They generally allocate 100% of their AIQ-eligible seats through the central MCC counselling, frequently favoring candidates from specific backgrounds (like insured persons or military dependents).

Q7. Can these closing ranks drop further in Round 2?

A: Yes. Historically, closing ranks tend to shift downward in Round 2 and Stray Vacancy rounds as candidates exercise free exit options or upgrade their seats. However, highly sought-after top-tier institutions may see minimal rank displacement.

Q7. What is RC Rank?

A: RC Rank is RankerCentral’s proprietary ranking metric that orders medical colleges purely by true student demand.

It’s calculated using a volume-weighted algorithm based on actual NEET AIQ core round admissions data (for example, the 2025 dataset). Instead of relying on subjective surveys or arbitrary cut-offs, RC Rank reflects where students genuinely choose to go, weighted by the number of seats and the demand intensity.
