NEET 2025 is expected to take place on May 4, 2025. Based on previous trends, the cutoff scores may rise compared to earlier years. In NEET 2024, over 20 lakh students appeared for the exam, increasing the level of competition. Here is the estimated cutoff for NEET 2025:

General (UR) category: 550–580 marks
OBC category: 530–560 marks
SC category: 400–450 marks
ST category: 350–400 marks

The number of candidates scoring above 600 marks in 2024 was higher, showing improved overall performance. The difficulty level of NEET 2024 was also slightly higher, and a similar trend is likely in 2025. This may further impact the cutoff scores.

Expected NEET 2025 Cutoff

The actual NEET cutoff 2025 will depend on factors like exam difficulty, the number of candidates appearing, and overall performance. Below is an estimated cutoff to help you set a target for your preparation.

Expected NEET 2025 Cutoff (Out of 720 Marks)

Category	Expected Cutoff Marks	Expected Percentile
General (UR)	550 - 580	95 - 97
OBC	530 - 560	94 - 96
SC	400 - 450	85 - 90
ST	350 - 400	80 - 85
General-PH	450 - 480	90 - 93
OBC-PH	420 - 450	85 - 90
SC-PH	320 - 350	70 - 80
ST-PH	280 - 320	60 - 70

Understanding Cutoff Marks and Percentile:

Cutoff Marks: The minimum marks required to qualify for admission.
Percentile: Indicates how well a candidate performed compared to others. A 95 percentile means the candidate performed better than 95% of all test-takers.

Expected NEET 2025 BDS Cutoff

Category	Expected BDS Cutoff Marks	Expected Percentile
General (UR)	550 - 570	97 - 98
OBC	520 - 540	95 - 97
SC	380 - 420	85 - 90
ST	350 - 380	80 - 85
General-PH	420 - 450	90 - 92
OBC-PH	390 - 420	85 - 90

These expected cutoff scores will help you strategize your preparation effectively. Keep track of official announcements for accurate figures.

NEET 2024 Cutoff Release

The National Testing Agency (NTA) declared the revised NEET 2024 cutoff on the same day it issued the re-revised scorecards on 26 July 2024. Compared to the NEET cutoff declared on 4 June 2024 according to the NEET 2024 result the passing marks have been cut down by two for every category.

Keeping this in mind, it can be said that the NEET 2024 qualifying cutoff has gone up for each category from the previous year as more students are scoring higher marks this year. Thus, it is very much possible that demand for passing marks, the NEET 2024 cutoff for government MBBS colleges, is also going to increase.

The NTA has released the NEET 2024 qualifying marks, however, the NEET government cut-off for admission to various government and private medical and dental colleges will be declared by the state counselling committees after the NEET 2024 counselling schedule which begins on 14-Aug-2024. The MCC has formally come out with the entire counselling schedule and procedure.
