Can I get MBBS with 500 marks in NEET?

Yes, you can get an MBBS seat with 500 marks in NEET. It is easier if you belong to a reserved category or apply through your state quota. For students in the general category, getting a government seat with this score is more difficult, but still possible in some states where competition is not very high or if your state rank is good.

Category You Belong To:

• If you are from a reserved category (like OBC, SC, ST, EWS), your chances are higher because the cut-off for these categories is usually lower than the general category.

State Quota vs All India Quota:

• Under the state quota (85% seats reserved for state students), you may have a better chance, especially in states where competition is slightly lower.
  Under the All India Quota (15% seats open for all states), 500 marks might not be enough for a government medical college, especially in highly competitive states.

Type of College:

• Government Medical Colleges: Difficult but not impossible, mainly for reserved categories or less competitive states.
• Private Medical Colleges: 500 marks is usually enough to get a seat in many private colleges.
• Deemed Universities / Management Quota: Available but fees may be higher.

Competition Every Year:
Cut-offs change every year based on how many students appeared, difficulty level, and number of available seats.
