MOCK COUNSELLING IN GOA
A student picked their 3rd preference thinking they’d upgrade in Round 2. Round 2 came — their 1st preference had already filled. The preference order you submit is the order you live with.
Which of these colleges applies to your rank?
150
Just 150 MBBS seats. One college. One counselling. The most concentrated MBBS market in India.
Goa Medical College (GMC) Bambolim is the only MBBS institution in the state. 150 seats for an entire state. There is no private MBBS in Goa. If you're not at GMC or AIQ — you're going to another state.
No Pvt
Goa has zero private MBBS colleges — no management quota, no NRI quota, no alternative route within the state
Every other state has at least some private MBBS capacity. Goa doesn't. If your rank doesn't make the 85% Goa state quota or the 15% AIQ at GMC, there is no paid private fallback within Goa. Other states are the only option.
Domicile
15+ years of continuous Goa residence — Goa has one of the stricter domicile bars in India
Goa domicile requires a birth certificate showing Goa birth OR 15 years of continuous residence with school education in Goa. Recent migrants or those with irregular schooling history may not qualify even if they've lived in Goa for years.
AIQ
The 15% AIQ seats at GMC Goa are the only path for non-Goa candidates — and they compete on pure AIR
22-23 AIQ seats at GMC are contested by candidates from across India. Non-domicile candidates targeting Goa through AIQ face high competition for a very small pool. The closing rank for AIQ at GMC Goa is typically strong.

State + MCC AIQ
85% seats through Goa state counselling via DTE Goa. 15% through MCC AIQ (open to all India). Non-domicile can only access AIQ seats.
