Tell Us Your Rank.
We’ll Tell You the Truth.
Most PG mistakes happen at choice filling, not in the exam. A good rank gets wasted on the wrong order of choices. An average rank gets written off when a state round or a deemed university would have worked.
Share your rank, category and home state. On the call we cover four things:
- which MCC and state rounds are realistic for your rank
- branch versus college: when to take the branch, when to take the college
- if a government seat is out of reach, what management or NRI quota will cost and where
- a deadline plan, so you do not miss a registration that closes at noon

Score Gets You In.
Rank Decides the Seat.
Your score decides whether you qualify. Your rank decides which seat you get, because MCC and every state allot seats in rank order. Two people with close scores can be hundreds of ranks apart, so plan with your rank.
| If your rank is… | Most realistic route | Do this now |
|---|---|---|
| Near the top | Government MD/MS through MCC 50% AIQ and your home-state quota | Register with MCC and your state. Round 1 choices matter most |
| In the middle | Home-state quota, deemed universities, DNB, and non-clinical government seats | Register in every state where you are eligible, plus MCC deemed rounds |
| Above the cut-off, below the government range | Private MD/MS through management quota, or NRI quota with an eligible sponsor | Register in state counselling for private colleges and fix your fee budget early |
| Below the cut-off | Not eligible this year unless the percentile is lowered (it has been in past years) | Watch natboard.edu.in and mcc.nic.in for any revision |

We do not sell seats. Nobody can. Every MD/MS seat, management and NRI included, is allotted only through MCC or state counselling on your NEET PG rank. What we do is help you choose well and miss nothing.
