What a rank of 100 means
This is AIIMS and top-government-college territory for most categories. 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, so use this as a first check, not a final answer.
The gap between an easy and a tough year is 31 marks at this rank. In NEET that's about 6 questions, which is why a score that felt good in 2025 would have meant a much lower rank in 2026.
These are estimates based on NEET 2025 and 2026 results. Your official rank comes from NTA. Use this to set a target, not to fix counselling choices.
