Your NEET 2024 score of 439 with a state rank of 2800 has several factors influencing the chances of getting a government seat in Jammu and Kashmir for courses in B.V.Sc or BDS, like the category, state quota, and each institution's cut-off for that year. As past year's cutoffs from J&K indicate, students with higher ranks like the said have had their seats secured in government medical and dental colleges, though competition is quite stringent in B.V.Sc and BDS courses.For BDS, the cutoff in government colleges in Jammu and Kashmir is 450 marks (under a rank of 50,000) for colleges of Government Dental College, Srinagar. For B.V.Sc, the range of cutoff marks falls around 500-550 depending on the institution.In such a case, since your rank and marks seem to say that for a dental or veterinary course under state quota, you are likely to have more chances, but that depends on the competition and the specific reservation policies as well. It will be wise to continually check on official updates and cutoff lists throughout the counseling process.
