My daughter's NEET score is 400, and her All India Rank (AIR) is 272,161. She is a Karnataka domicile candidate under the General Merit (GM) + 371J (Hyderabad-Karnataka/Kalyana Karnataka) category.
Based on her profile, what are her chances of securing an MBBS seat in Karnataka with an annual tuition fee of up to ₹15 lakh? Which colleges should we target during KEA counselling?
Ans: HI MADAM,
GREETINGS FROM THE REDIFFGURUS!
Yes, feasibility is there. Under the Private College Management Quota, the Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) conducts counseling for "Q Quota" (Management/Institutional Quota) seats. With a score of 400 marks, she can compete for these seats. I recommend concentrating on the following colleges to secure a seat. If needed, you can also wait for the mop-up rounds.
1. JJM Medical College, Davangere
2. M.S. Ramaiah Medical College, Bengaluru (Management Quota)
3. Vydehi Institute of Medical Sciences, Bengaluru
4. Navodaya Medical College, Raichur
5. S. Nijalingappa Medical College, Bagalkot
6. Mahadevappa Rampure Medical College, Kalaburagi
You can focus on any one of the above colleges. Since this is for an undergraduate program, there is no need to worry too much. After completing the UG course, she should pursue PG studies, at which point specialization and the choice of institution will be more important.
BEST WISHES.
