NEET-MDS by rank › Rank 5,000

What can you get at NEET-MDS rank 5,000?

This page looks at the latest complete season of MCC NEET-MDS counselling. For each MDS branch, it counts the dental college courses whose final closing rank (the NEET-MDS rank of the last person who got that seat) for the open category (UR) was 5,000 or later. That means an open-category candidate at NEET-MDS rank 5,000 would have been in range for them.

In short: at rank 5,000, no All India Quota course at a government college, but 194 paid-seat courses at deemed universities across 9 branches closed at or after your rank. The most options were in Periodontology, Pediatric and Preventive Dentistry, Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics.

Please note. These are open-category (UR) figures only, from the latest complete season’s final closing ranks (Round 1, 2 and 3; stray rounds left out). Reserved categories (OBC, EWS, SC, ST) usually reach further on All India Quota seats; deemed university seats have no category reservation and are paid seats, with much higher fees than a government college seat. State quota seats are not counted here. A past closing rank is not a promise for this year. The exact list for your category and rank is in MDS options and the full MDS report.

A “course” is one MDS branch at one college (for example MDS Orthodontics at one college). Click a branch to see its closing rank college by college.

Figures: latest complete counselling on record (MCC 2025). This season (2026) is not counted until its rounds are over.
