Students should assess their chances of securing an MBBS seat by comparing their NEET rank with previous years’ college-wise and category-wise closing ranks. They should understand the difference between All India Quota, state quota, and AIIMS admissions through the applicable counselling process conducted by MCC. During choice filling, students should include a balanced list of aspirational, realistic, and backup colleges, while considering eligibility, fees, and location. Since cutoffs vary each year, previous trends are useful indicators, not guarantees of admission.
