Hello Aditya,

The Armed Forces Medical College (AFMC), Pune, began reserving seats for Other Backward Classes (OBC) candidates in its MBBS program starting from the 2021 admission cycle . This change aligned with the Government of India's decision to implement a 27% reservation for OBCs in the All India Quota (AIQ) scheme for medical courses, which was introduced in 2021 .

AFMC MBBS Seat Reservation Overview

  • Total Seats : 150

    • General Category : 130 seats

    • Scheduled Castes (SC) : 7 seats

    • Scheduled Tribes (ST) : 3 seats

    • Other Backward Classes (OBC) : 27 seats

    • Foreign Students (sponsored by the Ministry of External Affairs) : 5 seats

It's important to note that AFMC does not follow the standard AIQ reservation system but has its own reservation policy based on NEET scores and merit.
