Hello Mr. K Khamba,

Your daughter Kopui Modison has scored 379 marks in NEET 2025. You are Christian, so she can also apply to Christian minority colleges apart from government or private colleges.

With 379 marks, it is difficult to get an MBBS seat in government colleges under All India Quota, especially in general category. But if your daughter belongs to SC, ST or OBC category and applies through her state quota, then her chances may be better.

She can also apply to Christian minority colleges. These colleges reserve some seats for Christian students and the fees are lower compared to other private colleges.

She should apply for counselling in her home state, apply under All India Quota through MCC counselling, and also apply to Christian colleges like CMC Vellore, CMC Ludhiana, and Pondicherry Institute of Medical Sciences.

Please tell me your state and your daughter’s category so I can help you with a proper list of colleges where she can get admission.

Hey,

Tamil Nadu's NEET UG state merit rank list have not been released yet. The Directorate of Medical Education (Tamil Nadu) is expected to publish it in the last week of July 2025 (https://www.collegedekho.com/news/dme-tamil-nadu-neet-rank-list-2025-expected-release-date-67564/?utm_source=chatgpt.com) . Keep checking the official site tnmedicalselection.net for the exact announcement and to download once it's available.

Hello Aspirant,

Your NEET rank of 328948 and your ST (Plains) category from Assam will not allow you to get any MBBS seat in a government medical college under the State Quota as the ST Rastroc/ candidacy cut offs are usually between lower 1–1.5 lakh ranks in Assam. But, you might have chances in:

• Medical colleges in Assam (Private under ST Quota seats)
• BDS (Dental) courses in government/private colleges
• AYUSH courses (like BAMS/BHMS)

It is advisable to take part in state counselling & mop-up rounds and also state counselling for deemed universities if you are financially sound.

Hi! If you have scored 203 marks in NEET and you belong to the general category, then honestly It is not possible for you to get government college.   The cut-off for general category is usually much higher than what you have scored.You still have other options like you can try private medical colleges but they are very expensive.You can also try for BDS or other medical related courses.

Hello

Here is what your NEET rank (35,000), SC category, female, with Andhra Pradesh domicile, means for securing an MBBS seat in prominent government medical colleges in Andhra Pradesh

1. All India Quota (15%) – MCC Counselling

In recent years, the AIQ closing ranks for SC candidates have ranged from 1,14,000 (Round 2) to 1,30,000 (Round 3).

With a rank of 35,000, you are well within this range.

You have a very strong chance of securing an MBBS seat under the All India Quota.

2. Andhra Pradesh State Quota (85%)

a. Category-wise Cutoffs (Govt Colleges)

For SC (female) candidates under the AP state quota, the closing rank is around 2,16,000.

Your rank of 35,000 is much lower, so you are comfortably eligible for government medical colleges in Andhra Pradesh.

Immediately register for MCC AIQ counselling as soon as registration opens.

Apply for AP state quota counselling via Dr. NTR University of Health Sciences (state counselled seats).

Prepare your documents like SC certificate, AP domicile, NEET result, ID proof, etc.

OCI holders can appear for NEET-UG and are eligible for admission under the NRI/OCI quota in MBBS.

Required documents include your OCI card, passport, NEET scorecard, and possibly an Equivalence Certificate for foreign qualifications.

The fees is higher in NRI/OCI quota ranging from 39 to 40 lac annually.

State NEET counselling forms are released early to:

1. Start the process on time – States manage 85% of seats, so they begin early to avoid delays.

2. Collect student details – For documents, category, and eligibility.

3. Run smoothly with All India counselling – It helps avoid confusion by planning ahead.

4. Each state has its own schedule – They don’t need to wait for All India rounds to start.

So, it’s normal and helpful that state forms come out before or along with NEET AIQ counselling.

Hello

Hello aspirant,

This is a very common confusion among students who have appeared for NEET but don’t want to go for MBBS, BDS, or other doctor-related courses. Don’t worry  there are many other career options you can choose based on your interest, marks, and counselling rounds.

Even if you don’t want to become a doctor, you can still go for many NEET-based or biology related fields where NEET score may be used, or sometimes not even needed.

Some of the other Course options without NEET or with a Biology Background. If you’re not interested in clinical roles, you can explore:

1. BSc Nursing – A good option, available through a separate entrance or counselling. But some of the central colleges like AIIMS, AFMC, etc.You have to give the NEET, but if you want to take admission in a private or state college, you have to give their entrance exam.

2. BSc in Biotechnology / Microbiology / Biochemistry – Research and lab-based roles.

3. BSc Agriculture / Forestry / Horticulture – A Growing field with government and private jobs.

4. B.Pharm (Bachelor of Pharmacy) – Medicines, drug stores, and the pharma industry.

5. BMLT (Medical Lab Technology) – Hospital lab work and diagnostics.

6. Nutrition & Dietetics – Become a dietician you can  work in hospitals or open your own clinic .

7. Clinical Psychology / Forensic Science – For those interested in mental health or investigation roles.

Don’t be disheartened if you can’t or don’t want to become a doctor. The medical and life sciences field is vast, and there are many respected career options.

Best of luck!
