NEET-UG Qualifying Cutoffs (Category-wise)
Admission to BDS at S.J.M. Dental College & Hospital requires a valid, qualifying NEET-UG score. NEET qualification is defined by percentile, not a fixed score — the qualifying percentile is fixed every year, while the equivalent raw score moves with exam difficulty.
| Category | Minimum qualifying percentile |
|---|---|
| General / EWS | 50th percentile |
| OBC / SC / ST | 40th percentile |
| General-PwD | 45th percentile |
| SC / ST / OBC-PwD | 40th percentile |
Qualifying NEET only makes you eligible — it does not guarantee a seat. The actual closing rank for a BDS seat at S.J.M. Dental College & Hospital depends on your category, the counselling quota, the number of seats, and how many higher-ranked candidates pick this college ahead of you (explained below). Always confirm the current-year qualifying score on the official NTA NEET result.
Counselling Quotas, Rounds & Closing-Rank Guidance
BDS seats at S.J.M. Dental College & Hospital are filled through NEET-UG counselling across these quotas:
- •State / Government Quota — through Karnataka state counselling, at regulated (lower) fees.
- •Management Quota — filled by the college at higher fees, with more accessible closing ranks.
- •NRI Quota — a small share at NRI fees, where seats remain.
Counselling runs in multiple rounds — Round 1 → Round 2 → Mop-up → Stray Vacancy. Closing ranks loosen in later rounds as higher-ranked candidates settle elsewhere, so a rank that misses an early round can still convert to a seat later.
As a private dental college, S.J.M. Dental College & Hospital typically has more accessible closing ranks than government colleges — management-quota seats in particular admit a wider NEET-rank range. Exact ranks vary each year by category, quota and round; confirm on the Karnataka counselling portal, or use the College Predictor to see your chances at your NEET rank.
