1. All India Quota (AIQ) Counselling
Conducted by MCC
The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) under the Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS) conducts AIQ counselling for 15% of government medical college seats across all states.
This also includes 100% seats of AIIMS, JIPMER, ESIC, and central university institutions (BHU, AMU, DU).
Who should apply: Every NEET qualified student even if you prefer your state quota
Registration: MCC portal (mcc.nic.in)
Key Rounds: Round 1, Round 2, Mop-Up Round, Stray Vacancy Round
Important: AIQ registration is separate and must not be skipped
2. State Quota Counselling
Conducted by State Authorities
The remaining 85% of government medical college seats are filled through state quota counselling, conducted separately by each state’s authority.
Students from Telangana and Andhra Pradesh will primarily use:
Telangana: TGNMC (Telangana State Medical Colleges Admission Process)
Andhra Pradesh: APNMC (Dr. YSR University of Health Sciences)
Karnataka: KEA (Karnataka Examination Authority)
Other states: Respective State Medical Counselling Committees
State counselling has its own eligibility criteria, domicile requirements, document submission timelines, and preference-filling protocols. Each state is different. Getting this wrong is one of the most common reasons students lose valid seats.
