By the end of three rounds of MBBS counseling for the 2026–27 academic year, 3,543 out of the total 4,581 convenor quota seats (77.34%) were allocated to SC, ST, and BC category students. The registrar highlighted that reserved candidates achieved significant representation based on merit.

Out of 2,026 open category seats, 1,213 seats (59.87%) were secured by reserved category candidates based purely on merit, showing an increase compared to last year's 51.57%. The university dismissed allegations that GO 102 adversely affected reserved category students.

The registrar added that if a meritorious reserved candidate vacates an open category seat, that vacant slot is filled by the next candidate from the respective reserved category as per regulations.
