What This Means for NEET PG Aspirants (Cutoff and Strategy Impact)
The addition of 292 seats in Round 3 brings positive news for candidates in several ways:
- Cutoff Rank Relief: Because a high percentage of these seats are in core clinical fields like Medicine, Paediatrics, OBGY, Surgery, and Radio-Diagnosis, cutoffs across AIQ General, OBC, EWS, SC, and ST categories are expected to shift positively.
- Second Chance for Borderline Rankers: Candidates who missed allotment in Round 1 and Round 2 by narrow rank margins now have a realistic opportunity to secure clinical seats in government and top deemed colleges.
- Upgradation Opportunity: Candidates already holding seats from Round 2 who opted for willingness to upgrade can place these newly added government seats at the top of their preferences without losing their current seat unless a higher choice is allotted.
