Bihar NEET PG 2026: ENT Round 1 Opening and Closing Ranks 

As per the Round 1 counselling details, state-operated institutions such as Patna Medical College (PMCH), Nalanda Medical College (NMC) Patna, and IGIMS Patna have much lower cut-off ranks, especially for the reserved categories. 

While for PMCH, the last rank for BC seat was 14,039 and for NMC Patna, the last rank for EBC bracket of seats was 23,075. While the closing ranks for open seats for private and minority institutions, including Madhubani Medical College, Netaji Subhas Medical College, and RDJM Muzaffarpur are much wider than these ranks, with the last rank filtering above 144,000 in case of these institutions. 

In addition, the educational institutions that show a big gap between opening and closing rank like Lord Budha Koshi, MGMMC Kishanganj, and NMC Sasaram show a significant variation of the ranks due to different kinds of sub-allocations or minority quotas made during Phase 1.

What is CAT in Bihar NEET PG? 

In Bihar NEET PG (PGMAC) counseling, the term CAT means Category Rank, which indicates the position of the candidate within only the community (such as SC, ST, EBC, BC, or EWS) rather than the entrance examination for MBA. The opening and closing ranks regarding CAT in the official BCECEB seat allotment lists calculate the allocation of seats for reserved category candidates by means of competition among the particular community, thus existing in parallel with the overall All India NEET-PG ranks.
