I see in MOP up round , more seats are available for All india than home state
Hy,
Yes, it's possible to see more seats available in the Mop-Up round for All India Quota (AIQ) than for the Home State quota. This can happen due to various reasons related to how seats are distributed and the specific nature of the Mop-Up round in the counseling process.
-
Unfilled Seats from Previous Rounds :
- In the first and second rounds of counseling, if seats allotted under the All India Quota (AIQ) remain unfilled (due to non-joining or candidates not taking admission), they roll over into the Mop-Up round .
- This increases the number of seats available for AIQ in the Mop-Up round.
- On the other hand, seats for Home State Quota might already be filled up in earlier rounds, so fewer seats remain for this category.
-
Mop-Up Round Characteristics :
- The Mop-Up round is primarily aimed at filling the leftover or vacant seats after the main counseling rounds are completed.
- In many cases, more candidates from the Home State Quota may have already taken seats in the earlier rounds, leaving a larger number of AIQ seats vacant for the Mop-Up round.
Seat Conversion :
- Sometimes, vacant seats in Home State Quota (if not filled by state domicile candidates) can be converted into AIQ seats in the Mop-Up round, increasing the number of seats available for All India candidates.
- Conversely, unfilled AIQ seats can also be allotted to state candidates, depending on the state and the specific rules followed by the counseling authority.
Counseling Rules :
- Different states have different policies regarding the number of seats reserved for the Home State and the AIQ. In some cases, AIQ may have more seats to begin with.
- The 15% AIQ seats in government medical colleges are open to all eligible candidates across India, and in the Mop-Up round, these unfilled seats are again offered, sometimes leading to a perception that more AIQ seats are available compared to Home State quota.
