- What is the closing rank for Kempegowda Institute of Medical Sciences, Bangalore?
- In 2025, the hardest seat here was MD Radio Diagnosis (KAR Govt Quota-Open, GM), closing at rank 475 in round 1. The most accessible was MD Paediatrics (KAR NRI Quota, NRI) at 1,27,611 — a different quota, usually at a very different fee, so the two are not interchangeable. The table above keeps each seat's rank, quota and fee on one row. These are the authority's own published closing ranks, not estimates.
- Does the cutoff at Kempegowda Institute of Medical Sciences, Bangalore go up in later rounds?
- Yes, for 137 of its 158 seats. The largest move was MD Social & Preventive Medicine, which closed at 43,783 in round 1 and reached 2,26,362 by the widest round — a difference of 1,82,579 ranks. Judging this college by round 1 alone understates what it actually reached.
- What are the fees at Kempegowda Institute of Medical Sciences, Bangalore?
- From ₹40,000 a year on a KAR Others (Inst.Q) seat to ₹1.25 crore on a KAR NRI Quota seat. The difference is the quota, not the college — the cheapest figure here does not apply to the seats open at the largest ranks. Both are from the published counselling fee schedule.
