a NEET 2024 score of 398, you stand a decent chance of getting admission into BAMS (Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery), BHMS (Bachelor of Homeopathic Medicine and Surgery), BUMS (Bachelor of Unani Medicine and Surgery), or BPT (Bachelor of Physiotherapy) courses in Jammu and surrounding states.

With a NEET score of 347 and as an OBC candidate in Maharashtra, you satisfy the eligibility requirement for BAMS and BHMS courses since the cutoff for candidates from the OBC category generally falls around the 40th percentile. Even so, in government colleges it may be difficult to get admitted with higher marks being the deciding factor.

Having 155 marks in NEET and being an SC candidate, admission to MBBS or BDS in a government medical college is unlikely because of very high cutoffs. But you can have chances in private colleges or for courses like BAMS (Ayurveda), BHMS (Homeopathy), BUMS (Unani), or BPT (Physiotherapy) in some private or deemed universities. You can also try paramedical courses like B.Sc. Nursing, Medical Lab Technology (MLT), or Radiology, which have lower cut-offs. State counseling and considering private institutions with reserved seats can improve your prospects of getting admission in a medical-related field.

With 658 marks in NEET 2024, an AIR of 23,088, and an SC rank of 480, you have a good possibility of getting a government medical college in Delhi under the 15% All India Quota (AIQ). Although Delhi domicile candidates are given preference for state quota seats, AIQ provides an opportunity for non-residents to compete for seats in top colleges such as:

Maulana Azad Medical College (MAMC)
Lady Hardinge Medical College (LHMC) (for women)
University College of Medical Sciences (UCMS)
Final admission is based on cutoffs of the year, hence take part in counseling and observe cutoff trends for confirmation.
