At rank 1,00,000, neither AIQ government seats nor state domicile government seats remain accessible for general category candidates in most states. A candidate at rank 98,116 (General/Open) was allotted JSS Medical College, Mysuru in Round 1 via MCC deemed quota. They reported and stayed. Based on 39,478 verified MCC UG 2025 candidate journeys, JSS Mysuru closing at its verified MCC deemed rank is one of the better-positioned deemed colleges at this range. The question at rank 1,00,000 is not which government college — it is whether a deemed college is available and worth pursuing at its fee, or whether state counselling opens a different path entirely.
What the data shows at rank 1,00,000
In the 1,00,001+ rank band of MCC UG 2025, 68% of allotted candidates reported to their Round 1 college — the highest commitment rate of any rank band. This reflects a straightforward reality: candidates at this rank who receive an allotment know their options are limited, and they take what they are offered. 13,250 candidates were allotted in Round 1; 9,027 reported. The AIQ government path is closed. State domicile government is closed for general category. The options you can get in MCC are: 51 deemed colleges and 17 management quota private colleges.

The 51 deemed colleges you can get at rank 1,00,000 span a range of geographies and tiers. KS Hegde Medical Academy, Mangalore (closing 1,37,517) and Rural Medical College, Loni (closing 1,39,826) represent the deeper end of the 2025 verified closing ranks. These colleges are fully MCC counselled — the same process, the same rounds, the same round-by-round deposit mechanics — but with fee structures determined by university fee committees, not state fee caps. The candidate at this rank is choosing between a deemed college via MCC and whatever options state counselling opens, which depends entirely on domicile state and reserved category status.
Why category matters most at rank 1,00,000
At rank 1,00,000, the category distinction is the biggest variable in the outcome. For SC, ST, and OBC candidates, state quota government colleges remain accessible in many states at this rank band — the state domicile closing ranks for reserved categories extend significantly deeper than for general category. A general category candidate at rank 1,00,000 and an SC candidate at the same rank face completely different option sets. The 2025 data shows this clearly: 68% of allotted candidates in the 1,00,001+ band committed in Round 1, but the profile of who got allotted is heavily weighted toward SC/ST candidates who still had state government options at this rank. The 2,921 fresh Round 3 entrants in this band are candidates for whom Round 3 opened a seat that Round 1 and Round 2 had not.
