Understanding past trends of NEET MDS college allotment can help candidates predict their chances of securing a seat in desired colleges. Below are insights based on historical data and recent patterns of NEET MDS rankwise college allotment:
Maulana Azad Institute of Dental Sciences, Delhi requires ranks below 100–200 for clinical specialisations like Orthodontics or Oral Surgery (General category).
Postgraduate Institute of Dental Sciences, Rohtak: Ranks below 300 for top branches.
Dr. R. Ahmed Dental College, Kolkata: Ranks around 200–400 for clinical seats.
Government Dental College, Chennai: Ranks below 500 for the General category in popular specialisations.
Candidates with ranks between 500 and 1,000 may secure seats in less competitive specialisations (e.g., Oral Pathology, Public Health Dentistry) or in government colleges in states with more seats, like Tamil Nadu or Karnataka.
Reserved category candidates have a higher chance of securing clinical seats in this rank range.
Candidates with ranks above 1,000 are unlikely to secure government seats in the General category but can opt for private or deemed universities like Manipal College of Dental Sciences or SRM Dental College.
Specialisations like Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Manipal had closing ranks around 1,500–2,000 in 2024 (General category).
The rank wise college allotment for NEET MDS is done through the MCC’s counselling for 50% All India Quota seats, deemed/central universities, ESIC, and AFMC seats, while state counselling authorities conduct the remaining 50% state quota seats.
