Questions related to INI CET

On Question asked by student community

Have a question related to INI CET ?

Hello,

With a rank of 1375 in the INI CET November 2025 session under the general category, securing a seat in general surgery or orthopedics will be very difficult, but still you have chances in fields like MCh courses or related surgical fields in the counseling rounds.

I hope it will clear your query!!

Hello,

Based on previous INI-CET trends , a UR rank around 25,686 usually does not get a Microbiology seat in AIIMS institutes.

In most years, Microbiology in AIIMS closes at a much better (lower) rank for the unreserved category. Only the very last round in some years has gone close to this range, and even that is rare. Seats are few, and most AIIMS fill Microbiology well before this rank.

You may still keep hope for the open or mop-up rounds , as small movements can happen, but the chances remain low based on past data.

You can use our INI-CET College Predictor Tool to predict which colleges you can get based on your score and rank.

Hope it helps !

Hello,

If your employer refuses sponsorship, you cannot apply for a sponsored seat in INI-CET or DNB. Sponsorship is given only by the parent organisation.

You can consider these options:

  • Apply in the general category (no sponsorship needed).

  • Take Extraordinary Leave (EOL) or leave without pay to do PG.

  • Submit a written request asking the institute to reconsider sponsorship.

  • Check your institute’s rules, because many autonomous bodies have strict conditions for sponsored study leave.

There is no alternate authority that can sponsor you if your own organisation denies it.

Hope it helps !

thank you!


Hello,

It's highly unlikely you will get a clinical seat at AIIMS Mangalagiri with an INI CET All India Rank (AIR) of 19600 in the general category based on previous year's cutoff trends. The closing ranks for most competitive clinical branches in the general category at AIIMS Mangalargi typically close much earlier, often within the first few hundred to a couple of thousand ranks.

I hope it will clear your query!!
