MBBS Admission Guide: NEET, Counselling, Documents
Admission to the MBBS course at Government Medical College, Latur is based on merit in the national entrance examination followed by centralised counselling. This guide explains the route from the entrance test to the first day of college, and lists the documents you will need.
Entrance Examination and Quotas
Candidates qualify through NEET, the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test. Historically the college filled 85 per cent of its seats through the state quota and 15 per cent through the All India quota, and the same broad split continues under the NEET counselling system run by the state and central authorities.
The annual intake is 150 MBBS students. Cut-off ranks vary every year with the number of applicants and the difficulty of the paper, so treat previous years' closing ranks only as a rough guide.
