Important Details About OBC Cutoff

The 40th percentile means that candidates need to score more than 40% of the highest score obtained in the exam.
OBC candidates have better chances of securing a medical seat at lower marks compared to General category candidates due to the reserved category benefits.
The cutoff remains dynamic every year but usually stays close to this range.

In NEET 2025, scoring at least 113 marks qualified an OBC candidate for counseling. However, to get a government MBBS seat, higher scores are generally required, often around 550+ marks depending on the state and college preferences.
