Govt. Dental College, Kozhikkode

Planning around Govt. Dental College, Kozhikkode is difficult. The OPEN cutoff has swung by 27,053 ranks across 3 years of data, which is a 62% coefficient of variation. Students should keep a wider safety margin when including this college on their preference list and avoid placing it as their sole target in any rank band.

This college filled at its tightest cutoff by Round 3 in 2025. Later rounds did not bring easier entry; if your rank is above the Round 1 cutoff, your chances here are low regardless of the round.

Category matters significantly at this college. The ST cutoff is 12.7× the OPEN cutoff, meaning reserved category students have a dramatically wider rank window. If you belong to ST, this college is accessible at ranks that would be far out of reach for general category candidates.

Rank-based planning: AIR 13,385 or better = safe (high probability of allotment). AIR 13,385–19,121 = target (likely but not certain). AIR 19,121–32,485 = reach (possible in later rounds only). These bands are derived from 3 years of closing rank data.
