Rise among top scorers in NEET in past 2 years.

The NEET-UG 2021 has seen a remarkable growth of 83% in top scorers, scoring 700 and above marks. A total of 203 candidates has secured 700 & above out of 720 marks compared to last year, with only 111 candidates that touched this range.

The cut-off for MBBS/BDS admissions has not hiked up this year as compared to 2020. It is because of the drop in the number of candidates scoring in the range of 500-699 marks as seen below in the table

The top scorers are from Delhi, Rajasthan, UP, Maharashtra, Kerala, Bihar, West Bengal and Tamil Nadu. Out of which candidates from Rajasthan & UP are leading in a row that qualified the NEET UG 2021 exam.

For qualifying candidates, there are approximately 81,000 MBBS and 39,000 BDS seats available for this year, which has also increased 1.4%  from the previous year.

The competition is quite challenging, and hardly 8% would get admissions in medical and dental colleges. There would be many students who missed the train by a minimal mark. They must be sure that in the second attempt, they can clear exam the exam.

The reason behind close miss could be interpreted as

  1. Exam-taking strategy.
  2. Nervousness & confusion that lead to silly errors.
  3. A little less grip on concepts.
  4. Lack of enough practice.
