Sorry, but you won't be able to get admission at Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences, Kadapa with 7k rank. This is because, the cutoff for the General Medicine specialisation for the General AI category candidates stood at 3865. Even, candidates with OBC AI quota also, won't be able to get the required course at this rank. The Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences, Kadapa cutoff 2024 for the NEET PG under OBC AI category stood at 5120.
