NEET Result 2023 : All India Quota (AIQ) Merit List

The NEET Merit List is a comprehensive list that includes the names, NEET scores, and ranks of eligible candidates for the counselling process. The authorities responsible for the release of the NEET Merit List publish it in PDF format on their respective official websites. In this article, we will discuss the releasing authorities, various types of merit lists in NEET, the correlation between marks and ranks, cut-off criteria, and other important details.

NEET Merit List 2023 is released by the National Testing Agency (NTA) based on the NEET 2023 scores of candidates who have opted for 15% All India Quota (AIQ) seats. The NTA then forwards the merit list to the Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS), Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, which provides the same to the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) for conducting the 15% AIQ NEET Counselling. MCC allocates seats for various medical colleges based on the ranks and scores obtained in NEET 2023.

NTA follows specific Inter-se Merit List Tie Breaker Criteria for assigning ranks in NEET 2023. As per this criterion, there is no candidate with All India Rank (AIR) 2, and instead, two candidates share the AIR 1 position.

Apart from the central authorities, state authorities also release state-wise NEET Merit Lists 2023 for admission to the remaining 85% state quota seats.

Initially, the authorities release provisional merit lists, which enable candidates to participate in the admission process. After the conclusion of each round of counselling, the final NEET allotment lists are published. These lists include the names of candidates, their ranks, and the names of the colleges allotted to them based on their ranks. For detailed information, candidates can refer to the NEET 2023 Seat Matrix.

The qualifying cut-off percentile for NEET 2023 is 50 for General category, 45 for General category candidates with disabilities (GN-PwD), and 40 for SC/ST/OBC categories. The corresponding minimum cut-off scores are released category-wise along with the NEET results. Candidates can utilize the NEET 2023 College Predictor to obtain a list of top medical colleges that accept their scores for MBBS/BDS admissions.

In the event of two or more candidates securing the same marks in the NEET entrance exam, specific tie-breaking criteria will be applied to prepare the NEET All India Merit List 2023.

1. Higher marks in Biology will be given priority.
2. If the tie persists, higher marks in Chemistry will be given priority.
3. Higher marks in Physics will result in a higher rank.

5. Next, the candidate with a lesser proportion of attempted incorrect and correct answers in Biology will be given priority.
6. If the tie persists, the candidate with a lesser proportion of attempted incorrect and correct answers in Chemistry will be given priority.

NEET Merit List 2023:

• All India Merit List: The NTA will release the All India Merit List, which includes the rank numbers and names of all candidates who appear for NEET 2023. This list will not consider the candidate's category or their eligibility for the AIQ reservation.
• All India Quota Merit List: The AIQ Merit List will display the test takers who are selected for the AIQ 15% reservation. Candidates who wish to independently claim eligibility must submit an online self-declaration, which will be printed along with the confirmation page and must be submitted during counselling.
• State Merit List: State medical councils will prepare their own merit lists based on various factors, such as the applicant's eligibility according to their domicile requirements. This list will indicate the state rank of candidates on a comparative scale with applicants from the same state.

For example, the All India NEET merit list will be prepared by arranging candidates' All India Ranks (AIR), while the AIQ merit list will be prepared based on the AIQ ranks of qualified candidates, and so on.

NEET Merit List 2023 For 15% AIQ Seats

To be eligible for All India Quota admissions, candidates must qualify NEET 2023 by scoring equal to or higher marks than the NEET 2023 cutoff. The merit list for All India Quota will include the same number of names as the available seats. Counselling for these candidates will be conducted based on their All India Quota Rank.

• In addition, a waiting list will be prepared, consisting of approximately four times the number of names on the merit list. This will be done if deemed necessary by the Director General of Health Services (DGHS).
• Candidates aspiring to take admission in AFMC (Armed Forces Medical College) must submit a separate application on the AFMC website, as they will conduct a second screening process.
