NEET Cut Off score depends on two factors- the number of students taking part in the entrance exam and the level of difficulty of the exam. If the cut off score is too high, you can assume that the exam was difficult last year. NEET previous year cut off will help you determine how much efforts you need to put in so that you can achieve the target.
