Counselling is done on the bases of General Rank , now you will have one think in mind that than . What's the use of the Girls/OBC/SC/Armed Forces rank ?

Let me give you the following examples to tell you how counselling is done in UPSEE .

Just imagine there is a college with 1000 seats out of which the reservation are as follows
1. OBC : 250 seats
2. Sc/ST : 250 seats
3. Girls : 100 seats
4. Freedom fighter : 50 seats
5. Armed Forces : 50 seats
6. PwD : 30 seats
7. General : 270 seats

and you have got a rank of 700 in General and 90 in girls , so if you see . You will not get the college on the bases of your Gen rank (because there are only 270 seats in Gen category and you have got 700 , but because of your Girls quota you will get a seat)

Let us assume a hypothetical situation that 150 Girls gave the exam , so if you see closely . First 100 will sure shot gets a college and if remaining 50 gets a rank under 1000 , they will also get a college (and in this situation a general guy will have to suffer because a general seat will be less)

To make things more clear , let us think this way

• AIR 1 in UPSEE will have the option of choosing any college & Branch.
• AIR 10 and OBC (1 Rank) will also have the same option of choosing any college & Branch.
• Similarly Rank 1 of each category will have the option of choosing which ever college they want .
• Once the general category of a particular college fills  up , then the reservation comes handy .
• Thats why you see a OBC guy with more AIR gets an better college than a general guy with less AIR.

So your category rank will surely help you , but your counselling will be done on General Rank.
