No, a score of 157 marks on the NEET exam is unlikely to be enough to get an MBBS seat:

Cut-off scores

The cut-off score for government MBBS seats is usually higher than 500 out of 720. The minimum marks required in NEET for MBBS admission in 2024-2025 are 720 for the General category, 161 for OBC, and 161 for SC/ST

With a NEET score of 393, admission to BDS or MBBS programs may be challenging, especially in government colleges.

BDS Admission

• Government Colleges: Typically require at least 450 marks.
• Private Colleges: A score in the 50th percentile (unreserved category) may be sufficient.

MBBS Admission

• A score of 393 is on the lower side, but some private medical colleges or institutions with higher fee structures might accept candidates with this score.

It is advisable to participate in NEET counseling and explore options in private colleges or deemed universities. Additionally, you can consider management quota seats if financially feasible.
