There are 28 boys and 22 girls in the first 50 positions.

Officials said that there is no need to worry if any students do not have names in these state level ranks, they can apply later during counseling. By mistake, some rankers' names may have gone to other states. While the top 1000 rankers in the state are likely to join the All India seats, the rest will join the state level colleges, say Kaloji University sources.

However, the university said that only half of the seats will be filled with those who are eligible for EWS quota. The rest of the seats will be allotted to SC, BC and ST students.

5,965 seats in the state
There are 5,965 MBBS seats available for the medical academic year 2022-23 in both government and private medical colleges in Telangana.
