NEET 2025 Expected Cut-off Revealed: NTA conducted NEET 2025 on May 4. Candidates who appeared for the exam will be provided with the NEET 2025 cut-off along with the NEET results, which will tentatively be released on June 14. This year, the difficulty level of the NEET exam ranged from moderate to challenging. As the exam was tough, it is expected that the NEET cut-off will be lower compared to previous years. 

NEET serves as a gateway to secure seats in MBBS, BDS, and other medical courses across Indian medical colleges. Every medical aspirant should meet the NEET qualifying cut-off to secure admission in colleges. The NEET cut-off is released separately for each category, namely General, OBC, ST, SC, and PwD.

Understanding the expected NEET 2025 cut-off scores helps aspirants to assess their chances of cracking NEET and securing admission in their preferred institute. For the most precise and up-to-date NEET cut-off details, candidates should visit the official website of NTA following the result announcement.

NEET 2025 Cut-off Overview

The NEET 2025 cut-off scores are crucial for admission to medical colleges. These scores determine the eligibility status of candidates for the NEET counselling rounds. For the All India Quota (AIQ) 15% seats, the MCC is responsible for releasing the cut-off, while the cut-off for the remaining 85% state quota seats is published by the respective state medical authorities.

Understanding NEET 2025 Cut-off Types

The NEET UG 2025 cut-off is a critical factor for candidates aiming to secure seats in medical institutions. The cut-off establishes the minimum scores required to meet the eligibility criteria for medical admission. NEET cut-offs are broadly classified into two categories: NEET Admission cut-off and NEET Qualifying cut-off.

  • NEET Admission Cut-off

The NEET admission cut-off is determined by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) and the respective state authorities. It represents the final rank or score at which candidates can get admission in MBBS, BDS, and other medical courses. These cut-offs vary based on medical institutions and are typically category-specific, reflecting the last rank at which seats will be allotted during the counselling process. Candidates can check these scores on the official websites of MCC or the respective state authorities.

  • NEET Qualifying Cut-off

The NEET qualifying cut-off is set by the NTA, and it indicates the minimum score required to qualify for the NEET exam. Unlike the admission cut-off, these marks are not specific to any particular institution but are essential for determining whether a candidate has cleared the medical entrance test. These scores are category-based. Candidates must log in to the NTA website to access the NEET qualifying cut-off along with the official result.

The NEET 2025 cut-off scores are expected to vary across different categories. The table below presents the NEET 2025 expected cut-off for different categories based on previous years’ trends and NEET 2025 exam analysis:

Key Factors Affecting NEET Cut-offs

The NEET cut-off scores are affected by several critical factors, leading to variations in the minimum marks required for medical admissions. These factors are:

  • Candidate Volume: A higher number of test-takers typically increases the cut-off score across all categories.

  • Exam Difficulty Level: If the question paper is particularly tough, the cut-off may drop, reflecting the overall lower performance of candidates. In contrast, an easy question paper increases the cut-off score.

  • Seat Availability: The total number of seats in medical institutions plays a significant role in determining the cut-off. More available seats can result in lower cut-off scores, or vice versa.

Past year NEET Cut-off Trends

Every year, NEET cut-off scores vary based on candidates’ category, reflecting shifts in competition and exam difficulty. Understanding these trends can help aspirants predict the current year’s cut-off score. The following table shows category-wise NEET cut-off scores for the past five years:
