Last year at your rank, and this year

Last year, 23 students at AIR 29,317 to 30,286 were allotted Orthopaedics in Round 1. By the last round:

Kept their Round 1 seat2

Upgraded to another Orthopaedics seat: they held theirs and chose Float11

Let their seat go and were allotted another Orthopaedics seat in a later round2

Moved to another specialty2

Let their seat go and held no MCC seat after (6 of them were in a state's counselling)6

Another 30 at these AIRs got Orthopaedics only in Round 2, Round 3 or the stray round.

This year so far: 9 Orthopaedics seats ended between AIR 29,317 and 30,286 last year. This year most of them ended within 745 ranks earlier and 2,237 ranks further: about where they did: Rajagiri Hospital, AIR 29,781 last year, AIR 29,036 this year.

Orthopaedics seats MCC allotted in Round 1 (General and EWS, in the All India, DNB and deemed quotas): 1,352 last year, 1,383 this year. All seats MCC allotted in Round 1: 26,889 last year, 28,723 this year. All India quota Round 1 seat matrix: 12,678 last year, 13,522 this year.

Upgrading is allowed till Round 3; a Round 3 seat cannot be upgraded or resigned. Last year's students are not this year's.
