Kmc Manipal Neet 2019 Cutoff
The College Cut-off is the minimum marks prescribed by the selection board for the admission of students. Merit list will be designed on these Cutoff scores. Aspirants who apply for the Institute needs to clear the Cutoff for various courses.
It is difficult to predict the cutoff marks, as it varies every year depending on the difficulty level of the exam, the competition in that particular year and an increase/ decrease in the number of seats in government colleges.
However, I can give you the cutoff for KMC Manipal in 2018: 494 marks was the cutoff in the first round, and it went up to 506 marks in round 2 and went up further to 521 marks during the mock up round.
So, if we consider the difficulty level of NEET 2019 to be more or less similar to 2018, then you can expect the cutoff for KMC Manipal to be around 500+ marks..
Hope this is helpful.
