NEET UG 2024: New Tie-Breaking Rules
This year, NTA is implementing updated tie-breaking criteria for NEET 2024:
Old Rule: Previously, tie-breaking considered scores in biology, chemistry, and physics sequentially. If a tie remained, negative marks were factored in, followed by age, with the older candidate receiving the higher rank.
New Rule: Now, tie-breaking prioritizes higher marks in Biology, then Chemistry, and finally Physics. If a tie persists, eligible candidates will be selected through a computer-generated draw without human intervention.
Difference Between NEET 2024 Qualifying Cut Off and Admission Cut Off
It's important for NEET candidates to understand that the NEET cut off marks for qualifying and admission are distinct.
The NEET Qualifying Cut Off represents the minimum marks needed to qualify for the exam. Meeting this threshold makes candidates eligible for state and central counseling processes for admission to medical colleges. The NEET qualifying percentile is set by the NTA.
On the other hand, the NEET Admission Cut Off signifies the minimum marks or scores required for admission into MBBS or BDS courses at specific medical or dental colleges in India. This cut off is determined by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) and state authorities.
