How cutoffs change across rounds
Gujarat 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, B.J. Medical College, Ahmedabad had an R1 cutoff of 2,246 that moved to 4,016 by R3, a shift of about 1,770 ranks.
Later rounds fill seats vacated by candidates who accepted offers elsewhere. If you narrowly missed a college in R1, the final round may still work in your favour. Track round-by-round changes in the Cutoff Analyzer.
Year-over-year trends

The table above shows 3 representative colleges. Compare all 42 colleges and see how cutoffs have shifted over 3 years.
Across 2023-2025, 51 out of 65 colleges saw more relaxed (higher rank numbers) cutoffs. New seat additions and changes in candidate preferences can both push cutoffs upward.
B.J. Medical College, Ahmedabad moved from rank 2,607 in 2023 to 4,016 in 2025 (the cutoff rank rose by 1,409).
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.
Use the College Predictor to see which colleges match your rank and category. Then use the Choice Filler to build an optimised preference list you can submit during counselling.
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 Gujarat category guide explains eligibility requirements and document checklists for each category.
