Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. How many total medical colleges in Kerala participated in Round 1 of the 2025 AIQ counselling?
A: Based on the Round 1 allotment data, a total of 14 distinct medical institutions in Kerala saw seat allotments.
Q2. Which institute type saw the highest number of seat allotments in Kerala?
A: The State Govt Colleges category witnessed the highest volume, successfully filling 327 seats in Round 1.
Q3. What are State Govt Colleges and how many seats do they offer in AIQ?
A: State Government Medical Colleges are funded and managed by the state government. In the All India Quota (AIQ) counselling conducted by the MCC, these colleges surrender exactly 15% of their total approved seats to the national pool, allowing students from any state to apply. The remaining 85% is reserved for state domicile candidates.
Q4. What is a Deemed University in NEET counselling?
A: A Deemed University is a highly autonomous institution that operates independently of the state university systems. They offer 100% of their management and paid seats through the national AIQ counselling process, meaning there is no state domicile reservation. However, their tuition fees are significantly higher than government colleges.
Q5. 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.
Q5. 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.
