Goa NEET Cut Off 2026
Merit numbers DTE Goa called for MBBS and BDS in 2026, the NEET scores at those merit numbers, the seats, and the NEET UG 2026 qualifying marks.
How to check the Goa NEET cut off and your merit number?
- Open the DTE Goa degree admission lists page.
- Open the final merit list 2026 for NEET-based courses and B.Pharm.
- Find your category list (General, SC, ST, OBC, ESM, NRI and others) and note your merit number and status.
- Open the round schedule, such as the October 2026 schedule.
- Check whether your merit number falls in the range called for MBBS and BDS, and report at that time.
Seats are taken in person in merit order, so your merit number in your category matters more than your marks.

How should you read these Goa NEET figures?
- Each category has its own merit list, and candidates in more than one list can attend in each of them.
- SC, ST and OBC candidates with caste certificates from outside Goa are not counted in the reserved lists.
- Local Applicants and Outside Goa Applicants get only seats left after all other categories, so they are reached only if seats remain.
- The AIQ seats at GMC and GDC are filled by MCC and are not part of these lists; see MCC NEET counselling.
