Why Private Seats Stayed Vacant
Earlier reports cited the heavy fees of private medical colleges, said to reach up to ₹1.5 crore for MBBS in some colleges, as a major reason for vacant seats. Many students took admission in states like Uttar Pradesh because of the large fee gap. This year Rajasthan's counselling had 7,433 MBBS seats in 51 medical colleges, of which only 2,274 were low-fee seats. The closing rank for government MBBS in Rajasthan was about 23,931 (AIR).
