What 480 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 (490) would move you to about rank 57,270, which is 6,789 places higher. In NEET that's just three more correct answers, or avoiding a few careless mistakes.

These are estimates based on NEET 2025 and 2026 results. Your official rank comes from NTA. Use this to plan, not to fix counselling choices.
