The strong potential exists for SC category candidates to obtain admission in well-regarded medical colleges after scoring 520 Marks in NEET UG 2024. The Uttar Pradesh cutoff for SC group applicants in NEET tends to range from 450 to 500 marks. Your strong NEET UG score allows entry into government medical colleges including Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, Aligarh with its cutoff score set at 503 or GSVM Medical College, Kanpur with its cutoff score at 495. Yearly cutoff fluctuations need to be taken into consideration.
