Reading the rankings

How to read these rankings

Your NEET All-India Rank: Your own rank in the NEET exam across India (from NTA). Smaller is better. Use it for every category.
Closing rank (Round 1, 2, 3, Stray): The highest All-India Rank that still got a seat at that college in 2026, for one quota, category and round, from MCC’s official results. The stray vacancy round is the last round. If your rank is equal or smaller, it got in that year.
★ NIRF 2025 #: The government’s quality ranking of institutions (Ministry of Education): teaching, research, graduate outcomes, outreach and reputation. It says nothing about cut-offs. Some ranks are for the university a college belongs to.
High demand · Top 10 / Top 50: Where the college stands among all MBBS (or BDS) colleges by its round 1 Open closing rank in 2026: how early toppers chose it. It measures demand, not quality.
