Malabar Dental College, Edappal has been predictable under Kerala state counselling. The OPEN cutoff has stayed within a 1,677-rank band across 3 years. Students whose rank falls within this band can plan around this college with reasonable confidence.
Later rounds significantly widen the entry window here. The closing rank relaxed by 6,567 ranks (30%) between Round 1 and Round 3 in 2025. If you missed the Round 1 cutoff by up to 4,597 ranks, keep this college on your preference list for subsequent rounds.
Category-wise cutoffs are relatively bunched at this college. Even the widest gap (EWS, 1.5× OPEN) is modest. Your category alone won't dramatically change your chances here compared to other colleges where the gap is wider.
Rank-based planning: AIR 22,048 or better = safe. AIR 22,048–29,397 = target. AIR 29,397–33,091 = reach (later rounds). Beyond AIR 33,091, this college is unlikely unless cutoffs relax further.
