Read the quota column with the rank. The same college often has a government seat closing at a few thousand and a management or NRI seat open to two lakh — at many times the fee. A large rank here does not mean a cheap seat.

Each column is a range in its own right — the cheapest fee is not the widest rank, and they are often different colleges. Which is which is in the full table.

Common questions about MS Ophthalmology
- What rank is needed for MS Ophthalmology?
- It depends on the quota as much as on the rank. In the ST category, round 1 closed from rank 4 at the most competitive college. Management and NRI seats at the same colleges stay open to far larger ranks, but cost several times more — so a large rank does not mean a cheap seat. The table on this page keeps each seat's rank and its own fee on the same row for exactly that reason.
- How many MS Ophthalmology seats are there?
- 2,474 seats across 472 colleges in 26 states, counted from the published seat matrix for 2025.
- Does the MS Ophthalmology cutoff loosen in later rounds?
- For 89 of the 133 ST seats, yes — a later round reached a worse rank than round 1 did, because upgrades free seats and a freed seat goes to whoever is next. The rest closed tighter or did not move.
These are historical closing ranks, not a forecast. They say where the cut actually landed in published rounds; nothing here predicts what this year will do.
