Hello,

Based on previous year's cutoffs for INICET (Institute of National Importance Combined Entrance Test) and the clinical fields, here's an analysis for a candidate with an All India Rank (AIR) of 5574 under the OBC category:

1. Rank Analysis : In general, for clinical specialties, the cutoffs tend to be higher due to competition and preference. For OBC candidates, the rank cutoffs are generally 10-20% lower than for General category candidates.

2. Clinical Specialties : In the clinical field (such as Medicine, Surgery, Pediatrics, etc.), OBC candidates may get opportunities in lower-demand specialties or institutes with relatively lower competition.

3. Previous Year Trends : In the past, OBC ranks around 5000-6000 have found opportunities in less popular clinical specialties in government institutions, especially in Tier 2/3 cities. Top institutes like AIIMS, PGI, or JIPMER may be difficult to secure with this rank.

4. Strategy : Candidates in this rank may explore counseling options and look for clinical fields in institutes with relatively lower cutoffs for OBC.

Hello there,

With a rank of 5574 in INI-CET 2024 and belonging to the OBC category, securing a clinical seat is moderately challenging but possible depending on the branch and institution. Clinical branches like General Medicine, Pediatrics, or Radiology are more competitive and often require higher ranks. However, branches like Psychiatry, Pathology, or Forensic Medicine might have better availability at your rank.

Institutions such as AIIMS Bhopal, Jodhpur, and Rishikesh, or JIPMER Puducherry, may offer a better chance, though this depends on seat availability and category-specific cutoffs during counseling rounds. It’s crucial to participate actively in the counseling rounds and keep an eye on any upgrades or changes in seat allocation.
