What Candidates Should Check Before Choice Filling
First, confirm that the seat belongs to the course and college you intend to join. Second, check whether the vacancy is under government quota or management quota and read the applicable category column carefully. Third, review official eligibility, tuition fees, required documents and any current counselling instructions before submitting a preference. The uploaded vacancy PDF does not state a new registration deadline, choice-locking deadline, allotment date or fee schedule; none should be inferred from this seat list.
Candidates who applied in an earlier round should not assume their previous choices automatically carry forward. Check the current round instructions on the Tamil Nadu Selection Committee portal and keep copies of the submitted preferences and payment receipts where applicable. Vacancies may change as authorities publish updated matrices or account for admission, resignation and eligibility adjustments. The correct reference for a final decision is the latest official round-specific notice, not an earlier seat snapshot or an unofficial prediction.
How to Download and Read the Tamil Nadu MBBS/BDS Seat Matrix
Visit the Selection Committee website, open the MBBS/BDS notifications, and locate the tentative vacancy list dated November 4, 2026. Review the medical and dental sections separately, note the college name and total, and then inspect the individual government, management and minority quota columns. Save the PDF for reference, but recheck the portal immediately before locking choices. If the November 4 PDF is not visible on the notice page, use the latest published update rather than assuming that an older vacancy list is identical.
