Answer Key से अपना Score कैसे Calculate करें?
Score = (Correct × 4) – (Wrong × 1) + (Unattempted × 0)
Example: 150 correct, 20 wrong, 10 unattempted = (150×4) – (20×1) = 580/720
Result के बाद क्या करें — Next Steps
• AIIMS INI CET: Separate entrance for AIIMS & JIPMER
• State-Level Exams: MH-CET, KCET, AP EAMCET etc. (check deadlines!)
• BAMS/BHMS/BDS: Lower cutoff par excellent career options
• Nursing (B.Sc): Growing field with high demand
• Allied Health Sciences: Physiotherapy, Radiology, MLT etc.
Students Reactions & Expert Analysis
• Majority: "Biology easy tha, Physics ne time khaaya" — most common reaction
• Toppers' View: "NCERT pakka tha toh Chemistry and Biology scoring tha. Physics numericals lengthy the par doable"
• Average Students: "Physics mein 35+ karna mushkil tha, Chemistry okay, Biology ne bacha liya"
• Time Management: "3:20 hours sufficient tha agar Biology pehle solve kiya toh"
• Paper ka difficulty level NEET 2025 se slightly tougher tha — especially Physics
• Expected topper score: 710-715/720 (because of some ambiguous questions)
• Good score benchmark: 600+ is excellent, 550+ is very good, 500+ gives good options
• Cutoff prediction: General qualifying cutoff similar to 2025 (~164 marks / 50th percentile)
• New pattern hint: More application-based questions this year — rote learning se kam faayda

Counselling process kaise hoga?
Result ke baad two parallel processes chalte hain: (1) MCC (All India Quota) — 15% AIQ seats + deemed/central universities ke liye mcc.nic.in par register karein. (2) State Counselling — 85% state quota seats ke liye apne state counselling portal par. Dono mein preference filling → seat allotment → acceptance → reporting hota hai. Multiple rounds hote hain — patience rakhein।
