What 420 marks means for you
Private and deemed MBBS, government BDS in some states, and BAMS/BHMS are the likely options. Category matters: OBC, SC and ST students get seats at much higher (worse) ranks than General students, and state quotas vary a lot from state to state.
Ten more marks (430) would move you to about rank 1,09,728, which is 10,679 places higher. In NEET that's just three more correct answers, or avoiding a few careless mistakes.
