What 'round-wise cutoff' actually means
NEET UG counselling happens in multiple rounds — Round 1, Round 2, Round 3 (Mop-up) and a Stray Vacancy round for MCC, plus parallel rounds in each state's counselling. In every round, seats are allotted in order of merit, so the closing rank (the rank of the last student allotted a seat) drifts higher as later rounds open up more seats and candidates upgrade or drop out.
That means a college that closed at rank 15,000 in Round 1 might close near 22,000 by the Mop-up round. Looking only at the Round 1 cutoff badly underestimates your real chances. Our analyzer shows you the closing rank for each round side by side, so you can see exactly how far a college opens up as counselling progresses.
