This NEET rank predictor turns your expected marks out of 720 into an estimated all-India rank range and checks them against the qualifying mark for your category. It is built on the 2025 and 2026 results — a hard paper where the topper scored 686 and an easy one where the topper scored 715 — so you get an honest band from one to the other rather than a single number. Free, no sign-up.

Your rank band
Enter your expected marks and press Predict my rank. You'll get an all-India rank band and a qualifying check for your category.
Read across a row. The low end of each band is what the marks were worth on the hard NEET UG 2025 paper (topper 686); the high end, on the easy NEET UG 2026 re-exam (topper 715). A 2027 paper will sit somewhere between.
| Marks (out of 720) | All-India rank (approximate) |
|---|---|
| 650–720 | 1 – 1,500 |
| 600–649 | 77 – 10,000 |
| 550–599 | 1,400 – 35,000 |
| 500–549 | 12,000 – 91,000 |
| 450–499 | 46,000 – 1,65,000 |
| 400–449 | 96,000 – 2,70,000 |
| 350–399 | 1,72,000 – 4,40,000 |
| 300–349 | 2,82,000 – 6,40,000 |
| 250–299 | 4,33,000 – 8,60,000 |
| 213–249 | 6,24,000 – 10,30,000 |
| 177–212 | 7,95,000 – 11,21,000 |
| 144–176 | 9,67,000 – 12,32,000 |
Approximate, based on 2024–2026 results and published analyses. The 2026 points at 700, 690, 650, 600 and 500 are NTA’s published counts of candidates at or above those scores; the rest are approximate. Not an official NTA table.

Qualifying NEET UG makes you eligible for counselling; it does not guarantee a seat. The cutoff is a percentile, so the marks it translates to change every year.
| Category | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 | 2026 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| General / EWS (50th percentile) | 720–137 | 720–162 | 686–144 | 715–213 |
| OBC / SC / ST (40th percentile) | 136–107 | 161–127 | 143–113 | 212–177 |
| General-PwD (45th percentile) | 136–121 | 161–144 | 143–127 | 212–194 |

BrainStride is an AI tutor for JEE, NEET and Olympiad preparation that runs a 20-minute diagnostic, maps your weak chapters and writes a daily plan, with every solution checked by teachers. This NEET rank predictor is the free, no-account part of that.
NEET UG has a single paper for everyone, so rank depends directly on marks: 180 compulsory questions, 720 marks, +4 for a correct answer and −1 for a wrong one. We use two marks-vs-rank curves — one fitted to the hard 2025 paper, one to the easy 2026 re-exam, with about 20 lakh candidates appearing — and read each at 10 marks either side of your score. The band runs from the best of those readings to the worst.
Because the last two papers could hardly have been more different. NEET UG 2025 was hard: the topper scored 686 and the General qualifying mark was 144. The NEET UG 2026 re-exam of 21 June — held after the 3 May paper was cancelled — was easy: two candidates scored 715, NTA counted 1,492 candidates at 650 or above and 10,160 at 600 or above, and the General qualifying mark jumped to 213. The same 650 marks meant roughly rank 75 in 2025 and roughly 1,500 in 2026. A single curve would be wrong in one of those years, so the tool shows both ends.
It compares your marks with the NEET UG 2026 qualifying mark for your category — 213 for General and EWS, 194 for General-PwD, 177 for OBC, SC, ST and their PwD candidates. In 2025 those marks were 144, 127 and 113, which shows how far the line moves with the paper. It does not estimate a category rank, because that depends on each year's category-wise counts, which we don't guess.

After you get a band
If your marks sit close to your category’s qualifying mark, accuracy matters more than attempting more questions. Every wrong answer costs five marks against a correct one.
Between 450 and 600 marks, 50 marks can halve or double your rank. That is ten questions right instead of wrong — often inside two or three Biology chapters.
Biology is 90 of the 180 questions. Tag your last three mock mistakes by chapter and cause, and fix the NCERT lines you keep misreading before adding new material.
Use the average of your last three full-length mocks, not your best one. A band that moves up across weeks is the signal worth trusting.

The NEET rank predictor gives a band, not a result. The low end of the band is what your marks were worth on the hard NEET UG 2025 paper and the high end on the easy 2026 re-exam, using NTA’s published 2026 counts where they exist. A 2027 paper will land somewhere between. Treat the band as a planning number and check official ranks only on neet.nta.nic.in.
About rank 1,350 on the hard NEET UG 2025 paper and about 10,200 on the easy 2026 re-exam, where NTA counted 10,160 candidates at 600 or above — so the predictor shows a band across that range. In 2024, another easy paper, 600 was roughly rank 70,000. Enter your exact marks to see the band for your score.
The NEET UG qualifying cutoff for General and EWS candidates is the 50th percentile. In the 2026 re-exam that was 213 marks out of 720 — up from 144 in 2025, 162 in 2024 (revised result) and 137 in 2023 — because the paper was easy. OBC, SC and ST candidates need the 40th percentile: 177 marks in 2026, 113 in 2025. The 2027 figures depend on that year’s paper.
No. Qualifying NEET UG only makes you eligible for counselling. About 11.2 lakh candidates qualified in 2026 and 12.4 lakh in 2025, and India has a little over 1.1 lakh MBBS seats, so seat chances depend on your rank, category, quota and fees. Government MBBS seats usually need a rank far higher than the qualifying mark.
Because NEET is marked on raw scores with no normalisation across years, so difficulty moves the whole table. 2024 was easy (17 full scorers after the revised result), 2025 was hard (topper 686, General cutoff 144) and the 2026 re-exam was easy again (topper 715, General cutoff 213). 650 marks was roughly rank 29,000 in 2024, 75 in 2025 and 1,500 in 2026.
The NEET rank predictor shows an all-India rank band and checks your marks against the 2026 qualifying mark for your category. It does not calculate a category rank, because that depends on how many candidates of each category score above you in a given year, which is not published in advance. Official category ranks come with the NTA result.
No. The NEET rank predictor runs in your browser and does not store or send the marks or category you enter. You do not need an account or an email address. If you want a study plan built around your score, the free BrainStride diagnostic is a separate, optional step.
Qualifying marks and the 2026 score counts are from NTA’s published results. The marks-vs-rank curves are our approximation from those and from published analyses, not an NTA table.
Find where your NEET marks are leaking — 20 minutes, free. The diagnostic names the chapters costing you rank and writes the plan that closes them.
