We started with your NEET score of 355 and used our NEET rank predictor to estimate your All India Rank. Then we filtered our database of 780+ MBBS colleges against the latest MCC round 1 AIQ closing ranks (2022, 2023, 2024) and grouped them into three buckets so you know where you stand. Switch the category toggle above to see the list re-sorted for OBC, EWS, SC, or ST reservation.
Cutoff data is from the official MCC counselling allotment PDFs. NIRF ranks (where shown) are from the 2025 NIRF medical college ranking. Founded year, parent university, and the 1-line college description come from Wikipedia and Wikidata.
This list covers All India Quota (AIQ) — 15% of seats in state government colleges plus all deemed/central seats — filled centrally by MCC. For State Quota (the other 85%), cutoffs vary by state. Treat AIQ as your starting point and cross check with your home-state counselling authority.
Service bond can change the real cost of a seat
Each card above shows the state service bond that binds the college. Tamil Nadu has a 5-year rural service bond, Uttarakhand wants Rs 1 crore if you opt out, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh have no UG bond at all. Before you finalise a seat, read our state-wise NEET MBBS bond policy guide to see what the next 1 to 5 years after MBBS will look like.
With 355 marks your predicted All India Rank is around 8.5L. For General category, government MBBS through AIQ is unlikely at this rank. Your realistic options are private MBBS, deemed universities, or state quota seats. Reserved categories (SC, ST especially) still have government options at this rank.
355 is in the mid range of NEET scores. While it does not guarantee a government MBBS for General category, it opens up reserved category seats, private MBBS, and deemed universities. You can also push your score up by 30-50 marks with focused 60-90 day prep on weak chapters.
Our NEET rank predictor estimates your AIR at approximately 8.5L with a confidence band of 7.22L – 9.78L. The predictor is calibrated against publicly released NEET 2024 and 2025 result distributions. Year-on-year shifts in the candidate pool can move the rank by 10 to 15 percent for the same score.
Government MBBS colleges accepting candidates around AIR 8.5L are listed in the Safe and Realistic buckets above. The list updates when you change the category toggle. Top picks at most score levels include state government medical colleges in your home state via AIQ 15% quota, plus reserved seats nationally for SC, ST, OBC, and EWS candidates.
Reserved categories (OBC, SC, ST, EWS) accept higher AIR numbers because the candidate pool is smaller. For the same college, the SC closing rank is typically 4-7× the General closing rank, and ST even higher. Use the category toggle above to see your specific college list. Our predictor applies MCC category multipliers calibrated against historical closings.
The decision depends on your category, target college, and family circumstances. If your AIR (8.5L) does not get you into a government MBBS and private MBBS is out of budget, a focused drop year with a 100-150 mark improvement is realistic with the right prep. Take real NEET mock test simulations on neet.training to see if your accuracy trajectory supports the goal before deciding.
AIIMS and JIPMER run their own counselling separate from MCC AIQ, so their closing ranks shown above are AIIMS-internal merit ranks (NEET-converted), not AIQ ranks. AFMC has its own selection process after NEET qualification. They are included in our list for completeness, but check the official AIIMS and AFMC notifications for application steps.
