Introduction
The Karnataka MBBS Counselling 2025 Round 3 is about to begin, and for students with low NEET scores, this round is going to be one of the toughest battles. While Round 2 saw benefits for low scorers (even students with just qualifying marks ~144 getting seats under NRI quota conversion), Round 3 will be different. With fewer seats left and higher competition, aspirants must prepare for strong challenges.

Why Round 3 in Karnataka Will Be Difficult for Low Score Students
-
NRI Quota Conversion Already Happened
-
In Round 2, several NRI quota MBBS seats in Karnataka converted to the Open Quota, allowing even students with low scores (~144, just qualifying) to secure admission.
-
This option will not be available in Round 3, meaning low scorers must compete in a tougher pool.
-
-
High Demand, Low Supply
-
Seats are limited in Karnataka Round 3, but the number of students applying (especially those with low scores) is very high.
-
Colleges now hold the upper hand in negotiations.
-
-
Fee Negotiations Are Tougher
-
Traditionally, Karnataka private medical colleges allowed some fee negotiation under management quota.
-
This year, colleges are less flexible due to high demand, leaving students with fewer bargaining opportunities.
-
