How MBBS admission works here
Seats in Karnataka are filled through NEET-UG: government seats mostly through state or All India Quota counselling depending on the college, and private/deemed seats through the college's own management or NRI quota alongside the counselling round. The NEET cutoff figures above are the closing rank or score from the most recent counselling round available, not a fixed number that repeats every year — cutoffs move with the number of applicants and available seats each cycle.
Fees, seats and cutoffs are indicative and change yearly — verify against the official NEET counselling brochure before making a decision.
