98% of Expert NEET Long-Term Students Qualify for Medical Admissions
Mangaluru, July 21, 2026: Expert Coaching Classes, Mangaluru, has announced an impressive performance in the NEET 2026 examination, with 98 per cent of students enrolled in its NEET Long-Term Coaching Programme becoming eligible for admission to medical courses.
According to the institution, three students secured more than 575 marks, while 16 students scored above 550, 31 crossed 525, 55 secured above 500, 80 scored above 475, 115 obtained more than 450, 150 crossed 425, and 181 students scored above 400 marks.
Expert Chairman Prof. Narendra L. Nayak said the achievement was particularly significant as many students had previously fallen short of securing medical seats in NEET 2025 despite their aspirations to pursue medicine. He said the institute’s long-term coaching programme has enabled such students to significantly improve their scores and qualify for medical admissions.
He noted that many students preparing for the second PUC examination and other competitive tests are unable to achieve their desired NEET score on their first attempt. To ensure that deserving students do not lose the opportunity to pursue medical education, the institution launched its NEET Long-Term Coaching Programme in 2016, building on more than three decades of experience in preparing students for competitive examinations.
Among the top performers, Hazaratmaaz Babajan Bawakhan secured 589 marks, followed by Nischitha H. V. with 587, Samarth N. Halasur with 578, Yashas T. with 573, Harshavardhana S. J. with 572, Nandan Mohite with 571, Devansh S. H. with 568, Ayush M. Goudar with 560, Darshan Chandrakant Chougala with 560, Nihal Khojgir with 559, Roopa Padashetty with 558, Shreyas H. P. with 554, Amruta Hanumant Naik with 554, Samar Khadija with 552, Arun Kumar Ningappa Jagadal with 551, and Manvith Madhava Rao with 551.
