Dear Aspirant,

The entire state of Maharashtra has a decent number of seats available for students aspiring to study Medicine. The number of government seats available in the state is over 4100. 15% of the seats is for All the India Quota. 85% of the seats is for State Quota i.e. close to 3600 seats. Of these number of seats, 50% of the seats are reserved for SC, ST and OBC combined which means 1800 seats.

It is not clear which Category enjoys how much percentage of reservation, still even if the distribution is close equal distribution, the number of seats for the category Other Backward Class should be in the range of 450 to 580 number of seats, as the government may have given greater percentage of reservation to SC and ST for their development in society. So, the state may have this many number of OBC seats.

Although, you have urged to know the number of OBC seats, still a lot depends upon your general rank as well for clearing the cutoff rank of the top Medical colleges of the state.

I hope you get admission in a good medical college and prosper higher in the field. In case you want to know which is the better college, you may just click on this URL:-

Dear Aspirant,

There is a specific structure in which seats are divided into for counselling and admission.The total no of seats are decided by the individual college to be provided upon rests on the total number of seats available.In Maharashta 15% of seats gets filled through all india quota and the rest 85% are offered to students under state quota.Now these seats are further divided into regional quota and state quota  with regional being 70%.Further division of female quota and constitutional quota is there.
