Candidates should confirm the applicable fee at the time of counselling, as fees may be revised annually.
Ques. How many seats are available for MS Orthopaedics at SGT University, and what is the AIQ vs state quota split?
Ans. SGT University has an NMC-approved annual intake of 4 seats for MS Orthopaedics. As per MCC counselling norms for private medical colleges, 50% of seats (approximately 2) fall under the All India Quota (AIQ) managed by MCC, and the remaining 50% (approximately 2) are state quota seats managed by Haryana DMER. With only 4 seats available annually, competition is extremely intense and a strong NEET PG rank is essential to secure admission in either quota.
Ques. What NEET PG score is typically needed to get MS Orthopaedics at SGT University?
Ans. Based on historical Haryana DMER state quota counselling data, the cutoff for MS Orthopaedics at SGT University has ranged between NEET PG scores of approximately 342 to 522 in recent years (2021-2022 data). The AIQ cutoff tends to be higher. Given the very limited seat availability (4 seats total), even candidates with competitive scores may not always secure admission. Candidates are strongly advised to check the latest MCC and DMER Haryana seat allotment results for the most current cutoff trends, as these vary each year based on the candidate pool and seat matrix.
