What a rank of 25,000 means
A government MBBS seat through All India Quota or your state quota is realistic for General students. 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 37 marks at this rank. In NEET that's about 7 questions, which is why a score that felt good in 2025 would have meant a much lower rank in 2026.
