Last year, for the NEET PG 2020 exam, NBE revised its cut offs in July. The revised cut off was published on July 14, whereas the result was declared on January 30. The step was taken in order to fill vacant seats.
The initial and revised NEET PG 2020 cut offs were as follows.
| Category | Qualifying percentile – Initial | Cut Off score (out of 1200) – Initial | Qualifying percentile – Revised | Cut Off score (out of 1200) – Revised |
| General and EWS | 50th percentile | 366 | 30th percentile | 275 |
| SC/ST/OBC | 40th percentile | 319 | 20th percentile | 230 |
| UR – PH | 45th percentile | 342 | 25th percentile | 252 |
For the PG NEET 2019, the revised cut off was released on May 7, more than 3 months after the result.
The initial and revised NEET PG 2019 cut offs were as follows.
| Category | Qualifying percentile – Initial | Cut Off score (out of 1200) – Initial | Qualifying percentile – Revised | Cut Off score (out of 1200) – Revised |
| General and EWS | 50th percentile | 340 | 30th percentile | 313 |
| SC/ST/OBC | 40th percentile | 295 | 20th percentile | 270 |
| UR – PH | 45th percentile | 317 | 25th percentile | 291 |
As can be seen, in the year 2020, the cut percentile was cut down by 20 percentiles, whereas it was only 6 percentiles in the year 2019.
Now there are 3 questions in the minds of every PG NEET aspirant, or at least those who unfortunately could not meet the qualifying cut off are:
- Will NBEMS published a revised cut off for NEET PG 2021?
- If yes then when?
- And what will be the revised cut off be?
Now until now, there is no official announcement to answer these questions.
However, as can be seen from past years, if a number of seats remain vacant then NBEMS is highly likely to announce revised cut offs. What the revised cut offs will be, shall depend on how many seats are vacant. All eyes are thus now set on the NEET PG 2021 rank release, and MD/MS counselling.
