Foreign Medical Graduates (FMGs) are eligible for INI-CET counselling if they meet certain conditions. They must have an MBBS degree from a recognised foreign university and a valid FMGE pass certificate, Along with this, FMGs must have completed a 12- month rotatory internship before the last date of application and must also hold a valid registration certification from the NMC or state medical council .

Hello Kavin,

Since you have filled the General category for INI-CET May 2025 due to not having an OBC certificate ready, you are wondering if you can change your category to OBC for the November 2025 attempt. The answer depends on the exam rules followed by AIIMS for INI-CET.

1. Fresh Registration for Each Session
AIIMS conducts INI-CET twice a year—in May and November. For every new session, candidates are required to complete a fresh registration process. This means you can update your details, including category, in the next attempt. So, if you have your valid OBC (NCL) certificate by that time, you can apply under the OBC category during INI-CET November 2025 registration.

2. Category Certificate Requirements
AIIMS requires the OBC certificate to be issued within a specific timeframe (usually within 1 year of the exam date and in the prescribed format). So, you should apply for your OBC certificate well in advance. Ensure it mentions “Non-Creamy Layer” and follows the exact AIIMS format; otherwise, it may get rejected.

3. No Change During the Same Session
Once you have submitted your application for INI-CET May 2025 under the General category, you cannot change it later for that attempt. The system does not allow mid-process corrections in category after final submission.

4. Next Attempt – November 2025
During the November 2025 registration, you can start fresh and select the OBC category. This will allow you to avail reservation benefits in that attempt.

In short: You cannot change your category for May 2025, but you can register afresh in November 2025 under OBC if you get your certificate ready in the correct format.

With a rank of 17500 in the INICET, securing an MD seat in Pathology (Path) or Microbiology (Micro) in top-tier institutions might be challenging, but it's not impossible, depending on the year's cutoff trends and seat availability. Here are some considerations:

1. Cutoff Trends : Examine the previous years' cutoffs for MD Pathology and Microbiology in institutions you are targeting. This will give you a realistic idea of your chances. Typically, these specializations have slightly higher cutoffs compared to more competitive fields like General Medicine or Surgery.

2. Institution Preferences : Lesser-known institutions or those in less sought-after locations might have lower cutoffs, increasing your chances of securing a seat. Be open to considering a wider range of colleges.

3. Counseling Participation : Actively participate in all rounds of counseling. Sometimes, seats become available in later rounds as other candidates shift their preferences.

4. Alternative Pathways : If you don't secure a seat in the first attempt, consider preparing for the next session of INICET or exploring other entrance exams like NEET PG, which might offer more opportunities.

Persistence and flexibility in your choices will improve your chances of securing a seat in your desired specialization.

hope this helps you!!
