Last year at your rank, and this year

Last year, 50 students at AIR 20,274 to 21,706 were allotted Ophthalmology in Round 1. By the last round:

Kept their Round 1 seat8

Upgraded to another Ophthalmology seat: they held theirs and chose Float6

Let their seat go and were allotted another Ophthalmology seat in a later round7

Moved to another specialty14

Let their seat go and held no MCC seat after (13 of them were in a state's counselling)15

Another 45 at these AIRs got Ophthalmology only in Round 2, Round 3 or the stray round.

This year so far: 21 Ophthalmology seats ended between AIR 20,274 and 21,706 last year. This year most of them ended within 1,993 ranks earlier and 2,015 ranks further: about where they did: Shri Aurobindo Medical Research Centre, AIR 21,046 last year, AIR 19,971 this year.
