Factors Affecting SC Category Cutoff in Rajasthan 2026
Several variables will determine where the final SC cutoff lands after Rajasthan NEET UG 2026 state counselling:
- NEET UG 2026 difficulty level — a harder paper lowers the score distribution and typically pulls cutoffs down across all categories.
- Number of SC qualifiers in NEET 2026 — more SC students qualifying increases competition for the reserved seats.
- Total SC reserved seats available — any NMC-approved increase in college intake adds directly to the SC seat pool.
- Rajasthan domicile verification — only students with a valid domicile certificate are counted in state quota competition.
- Number of counselling rounds — cutoffs generally decline in Round 2 and the mop-up round as fewer students participate.
- Mop-up and stray vacancy rounds — additional seats released in later rounds may lower the effective cutoff for waitlisted students.
