State-wise seat matrix 2026
One page per state: best colleges by opening rank, where seats are still open, closing rank by category, the full matrix and how we get the numbers. Updated 25 Oct 2026.
How to read these numbers
- Opening and closing rank are the best and the last NEET-UG All India Rank allotted at the institute in Round 1, Open category, in the merit quota (All India, Open Seat or Self-Financed Merit). NRI, minority, ESIC and internal quotas are left out here because their rank ranges are not comparable; the institute page shows every quota and category. A lower opening rank means stronger candidates chose the college; the closing rank is roughly the rank you needed to get in.
- Round 1 offered is MCC's seat matrix: every seat a college put into All India counselling, by quota and category.
- Allotted counts candidates in MCC's round result who were allotted a seat at that institute. Joined after R1 counts those who actually reported; the rest freed their seats.
- R2 new allotments are people newly placed at the institute in Round 2: fresh allotments plus candidates who upgraded into it. Round-1 joiners who kept their seat are not counted again.
- R3 new allotments are counted the same way for Round 3. Filled (shown once counselling closes) is MCC's own admitted/joined list up to Round 3 plus the Stray Vacancy Round allotments; vacant at close is every seat offered (Round 1 matrix plus seats newly added in Rounds 2 and 3) minus filled. Vacant seats return to the institute or lapse; they cannot be bought.
- Open for the next round: once MCC publishes the vacancy list for a round, this is the official clear vacancy (seats definitely empty) plus newly added seats. The virtual vacancy also counts seats of candidates from the previous round who opted to upgrade; those seats only free up if the candidate actually moves. Before the list is out we estimate: seats offered minus seats still held after the last round.
- Nobody can reserve, buy or "manage" an MCC seat. If an agent quotes a price for a seat on this list, report it and read how fake admission scams work.
