Hello aspirant,

NEET cutoff is the minimum qualifying marks to be obtained to pass the NEET entrance exam . NEET UG 2020 cutoff for general category candidates is 50th percentile. Last year, NEET cutoff scores for general category was 147 and for NEET 2019 was 134. It is general trend that every year cutoff increases. So, the cut off for qualify NEET 2021 will be around 160 marks for attending counselling.
You have to qualify for NEET, to attend counselling. Colleges are allotted after counselling.

Hope this helps!!
All the best!!

Hello aspirant
Hope you are doing good

See , the candidates for NEET exam increases every year and so does the competition and with such low marks i don't think you'll get bds even in a private college.You should prepare for the exam in a such a manner that you'll be confident that you'll score the desired marks.

Furthermore , you belong to general category , so , you have to score good otherwise you'll not be selected. Your aim should be atleast 450-500+ in order to get a government college for BDS.

Here's a link from which you can check previous year cut offs
