Questions related to NEET

Have a question related to NEET ?

Hello,

For NEET MDS , here's the clarification regarding your category:

  1. Central List of OBC :  Your caste appears under OBC, but this is based on the central government's classification.

  2. Kerala Government List : In Kerala's list, you fall under the OEC-SC category, which is specific to the state's classification.

  3. NEET MDS Application :

    • Since NEET is a central-level exam, the classification that matters is based on the central government’s policies.
    • If you are applying for the central quota, you should select the OBC category as per the central list, as the state’s OEC-SC classification may not apply for NEET MDS.
    • If applying for state quota in Kerala, refer to Kerala's guidelines, which may accept your OEC-SC status.
  4. Consult Kerala Authorities : It's advisable to confirm with the Kerala State authorities or the NEET MDS helpdesk to ensure accurate selection based on the state and central quota policies.

Hope it helps !

Hello,

Based on your query about the NEET exam and the chance of securing admission to Osmania Medical College, Hyderabad, with a score of 600 marks from the OBC category, here's an overview based on previous year trends :

Osmania Medical College Overview:

  • Osmania Medical College is one of the most sought-after medical colleges in Telangana and has a significant number of applicants each year.
  • It offers both government and management quota seats, with the government quota seats being more competitive.

NEET 2023 Cutoff Trends for OBC Category :h

  • The NEET cutoff marks can vary slightly each year based on factors like the number of applicants, difficulty level of the exam, and available seats.
  • For government medical colleges in Telangana, including Osmania Medical College, the OBC category cutoff for state quota seats typically ranged between 570 and 600 marks in 2023. However, it’s essential to keep in mind that these cutoffs can vary based on the specific year.

  • A score of 600 marks in the OBC category generally places you in a strong position for securing a seat in Osmania Medical College, especially under the state quota.
  • It's important to note that the final cutoff will depend on the factors mentioned earlier. Your score is close to the cutoff range seen in previous years, so there is a good chance that you may get a seat at Osmania Medical College in the OBC category, but it is never 100% guaranteed.

In summary, with 600 marks in the OBC category, you have a good chance of securing admission in Osmania Medical College based on previous year data, but please confirm the exact cutoff once it is released for 2024.

Hope it helps !
