    THE NEET UG examination is conducted by NTA (National Testing Agency), and the competition level seems to be rising each year, so it becomes difficult for aspirants to understand the past trends and how their NEET score converts into rank. Medical aspirants can also use free tools like NEET Rank Predictor 2026 to know the accurate rank based on their NEET 2026 score. This article will provide detailed NEET exam trends from the year 2022 to 2026, covering exam difficulty level, number of candidates, and predicted score vs rank in NEET 2006 based on the past data. So let us have a look:

    -

    This table compares the total number of candidates registered, appeared, qualified, and qualified to appear in the NEET exam across the years.

    • Registration trend seems to be increasing from approximately 18.72 Lakhs students in 2022 to 22.75 Lakhs students in 2026.

    • There is also a rise in the number of candidates appearing for the NEET exam from 2022, reaching its highest in 2024 and slightly decreasing in 2025. The total number of candidates who appeared for the NEET 2026 was 22,05,035.

    • The qualifying rate is around 56 percent from 2022-2024. There are slightly fewer qualifiers in 2025 because of the extreme difficulty level of the exam. As the result of NEET 2026 is awaited to be declared so we don't have the qualified candidates' data for the NEET 2026.

    Score vs Rank analysis is dependent on the two factors: number of candidates appeared for the examination (if the number of candidates who have appeared for the examination increases the cutoff also increases) and the difficulty level of the paper (if the difficulty level of the paper decreases, the cutoff increases).

    On the basis of the available score vs rank data, we will determine the NEET 2026 rank.

    • 700 score in NEET provided 97 rank in NEET 2022, and the same score provided 347 rank in NEET 2023, and 1,626 rank in NEET 2024.

    • The rank for the same score varies over the years, depending on the number of candidates and exam difficulty level.

    • Similarly, securing around 680 marks in 2022 provided a rank of 912, and the same score provided a rank of 1,742 in 2023, and a rank of 7,842 in 2024. The predicted NEET 2026 rank for this score is approximately 50th rank.

    • Securing around 650 marks in 2022 provided a rank of 4677, and the same score provided a rank of 7288 in 2023, a rank of 27368 in 2024, and a rank of 71 in 2025. The predicted NEET 2026 rank for this score is approximately 1000.

    • Securing around 600 marks in 2022 provided a rank of 21162, and the same score provided a rank of 29,348.00 in 2023, a rank of 77972 in 2024, and a rank of 1392 in 2025. The predicted NEET 2026 rank for this score is approximately 10,000.

There are times when people lose their limbs in an accident. In some other occasions, they are born without a limb or orthopaedic impairment. Orthotists and prosthetists play a crucial role in their lives with fixing them to assistive devices and provide mobility.
