MP NEET 2026 Cutoff: Two Quota Types

1. All India Quota (AIQ): 15% Seats- The cutoff for AIQ seats is released by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) after the completion of the AIQ counselling process. The AIQ cutoff is based on the All India Rank of the candidate, NEET scores, and category. AIQ seats are open to candidates from all states.
2. State Quota: 85% Seats- The cutoff for 85% state quota seats is published by the Directorate of Medical Education (DME), Madhya Pradesh after the conclusion of the state-level counselling. State quota seats are restricted to MP domicile candidates only.

For mid-tier/newer government colleges (Rewa, Sagar, Vidisha, Ratlam, Datia, Shahdol, Satna, Seoni, Khandwa, Shivpuri, Chhindwara), a score in the 580–610 range may be competitive.

The NEET MP cutoff is influenced by several factors:
Number of NEET 2026 candidates applying for MP counselling
