Tamil Nadu is home to more deemed medical universities than any other state — and was also the weakest state in our cutoff research, with the state's own Selection Committee closing ranks largely unpublished in aggregated form. Here's what we could verify.
Caution — AIQ quota only This is the 15% All India Quota allotment at Tamil Nadu-located colleges, not Tamil Nadu's own state Selection Committee quota (OC/BC/BCM/MBC/SC/SCA/ST). Genuine TN state-quota 2025 closing ranks weren't found in a usable form — TN was the weakest state in our research pass; the authoritative source is the state's own portal, tnmedicalselection.net.

No official body publishes a clean "closing rank by category" summary table. Counselling authorities release raw, candidate-wise allotment PDFs running to thousands of rows. Every closing-rank figure on this page is compiled from either an official portal (via a news report, marked Official) or an education-consultancy aggregation of that official data (marked Consultancy-aggregated) — each table is labelled with its year and round, because these numbers move round to round and year to year.
Fee figures move too: India has no central PG-fee regulator, so colleges revise tuition most academic years. Treat every number on this page as a planning range, and confirm the specific college/branch/year with the college's own admission cell and the official counselling authority (MCC at mcc.nic.in, or the state DME/DGHS) before paying anything or finalising a choice.
