The lowest qualifying cut-off was seen for the Medical Group, at 170 for the NEET-SS 2025. This shows that, if needed, the qualifying marks for NEET PG 2026 examination may also be reduced by NBEMS, allowing aspirants with low marks to study MD/MS courses. 

The NBEMS issued an official notification on September 22, announcing a reduction in qualifying marks for the NEET-SS 2025 examination. The notice stated that the medical aspirants who secured 30th percentile in the examination have been deemed qualified now. The revised qualifying scores, out of 600, are 249 for Anaesthesiology, 254 for Critical Care Medicine, 247 for ENT, 175 for the Medical Group, 180 for Medical Oncology, 306 for Microbiology, 325 for Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 256 for Orthopaedics, 231 for Paediatrics, 238 for Pathology, 213 for Pharmacology, 302 for Psychiatry, 315 for Radiodiagnosis, 285 for Respiratory Medicine, and 243 for the Surgical Group.

The Indian Medical Association Medical Student Network (IMA MSN), Madhya Pradesh, also wrote to the Union Minister and raised concerns over “discrepancies and inconsistencies perceived in the examination results.”

One of the major concerns raised by students is that they may not be able to accurately calculate their scores even if the answer key is released. Candidates would likely require a comprehensive and readable master question paper booklet to enable independent cross-verification, as the absence of such a document could make the process tedious and prone to errors.
