Direct Admission in MBBS After Low NEET Score – What Are the Options?

Scoring low in NEET can be disappointing, but it does not mean your dream of becoming a doctor is over. If you have qualified NEET by meeting the minimum percentile, you are still eligible to apply for direct admission in MBBS through various alternative pathways.

One of the most common options is admission through the management quota in private medical colleges. These seats have comparatively lower cut-offs than government colleges but come with higher tuition fees. Students must participate in state counseling processes to secure these seats legally.

Another option is the NRI quota, available in many private and deemed universities. Although the fees are significantly higher, competition is usually lower compared to general merit seats.

Students can also explore deemed universities and participate in mop-up or stray vacancy rounds, where chances of admission increase due to vacant seats.

It is important to remember that NEET qualification is mandatory for all MBBS admissions in India. Always verify college approval from NMC and avoid unauthorized agents.

With proper guidance and timely counseling participation, direct admission in MBBS after a low NEET score is still achievable.
