NEET UG 2025 Cutoff
The NEET 2025 cutoff is the minimum score required for securing admission to MBBS, BDS, B.Sc (H) Nursing, BVSc & AH, BAMS, BSMS, BUMS, and BHMS courses.
The NEET UG cutoff marks vary based on factors such as the difficulty level of the exam, the number of candidates appearing, and seat availability in government and private medical colleges.
NEET UG 2024 Cutoff
Category | Cut off Score | No. of Candidates |
---|---|---|
UR/EWS | 720-164 | 1165904 |
OBC | 163-129 | 100769 |
SC | 163-129 | 34326 |
ST | 163-129 | 14478 |
NEET UG 2024 Cutoff is higher than expected this year with 164 as the minimum score limit for the General category, check out the detailed description of the cutoff table given below:
- For the Unreserved/EWS (UR/EWS) category, the cut-off percentile is the 50th percentile, with a cut-off score range of 720 to 164. The number of candidates in this category is 1,165,904.
- For the Other Backward Classes (OBC) category, the cut-off percentile is the 40th percentile, with a cut-off score range of 163 to 129. The number of candidates in this category is 100,769.
- For the Scheduled Caste (SC) category, the cut-off percentile is the 40th percentile, with a cut-off score range of 163 to 129. The number of candidates in this category is 34,326.
- For the Scheduled Tribe (ST) category, the cut-off percentile is the 40th percentile, with a cut-off score range of 163 to 129. The number of candidates in this category is 14,478.
NEET UG 2025 Cutoff (Expected)
Category | Expected Cut-off Score Range | Expected No. of Candidates |
---|---|---|
UR/EWS | 725 – 170 | 11,80,000 – 12,20,000 |
OBC | 169 – 135 | 1,02,000 – 1,05,000 |
SC | 169 – 135 | 34,500 – 36,000 |
ST | 169 – 135 | 14,500 – 15,500 |
Methodology We Used to predict NEET cut-off:
- Trend Analysis (Past Year Cutoffs):
- Compare NEET UG cutoffs from previous years to identify patterns.
- Observed that the cut-off has generally increased due to rising competition and higher difficulty levels.
- Candidate Pool Growth Estimation:
- NEET UG registrations have been increasing by 5-7% annually.
- Assumed a similar growth in the number of test-takers and qualifying candidates.
- Exam Difficulty Level Projection:
- The cutoff may increase slightly if NEET UG 2025 has a similar or slightly tougher paper than 2024.
- If it’s easier, the cutoff could be higher than expected.
- Reservation & Normalization Considerations:
- Kept percentile-based cutoff methodology in mind, ensuring realistic score predictions.
- Adjusted for potential variations in question difficulty and normalization effects.
Disclaimer: This is a prediction based on historical trends and estimated difficulty levels. The actual NEET UG 2025 cutoff may vary depending on factors like paper difficulty, number of test-takers, and normalization criteria.
So, Based on this methodology, we made a free NEET UG 2025 Cutoff Predictor without any login.
NEET UG Counselling 2025

Why is NEET UG Counselling Conducted?
NEET UG counseling is conducted to ensure a fair and transparent admission process for MBBS, BDS, BAMS, BUMS, BSMS, and other medical courses in India. Since NEET is the only entrance exam for medical admissions, counseling helps allocate seats based on merit, reservation policies, and eligibility criteria.
Key Reasons for Conducting NEET UG Counselling:
- Centralized Admission Process – Ensures uniformity in medical admissions across India.
- Seat Allocation – Distributes seats in government, private, and deemed universities based on NEET ranks.
- Reservation Implementation – Provides admissions for different categories as per government reservation policies.
- Prevention of Seat Blocking – Ensures candidates do not misuse the system by holding multiple seats.
- Multiple Quotas Management – Manages admissions under AIQ, State Quota, Management Quota, and NRI seats.
- Regulated by Authorities – Conducted by MCC for All India Quota and central institutions, while state authorities handle state quotas.
- Admissions Beyond MBBS/BDS – NEET scores are also used for B.Sc. Nursing and Veterinary courses.
Important Points
- NEET rank is the only basis for admission.
- Separate registrations required for AIQ and State counselling.
- Reservation rules apply as per government policies.
- Seat blocking is prevented – Candidates who don’t join after Round-2 may lose their security deposit.
- NEET scores are also used for B.Sc. (H) Nursing and BVSc & AH admissions.
