The table below compares final-round closing ranks across reservation categories for 3 representative colleges (2025 counselling data, for reference by 2026 aspirants).

How cutoffs change across rounds

Rajasthan counselling typically runs 3 rounds (R1, R2 and R3). Cutoff ranks tend to rise (become less competitive) in later rounds as candidates who secured seats elsewhere drop out of the process.

For example, Sardar Patel Medical College, Bikaner had an R1 cutoff of 4,395 that moved to 4,963 by R3, a shift of about 568 ranks.

Year-over-year trends

Across 2024-2025, 17 out of 48 colleges saw more relaxed (higher rank numbers) cutoffs. New seat additions and changes in candidate preferences can both push cutoffs upward.

Sardar Patel Medical College, Bikaner moved from rank 5,049 in 2024 to 4,963 in 2025 (the cutoff rank dropped by 86).

How to use this data

Start by checking where your expected NEET rank falls relative to the cutoffs above. If your rank is within 10-15% of a college’s closing rank, that college is worth listing in your preference order.

Pay attention to the round-by-round pattern. A college that fills in R1 at rank 20,000 but drops to 28,000 by the final round gives you a realistic shot if your rank is in the mid-20,000s. Conversely, colleges whose cutoffs tighten across rounds are harder to get into later.

Category-specific cutoffs matter. The reservation categories page in our Rajasthan category guide explains eligibility requirements and document checklists for each category.
