In our earlier reports, we analysed the deemed medical colleges of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. In this article, Careers360 analysed NEET lowest rank vs the number of seats, for the deemed medical colleges of Maharashtra offering the MBBS degree. Our initial observation is that, unlike Tamil Nadu and Karnataka, few of Maharashtra’s deemed medical colleges showed a decrease in National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) cutoff rank in 2021 from the previous year.

The cut-off rank, shown in this article, is the lowest rank of a college from Round 1 or Round 2 of admission process for general category students.

Maharashtra Deemed Colleges Where Number Of Seats Remain The Same

Ten deemed medical colleges in Maharashtra, mentioned below, have the same number of seats over the last three years but the NEET cut off rank is quite different every year.

Deemed colleges of Tamil Nadu and Karnataka showed an increase in cut-off rank with no relation with the change in the seats available each year. But in case of Maharashtra, NEET cut-off rank decreased in 2021 for four deemed medical colleges. The colleges were- MGM Medical College in Aurangabad, Mahatma Gandhi Mission Institute of Health Sciences in Navi Mumbai, Datta Meghe Medical College in Nagpur and Symbiosis Medical College for Women in Pune.

Maharashtra Deemed Colleges Where Number Of Seats Changed

Maharashtra’s two deemed medical colleges had an increase in total number of seats in 2020- Dr DY Patil Medical College of Mumbai and Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College in Wardha.

Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College is a private medical institute where in 2020, they increased a total of 50 seats and the NEET cut-off rank increased by 122 per cent. But in the next year there was an increase of just 22 per cent while the number of seats remained the same.

Just like Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra too had a higher percentage of change in the cut-off rank when the number of medical seats increased in a college than when the same college had the same number of seats.

Hello,

Among nineteen thousand ranks, it's appreciable if you are able to top 1,000 to 5,000 ranks; that means 5% to 10% (600 and above marks) to secure your seats in top elite colleges or top-performing government colleges

Given the caste, community, and other qualifications, this will be appreciated.

Results may vary from individual to individual, but the above-mentioned stats are true.

Hope it helps with your query. Good luck.

Hello,

To get into a Delhi government medical college via NEET UG, a general candidate and an EWS candidate need higher scores (often 650-700+), while OBC/SC/ST scores are lower but still competitive, with specific marks varying by college and quota (State/AIQ).

I hope it will clear your query!!

Hello aspirant ,

If you want a diploma or degree in orthopedics through NEET 2026 , know that orthopedics as a separate UG medical course does not exist . Orthopedics is a specialization after MBBS or after BPT . To enter medical fields through NEET , you must first qualify NEET and get admission in MBBS . After MBBS , You can choose orthopedics during postgraduate training .Alternatively , you can do BPT through entrance exams like CET or NEET based counselling , and then specialize in orthopedics through internships and certifications.

Hello aspirant,

You cannot rely only on NEET preparation to clear TS EAPCET . NEET covers Physics and Chemistry deeply but TS EAPCET also includes Intermediate IPE syllabus strictly , with questions directly based on textbooks concepts and formulas. Biology is needed for NEET , while EAPCET needs strong Maths for engineering streams. If you plan to attempt both , prepare NEET concepts thoroughly and separately revise IPE-LEVEL Maths, Physics, Chemistry for EAPCET , along with previous year papers.
