Overview

MCC (Medical Counselling Committee), under the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, conducts India's centralised counselling for the 15% All India Quota (AIQ) seats in every state government medical/dental college, plus 100% of seats in central institutions, deemed/private universities that opt in, ESIC colleges and AFMC Pune, based purely on the NEET UG score. There is no separate examination - allotment depends entirely on NEET rank, category and the choices a candidate locks in. At the AIQ/central level, reservation follows the Government of India's standard categories: 10% EWS, 27% OBC-NCL, 15% SC, 7.5% ST, and a 5% horizontal reservation for persons with disabilities.

💡 Preparation Tips

• Research colleges, fees and bond conditions before locking choices - AIQ spans everything from AIIMS-level central institutions to state colleges' 15% quota seats
• Fill as many genuine preferences as possible in priority order rather than a short list
• Keep the standard document checklist ready - NEET UG admit card and scorecard, Class 10 and 12 marksheets, domicile/residence certificate, category certificate (if applicable), passport-size photos, and valid ID proof - keep both originals and photocopies ready for verification.
• Track each round's cut-off trends across previous years to make realistic choices
