Cutoffs & Admission Trends

Because GMC Karimnagar is new, cutoff history is limited but some data is available for previous years / rounds, especially for All India Quota (AIQ) rounds:

Recent Cutoff Trends (AIQ / NEET UG)

  • 2025, Round 2 (General AIQ): Closing rank ~ 22,982 

  • 2024, Round 2 (General AIQ): Closing rank ~ 20,901 

  • 2023, AIQ General, Round 1: ~ 16,060 

  • Category-wise (2024) – All India Quota:
     • OBC: closing ~ 21,303 / 22,556 in some rounds 
     • EWS: ~ 25,007 in some rounds 
     • SC / ST: closing ranks vary widely in AIQ rounds, sometimes large numbers owing to fewer seats or lower demand 

Because the college is new and competition may intensify, the safe target for a candidate should be better (higher rank / more marks) than the closing rank of prior years.

Projected Target for 2025 (General / Reserved)

  • General / Open (AIQ): Aim for Top 15,000–25,000 AIR (or equivalently strong NEET score)

  • OBC / Reserved categories: A somewhat lower AIR / marks buffer, but still competitive

  • State Quota Ranks (Telangana): These will differ — your state rank matters more in that quota.


Placements, Internship & Career Path

  • Internship: After academic years, students complete a 1-year rotating internship in clinical departments of the attached hospital.

  • Stipend: Paid as per Telangana / KNRUHS / state norms (early career stipend)

  • Post-MBBS Career Options:
     • Appear for NEET-PG / INI-CET to enter MD / MS / super-specialty courses
     • Join government health services / district hospitals in Telangana
     • Private practice, teaching roles, hospital jobs
     • Research, public health, administrative roles

Since medicine does not follow a typical “placement drive,” success depends on exam scores, specialty interest, reputation, and networking.

  • Hostels: Yes, hostel facilities are provided. 

  • Hostel Setup: Temporary hostels currently in use; permanent hostels under development. Rooms may be shared (2–3 per room) initially.

  • Campus Facilities: Labs, library, classrooms, demonstration rooms, hospital departments, emergency, OPD, diagnostic labs.

  • Transport & Connectivity: College is located on Jagityal Road (NH corridor), making access easier. 

  • Other Facilities: Sports, auditorium / seminar halls, cafeteria / canteen, computer labs.


Ranking & Reputation

  • As a very new institution (established 2023), GMC Karimnagar does not yet feature prominently in national rankings or NIRF listings.

  • Over the next few years, reputation will build based on:

    • Clinical exposure & patient load

    • Faculty quality & retention

    • Research output & publications

    • Infrastructure growth & student feedback

  • In Telangana, the college is likely to be viewed favorably as a government option near home for many candidates.
