You may be able to gain admission to a government MBBS college if you fall into the OBC category and have a NEET score of 503, but this will depend on the state in which you are applying. In general, especially for more well-known states, the cutoff scores for government medical colleges can be rather high. In states with lower cutoffs or in certain private medical colleges subject to government quotas, your score may be competitive. To determine your chances more precisely, it is imperative that you review the specific cutoff patterns for various states and universities.

It would be difficult to get a B Category seat at a private medical college in Andhra Pradesh if you scored 275 on the NEET 2024 and you are an OBC. There is fierce rivalry for B Category seats, which are normally filled on the basis of merit. However, admission prospects are contingent upon seat availability, college-specific cutoffs, and the year-end cutoffs. In addition to looking into private colleges where you would have a greater chance of getting a seat under management quota, it is advisable to take part in the state counselling procedure.

Depending on the state's cutoff trends, you stand a good possibility of obtaining an MBBS seat through the home state quota with a NEET score of 599, especially at government medical colleges. In many government and private medical institutes, you are likely to meet the cutoff in states like West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, and Maharashtra. Your prospects are also better for the All India Quota (AIQ), although the cutoffs are usually higher and the competition is fiercer. It is necessary to engage in the state and AIQ counselling processes.

Yes, Pathology is also studied under MBBS. It is a crucial component of the MBBS curriculum. During the MBBS program, students are introduced to the fundamental concepts of pathology, which include the study of disease mechanisms, tissue changes, and laboratory diagnostics. This foundational knowledge helps future doctors understand how diseases affect the body, interpret diagnostic tests, and make informed clinical decisions.

Yes, candidates can pursue some Pathology courses without MBBS like undergraduate programs such as a Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Medical Laboratory Technology or Clinical Pathology which provide foundational knowledge and practical skills in pathology. Additionally, Diploma courses like the Diploma in Medical Laboratory Technology (DMLT) or Certificate courses in clinical and medical laboratory techniques offer specialised training without requiring an MBBS. However, an MBBS is necessary for MD Pathology.
