J&K NEET Cut Off 2026: Round 1 Closing Ranks and Marks (MBBS, BDS)

Conducted by JKBOPEE Scope Jammu and Kashmir

The J&K NEET cut off is the last UT rank and NEET UG score at which JKBOPEE allotted an MBBS or BDS seat. JKBOPEE does not publish a separate cut-off list, so we worked out the 2026 Round 1 closing ranks from its official lists. Open Merit government MBBS seats closed at 558 marks (male) and 525 marks (female).

Latest (10 October 2026): JKBOPEE published the 2026 special/mop-up round selection list on 10 October 2026. It has not issued a separate cut-off list; the figures below are from the official Round 1 selection list and the Provisional Merit List.

J&K NEET Cut Off 2026

Round 1 closing UT ranks and NEET marks for government MBBS by category and gender, Open Merit closing by college, BDS and ASCOMS seats, and the JKBOPEE qualifying scores.

How to check the J&K NEET cut off?

  1. Open the JKBOPEE notifications page.
  2. Open the Provisional Selection List of the round you want, for example Round 1 (Notification 163-BOPEE).
  3. Find your college and the seat category in the CAT-SLI column. Note the highest UT rank allotted, separately for male and female candidates.
  4. Find your own UT rank and NEET score in the Provisional Merit List and compare.

Later rounds fill seats left vacant after joining and upgrades, so a seat can go to a higher UT rank than in Round 1.

How should you read these J&K NEET closing figures?

  • UT rank is your rank among registered J&K and Ladakh candidates in the Provisional Merit List, not your All India Rank.
  • Figures are from Round 1 only. Rounds 2, 3 and the mop-up round filled vacated seats, sometimes at higher ranks.
  • Horizontal seats (PwD, CDP, sports, JKPM) are not in these tables and can close at very different ranks.
  • The 15% All India Quota seats are filled by MCC and are not part of these figures.
  • NEET marks change with each year’s paper, so judge your chances by rank as well as marks.
