NEET

It is difficult to get a place in a Government Medical College (GMC) in Maharashtra under the All India Quota (AIQ) with an All India Rank (AIR) of 117,000 in NEET because the cutoffs for general category applicants have been much lower in prior years, For example the general category candidates AIQ cutoff in 2022 was 15,453 with a NEET score of 613.


However, there might be opportunities under the Maharashtra State Quota, particularly if you fall under a reserved category. The state quota threshold for the SC category in 2024 was 131913 on the AIR and 554 on the NEET.

In order to study MBBS in Georgia, you must take up the NEET exam as the universities may ask you to submit your official scores.The minimum qualifying NEET score for MBBS abroad is 164 or higher for General candidates. Whereas, for SC, ST & OBC candidates, the minimum score requirement is 129 or above. Hence, the same is applicable for a Georgia university for MBBS. However, a score of 300 and above gives you an upper hand among the other candidates.

With 51% in NEET and 58% in 12th, getting a seat in BHMS (Bachelor of Homeopathic Medicine and Surgery) in a government college could be tough because of the competitive scenario and higher cutoffs. But you can look for private Homeopathic Medical Colleges around Solapur, e.g., Dr. DY Patil Homeopathic Medical College, Pune, Rishikul Homeopathic Medical College, Pune, and Bharati Vidyapeeth Homeopathic Medical College, Pune.

Since you have obtained a score of 121 marks in NEET, it is less likely that you will be allotted a seat in MBBS at a government medical college since the cutoff for General category is usually higher (around 500+ marks). Even so, you might still have some hope in private medical colleges if you have satisfied their individual eligibility criteria. You might as well consider attempting BDS (Dentistry), BHMS (Homeopathy), BAMS (Ayurveda), or BPT (Physiotherapy) courses since they have a low cutoff.

With 295 marks in NEET 2024, it's very hard to get admission in a government BAMS college, particularly under the All India Quota (AIQ), where the cutoffs in government Ayurvedic colleges are generally 400+ for General and 350+ for Reserved ones.

Yes, you can use NEET, KCET, and JEE together, but only after 2nd PUC (12th standard), as these examinations need a 10+2 qualification or equivalent appearing status. As you are in 1st PUC now, you can begin preparation for all three exams, but you will be eligible to appear for them only in your 2nd PUC year (next year). NEET is for medical studies, JEE for engineering, and KCET is for Karnataka-origin admissions in medical (except for MBBS/BDS) as well as in engineering colleges. Concentrate hard on fundamentals in Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Biology to get good scores.

If you don't appear in the NEET exam or you are not eligible, going for DHMS (Diploma in Homeopathic Medicine and Surgery) is the best choice. DHMS is a 4-year Diploma degree in homeopathy with subjects Materia Medica, Anatomy, Physiology, Pathology, and Homeopathic Pharmacy.

With 364 marks in NEET 2024 and a General category from Punjab, a government medical college seat for MBBS is quite impossible with high cutoffs. But you could have a shot at BDS (Dental) or AYUSH courses (BAMS, BHMS, BUMS) in government or semi-government colleges. In MBBS, you could opt for private medical colleges in Punjab, where admissions are possible either through state quota or management quota. Monitor state counseling rounds, cutoff trends, and stray vacancy rounds for any chances. Look at other states' private colleges if you are flexible.

In 2023, the NEET cutoff for the general category was 720–137 for admission to the Bachelor of Homeopathic Medicine and Surgery (BHMS) programme at Homoeopathy University, Jaipur.
