AIIMS PG 2021 Counselling: Registration, Choice Filling, Seat allotment, Schedule

*Tentative dates, subject to change.

To qualify INI CET 2021, a candidate needed to score more than or equal to 50th percentile in the exam. However, qualifying the examination does not make a candidate eligible to participate in the AIIMS PG counselling 2021. After the results are announced, AIIMS releases a merit list of the candidates who have qualified the examination. The total number of candidates in this merit list is eight times the total of seats available. Only those candidates who are included in the AIIMS PG merit list will be eligible to participate in the counselling process. Candidates can refer to the AIIMS PG cut off for the last session to get an idea of percentile scores that are required to make it to the list of candidates eligible for the first round of counselling.
