My neet 2025 marks are 403 can I get a free seat for mbbs

Dear student,

With 403 marks in NEET 2025 , your chances of getting a free (government) MBBS seat depend mainly on your category and home state .

If you're from the General or EWS category , it's very unlikely—government college cutoffs usually stay above 550+ .

If you're OBC , it's still a bit low—most cutoffs are in the 530–590 range.

For SC/ST candidates , there’s a slim chance in some states, especially for ST category , where cutoffs can go down to around 400–480 .

You can still get a seat in private colleges , though it won’t be a free one. Some private institutes may offer scholarships or EWS fee waivers , but those are limited.

Your best bet is to apply through state counselling and explore reserved quota options if applicable.

Let me know your category and state , and I can help you more specifically.

Hello aspirant,

The score of 403 is not sufficient to gain seat in a government medical college, especially if you come from general category. But if you are from reserved category there may be some chances. And you should also take in consideration private colleges if you really want to pursue mbbs. Otherwise you can go for other courses like dental, ayurveda and Homeopathy.

Regards.
