Coimbatore girl secures AIR 40 in NEET but name missing from official rank list
N Abishya
COIMBATORE: A Coimbatore girl has secured All India Rank (AIR) 40 in NEET 2025 with 680 marks, but her name was not reflected on the official rank list released by the
National Testing Agency
(NTA).
According to the NEET 2025 results declared by NTA on Saturday, six students from
Tamil Nadu
secured ranks within the top 100 at the national level.
Among them was Soorya Narayanan S from Tirunelveli, who was declared the state topper with 665 out of 720 marks and secured AIR 27.
However, N Abishya of Selvapuram in Coimbatore scored 680 marks -- 15 marks more than the declared state topper -- and secured AIR 40. Despite her higher score, her name was not featured on the top 100 rank list published by the agency.
Her father, Nelson, said that they had sent an email complaint to the NTA seeking clarification regarding the discrepancy. 'This was her third attempt. She scored 570 marks last year,' he added.
