New Delhi: As the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) 2025 has been conducted this month, aspirants are eager to know where they might stand in the competition based on their expected scores. While the official results are yet to be released, previous trends and expert analysis can provide an accurate prediction of the expected rank for this score.
Expected Rank for 400 Marks in NEET 2025
Based on the previous year’s data, candidates scoring around 400 marks in the NEET UG 2025 exam as All India Rank (AIR) between 1,10,000 and 1,50,000. However, this estimate can vary slightly depending on several factors, like:
- Difficulty level of the 2025 exam
- Number of students appeared
- Normalisation and tie-breaking policies
- Overall performance trend across the country
As per the reports, the exam was relatively tough this year, so the rank for 400 marks may slightly improve, as the cut off will go down.
Chances of MBBS Admission at 400 marks
Although a score of 400 is commendable, still securing a government MBBS seat with this score can be challenging, especially under the All India quota (IAQ). However, there are still options available:
- State Quota Seats: Some state government colleges, particularly in less competitive states, may offer MBBS program seats at this score under the 85% state quota.
- Private Medical Colleges: The MBBS admission is possible in several private colleges with 400 marks.
- Deemed Universities: These universities often have higher intake capacities and may take students with 400 marks or below.
- BDS and AYUSH Courses: These fields have slightly lower cutoff marks, increasing the chances of admission.
