Dear Candidate ,
NEET UG counselling is primarily conducted based on your All India Rank ( AIR ) , not your category rank . However , your SC category status plays a crucial role during the seat allotment process . In the 15 % All India Quota ( AIQ ) counselling conducted by MCC , your AIR is used to process your application , but you will be considered for seats reserved for the SC category , competing only with other SC candidates for those specific seats .
