Dear student,

If you’ve scored 398 in NEET 2025 , your chances of getting a BDS seat at Government Dental College, Pudukkottai will mostly depend on your category .

In previous years, the cut-off for General category at this college was around 96,000 rank , which typically requires a score above 420–430 . So for General category, 398 may not be enough.

However, if you belong to the SC category , your chances are quite good. The SC cut-offs for BDS in Tamil Nadu government colleges have been in the 350–380 mark range, and your score is higher than that . So you could likely get a seat, depending on this year’s cut-off trends.
