With a NEET 2025 score of 476, an All India Rank of 82,194, and an SC category rank of 2,517, you have a fair chance of getting an MBBS seat in a government medical college in Tamil Nadu under the state quota. In previous years, the cutoff scores for SC category candidates in Tamil Nadu for government colleges have generally ranged between 450 and 500 marks. Your score places you close to the middle of that range, which puts you in a competitive position.
Government medical colleges in Tamil Nadu such as those in Salem, Thanjavur, Vellore, and Tirunelveli often have SC cutoff scores near your mark, especially in the later rounds of counselling. While the more popular institutions in Chennai or Coimbatore may have slightly higher closing scores, you could still be eligible for seats in many respected colleges, particularly after the first or second round of counselling when some higher-ranked candidates opt out or take seats elsewhere.
