What is INI CET?
INI CET stands for Institute of National Importance Common Entrance Test. It is a national-level entrance exam for students who want to study postgraduate medical courses. These courses include MD (Doctor of Medicine) and MS (Master of Surgery). Top medical institutions in India, like AIIMS, JIPMER, PGIMER, and NIMHANS, use INI CET scores for admission to their postgraduate programs.
Understanding Mock Allotment
A mock allotment is like a trial run for the main seat allocation process. It shows students which college and medical course they might get. This is based on their score in the INI CET exam and the list of colleges they chose earlier. Students fill their choices of colleges and courses in order of preference. The mock allotment gives them an idea of where they stand. It helps them see if their chosen colleges are realistic with their rank. Remember, the mock allotment is only for guidance. It does not mean a student has secured a seat.

Why Mock Allotment is Important for Students
The mock allotment helps students make better decisions for the final counselling rounds. It is a chance to review their choices. Students should carefully look at the college and course they have been 'mock allotted'. If a student got a college or course different from their expectation, they can think about changing their preferences. For example, if a student expected a top college but got a different one in the mock round, they can re-order their choices. They might move colleges they want more higher up their list. Or they might consider adding more options. This helps them improve their chances for the final admission rounds. This step is a key part of the counselling process. It allows students to make informed choices for their medical education.
Next Steps: Editing College Preferences
After checking the mock allotment, students have a short time to change their college and course choices. This option is available from December 12, 2025 , to December 13, 2025 . Students must log in to the AIIMS portal again during these dates. They can add new colleges or courses, remove existing ones, or change the order of their preferences. This updated list of choices will be used for the final seat allotment. It is important to submit the revised choices before the deadline. If a student does not change choices, their earlier choices will be used for the final allotment.
Mock Allotment is Not Final
It is important to remember that the mock allotment is not the final seat allocation. It is only for students to get an idea and prepare their final choices. Inclusion in the mock allotment does not guarantee a seat in the final allotment. Final admission will be based on the actual seat allocation rounds that follow.
