It's a Question of your Career!

The cutoff for the B.Sc.–M.Sc. Forensic Science dual degree course at NFSU depends on your marks in the NFAT entrance test.

For the general category, students with around 38.5 marks got admission in 2023. Some students even got in with 28 marks in the final rounds.

For the OBC-NCL category, the cutoff was also around 28 marks.

So, if you have scored above 38 in general or above 28 in OBC, you have a good chance to get a seat at NFSU.

The cutoffs may change slightly each year based on the number of students and difficulty of the paper.

Hello Neha,

With a NEET 2025 score of 337, 84 percentile, an AIR of 344243, and an OBC rank of 164433, you may find it difficult to secure a government MBBS seat in South India, especially in Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, or Kerala where OBC cutoffs generally higher in these states. You still have options in:

• Private Medical Colleges (management/NRI quota)
• Deemed Universities.
• You could look at BDS, AYUSH (BAMS, BHMS, etc.), or paramedical options as well.

Always check with your State level counselling (like, KEA, TN Medical Selection etc.) for the latest cutoffs and seat matrix. Also watch out for Mop-Up and Stray Vacancy rounds as cut off may drop a few points.

With 308 marks in NEET 2025 and SC category, it is very difficult to get a seat in a government BDS college. Usually, SC category students need around 380 to 430 marks to get BDS in a government college.

But still, if the cut-off goes down this year or some seats remain vacant, you may have a very small chance in the mop-up or stray vacancy rounds.

You can get admission in private BDS colleges with 308 marks, especially under SC quota. Many private colleges accept students with lower scores.

You should take part in all counselling rounds. You can also think about doing B.Sc. in allied health sciences or other medical-related courses, or try NEET again next year for a better score.

With a BCECE PCB rank of 6183 and EWS rank of 835, you have a good chance to get admission in government colleges in Bihar for courses like B.Sc. Nursing, B.Pharmacy, Medical Lab Technology, and Biotechnology.

In previous years, EWS and general category cutoffs for these courses were usually between 3000 to 7000 ranks. Your rank fits well in that range, especially for EWS category.

So yes, you can get a seat in government colleges through BCECE 2025 counselling, depending on your preferred course and seat availability in each round.

Hello Aspirant,

With a comprehensive rank of 394 and a specific rank of 296 in DUVASU Mathura in the general category, your eligibility for a free (merit) seat will depend on the specific course cutoffs in the current admission cycle. Course specific cutoffs can differ - for example, the general category cutoff for B.V.Sc. & A.H. is usually much lower (top 100-150). However, you do have a legitimate chance to obtain a merit seat in less popular courses like B.Sc. (Hons.) Biotech or Industrial Microbiology. Make sure you monitor the official counselling announcement and seat allotment rounds.

Hello. If you got a low score in CUET, don’t worry. You still have many options.

You can apply to colleges that have low CUET cut-offs. Some state and private universities accept students with low scores. You just need to find the right college.

You can also look for private colleges that offer admission through management quota. These colleges do not focus only on CUET scores, but the fees may be a bit higher.

Some private universities also give admission directly based on your 12th marks or their own entrance test. You can check those too.

Another option is to join a diploma or skill-based course in fields like IT, healthcare, design, or media. Later, you can move to a degree course.

If you are very serious about a dream college or course, and your family agrees, you can take a gap year, prepare again, and try to score better next time.

You don’t need to panic. Many students build successful careers even after scoring low in entrance exams.

To take admission in Allahabad University in 2025, you must apply through CUET UG. The admission process started on 30 June 2025 and the last date to register is 15 July 2025.

First, you have to register on the Samarth portal by uploading your CUET admit card, 10th and 12th marksheets, photo, signature, and caste certificate if needed.

After CUET results are declared, you have to choose your preferred course and pay the registration fee. Only after this, you will be able to take part in counselling and get a seat.

Hello Anshuman!!!
You have gotten 86% in 10th, which is a good score. 70% in graduation is not the best but decent. But the main problem is your 12th score which is 62%.

You would be already aware that the Top IIMs (BLACKI) give a big emphasis on your academic score. Let me tell you one example of IIM Ahmedabad,
According to a research i read a few days ago, in IIM Ahmedabad, 70.8% of students has 90+ percent in 12th, 25.8% has 80-90 percent and around 3.8% has less than 80% with the bracket of 60-69 having only 0.26% students of the total batch. Nearly same is the case of the other top IIMs like IIM Bangalore, IIM Calcutta, IIM Lucknow, IIM Kozhikode and IIM Indore.

Statistically, getting into these TOP IIMs is possible with 62% in 12th is possible (0.26% has done it) but practically you cannot get into these TOP IIMs unless you top the CAT exam.

See, I don't wish to dishearten or demotivate you but I wish to tell you the truth. Although the probability of you getting into these TOP IIMs is very less, but trying is better than doing nothing. You have a good score in 10th which will certainly help you. The least you could do is try your best.

My advice would be that you should not focus on these things like "Will I get top IIM" or negative talk like " I got low marks I won't qualify" etc. The main focus should be on your preparation. Give 100% in your preparation because that's the only thing in your hand. You can't change your 10th/12th/Graduation scores but you can put some more effort in your preparation which would certainly help to get better percentile.

Keep working hard and give your best. You might surprise yourself!!! And if not BLACKI, there are many other good colleges like FMS, MDI, newer IIMs etc.
