The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) has lowered the qualifying percentile for NEET-SS 2025 from the 50th to the 30th percentile, as mandated by a Supreme Court order on September 17 and a directive from the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW) on September 22. This revised criterion stipulates that candidates scoring at or above the 30th percentile across all question paper groups have been deemed qualified.
Group-wise qualifying cut-off scores, out of a total of 600, have been announced for various medical specialties. Notably, the NBEMS has affirmed that the reduction in the qualifying percentile will not alter the group-specific ranks set on January 23, 2026. The examination board has reaffirmed that no new scorecards will be issued following this update, and the aggregate marks obtained in MBBS professional exams will be cross-checked against original documents.
Candidates found guilty of unfair means may face repercussions from NBEMS, the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC), or the counselling authority.
